Abstract

Bugün dünya üzerinde işlem yapılan tüm piyasalar için risk ve belirsizlik büyük önem arz etmektedir. Özellikle finansal piyasaların en aktif pazarları olan ülke borsalarında bu durum daha belirgin olarak görülebilmektedir. Hatta dünyanın önde gelen ülke borsalarında gerçekleşen ekonomik, politik, finansal belirsizliklerin birçok ülke borsalarında getiri kaybına sebep olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada ise seçili gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkelerde))))) bu durum araştırılmak istenmiştir. Buna bağlı olarak Ocak 2015-Kasım 2020 dönemleri arasında G7 ve BRIC ülkelerinde her ülke için hesaplanan ekonomik politik belirsizlik endeksi (EPU) ile ülkelerin borsaları arasında bir ilişkinin varlığı sorgulanmıştır. Konya panel nedensellik testi kullanılarak yapılan analizler neticesinde, panellerin genelinde EPU’dan borsalara doğru tek yönlü nedensellik olduğu görülmüştür. Elde edilen sonuçlar ülkeler bazında değerlendirildiğinde İngiltere, Amerika ve Brezilya için EPU endeksinden Borsalara doğru tek yönlü bir nedensellik gerçekleşirken, yalnızca Almanya için iki yönlü bir nedenselliğin varlığı tespit edilmiştir. Bunun dışından diğer ülkelerde herhangi bir nedensellik bulgusuna rastlanmamıştır.

Abstract

Today, risk and uncertainty are of great importance for all markets traded around the world. This situation can be seen more clearly in the stock markets of countries, which are the most active markets of financial markets in particular. In fact, economic, political and financial uncertainties in the world's leading countries' stock exchanges cause loss of returns in the stock markets of many countries. In this study, it is aimed to investigate this situation in selected developed and developing countries. However, it was questioned the existence of a relationship between the economic and political uncertainty index (EPU) calculated for each country in G7 and BRIC countries and the stock markets of the countries in period of the January 2015 and November 2020. As a result of the analysis using the Konya panel causality test, it was observed that there was unidirectional causality from EPU to stock markets throughout the panels. Among these countries, it was found results a unidirectional causality from the EPU index to the Stock Markets for UK, US and Brazil, while a bidirectional causality occurred only for Germany. Apart from this, it was observed that neither unidirectional nor directional causal relationship accurred in other countries.
