Read the passage and answer. Overall, we find that post-Asian crisis up to mid-2004 the Indian stock market

certainly did not function in relative isolation from the rest of Asia and the US. On a daily basis the Indian index is most highly correlated with the Singapore STI index, and is also very highly correlated with the stock indices of Malaysia, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand, while, the least correlation is observed with the US S&P500 index. Stock returns in India are seen to be highly correlated with returns in major markets like Hong Kong, Singapore and Korea, and also with Thailand and Taiwan, while the lowest correlations are observed with US and Japanese returns. Stock return in India is in recent times definitely led by major stock index returns in the US, such as the DJIA and to a lesser extent the S&P500, Japan, as well as other Asian markets such as those of Hong Kong, South Korea and Singapore. More importantly, during the period of our study, returns on the Indian

BSE Sensex, is also seen to exert considerable influence on stock returns in Japan and Korea, along with Taiwan and to an extent Malaysia, though with a low probability.

Further, despite some existing restrictions on capital flows, the Indian market is seen to belong to the group of Asian markets cointegrated within themselves and with the US market.


which of the following is / are correct:

Indian stocks have negative correlation with US stock markets

Indian stocks move closely with US stock markets in comparison to other markets

Indian stocks are able to influence US,Taiwan and Singapore markets

Asian Stocks move very closely with each other and also have some common movements with US and other stock markets.

Solve the passage . . .questions next page. . Volatility estimation is important for several reasons and for different people in the market. Pricing of securities is supposed to be dependent on volatility of each asset. In this paper we not only extend the study period of the earlier paper but also expand coverage in terms of number of countries and statistical techniques. Mature markets / Developed markets continue to provide over long period of time high return with low volatility. Amongst emerging markets except India and China, all other countries exhibited low returns (sometimes negative returns with high volatility). India with long history and China with short history, both provide as high a return as the US and the UK market could provide but the volatility in both countries is higher. The third and fourth order moments exhibit large asymmetry in some of the developed markets. Comparatively, Indian market show less of skewness and Kurtosis. Indian markets have started becoming informationaly more efficient. Contrary to the popular perception in the recent past, volatility has not gone up. Intra day volatility is also very much under control and has came down compared to past years


Questions. What should be the title of this

passage:1. Stock market Interlinkages2. Stock markets in India3. Stock market Boom4. India v/s developed countries. Answer : 1.


Question : Indian stock market has over the

years : Stabilised, or become volatile or

become turbulent or has shown low returns

Answer : stabilised.


Read the passage and answer question in next page. . This study investigates the long-term interlinkages among the Indian stock

market with that of other developed as well as emerging countries and has tried to explore the possibility of potential diversification benefits for foreign investors to participate in the Indian equity market. This study applies the Engel-Granger test of causality and cointegration and the Geweke measure of feedback to empirically investigate the hypothesis that the Indian stock market is not cointegrated with other national markets in the long run and there is no cause and effect relationship among those markets. Our results, based on the daily data from January 1996 to June 2004, ensure that except in case of Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Korea, Thailand and Greece, none of the developed as well as emerging countries selected in this study are integrated (in the long run) with Indian stock market. Though, the Geweke statistics show that there are some contemporaneous and/or lead-lag relationships among those markets in a short period of time and such relationship varies from period to period. Therefore, there is a greater chance for the international investors to enhance their potential diversification benefits through allocating a part of their resources in the Indian equity market.
