Examining the Relationship between the Economic Discontent Index and BIST Bank Index with Wavelet Analysis
Öz
Financial markets are influenced by numerous factors, such as economic indicators, investor confidence, and macroeconomic conditions. Among these, the Economic Discontent Index is an essential measure reflecting the public's economic discontent, which can subsequently influence investor behavior and market performance. The BIST Bank Index, which represents the performance of banking stocks in Borsa Istanbul (BIST), is a critical component of Türkiye's financial ecosystem. Therefore, this study aims to investigate whether there is a relationship between the economic discontent index and the BIST Bank Index. Traditional econometric analysis methods may be insufficient to explain the non-linear and multiscale nature of these relationships fully. For this reason, the study analyses the relationship between economic discontent and the banking index from a multiresolution perspective using the Wavelet transform. As a result of the study, it is concluded that there is no relationship between the economic discontent index and the BIST banking index in the long run. At the same time, there is a relationship in the short run only in 2017 and 2018. Keywords: Economic Discontent Index, BIST Bank Index, Wavelet Analysis.
