Abstract

Although there are many studies examining the relationship between foreign investor transactions and stock market returns, these studies mostly focus on developed markets. In terms of emerging markets, there is a gap in the literature. This study aims to contribute existing literature by investigating the relationship between foreign investor transactions and BIST returns. Since data period includes a financial crisis, not only conventional tests but also tests that take structural breaks into account are also implemented. At the end of the analyses, a long run relationship is detected between variables. Structural breaks are found in crisis period which is in consistence with expectations. In terms of causality relationship a unidirectional relationship is found from foreign investor transactions to stock market returns. That result is essential since it is an indicator showing directing role of foreign transactions on stock market returns. Directing role of foreign investor transactions on stock markets led emerging stock markets to become fragile.

YABANCI YATIRIMCI İŞLEMLERİNİN BORSA GETİRİLERİNE ETKİSİ

Abstract

Literatürde yabancı yatırımcıların işlemleri ile
hisse senedi piyasası getirileri arasındaki ilişkiyi inceleyen birçok çalışma
olmasına rağmen, bu çalışmaların çoğu gelişmiş piyasaları incelemektedir. Gelişmekte
olan piyasalar açısından literatürde bir açık vardır. Bu çalışma söz konusu
ilişkiyi finansal krizlerin etkisini de dikkate alarak inceleyerek var olan
literatüre katkıda bulunmayı amaçlamaktadır. İncelenen dönemin finansal kriz
dönemini içermesi nedeniyle çalışmada standart testlerin yanı sıra yapısal
kırılmaları dikkate alan testlerde uygulanmıştır. Analizlerin sonucunda
değişkenler arasında uzun dönemli bir ilişki bulunmuştur. Beklentiye paralel olarak
finansal kriz döneminde kırılmalar gözlemlenmiştir. Nedensellik ilişkisine
bakıldığında ise yabancı yatırımcı işlemlerinden borsa getirisine doğru bir
ilişki tespit edilmiştir. Bu sonuç yabancı yatırımcıların işlemlerinin borsa
getirilerini yönlendirme rolünü göstermesi bakımından önemlidir. Yabancı
yatırımcıların işlemlerinin borsayı yönlendirme rolü, gelişmekte olan
piyasaları kırılgan hale getirmektedir.
