Stock returns and foreign investment in Brazil
No full textWe examine the relationship between stock returns and foreign investment in Brazil, and find that the inflows of foreign investment boosted the returns from 1995 to 2005. There was a strong contemporaneous correlation, although not Granger-causality. Foreign investment along with the exchange rate, the influence of the world stock markets, and country risk can explain 73 percent of the changes that occurred in the stock returns over the period. We also find that positive feedback trading played a role, and that the market promptly assimilated new information.stock returns; foreign investment; Brazilian economy

Stock market development and financial intermediaries : stylized facts
No full textWorld stock markets are booming. Between 1982 and 1993, stock market capitalization grew from 10 trillion, an average 15 percent a year. A disproportionate amount of this growth was in emerging stock markets, which rose from 3 percent of world stock markets capitalization to 14 percent in the same period. Yet there is little empirical evidence about how important stock markets are to long-term economic development. Economists have neither a common concept nor a common measure of stock market development, so we know little about how stock market development affects the rest of the financial system or how corporations finance themselves. The authors collected and compared many different indicators of stock market development using data on 41 countries from 1986 to 1993. Each indicator has statistical and conceptual shortcomings, so they used different measures of stock market size, liquidity, concentration, and volatility, of institutional development, and of international integration. Their goal: to summarize infromation about a variety of indicators for stock market development, in order to facilitate research into the links between stock markets, economic development, and corporate financing decisions. They highlight certain important correlations: (i) In the 41 countries they studied, there are enormous cross-country differences in the level of stock market development for each indicator. The ratio of market capitalization to the gross domestic product (GDP), for example, is greater than 1 in five countries and less than 0.10 in five others. (ii) There are intuitively appealing correlations among indicators. For example, big markets tend to be less volatile, more liquid, and less concentrated in a few stocks. Internationally integrated markets tend to be less volatile. And institutionally developed markets tend to be large and liquid. (iii) The three most developed markets are in Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The most underdeveloped markets are in Colombia, Nigeria, Venezuela, and Zimbabwe. Malaysia, the Republic of Korea, and Switzerland seem to have highly developed stock market, whereas Argentina, Greece, Pakistan and Turkey have underdeveloped in richer countries, but many markets commonly labeled"emerging"(for example, in Korea, Malaysia,and Thailand) are systematically more developed than markets commonly labeled"developed"(for example, in Australia, Canada, and many European countries). (iv) Between 1986 and 1993, some markets developed rapidly in size, liquidity, and international integration. Indonesia, Portugal, Turkey, and Venezuela experienced explosive development, for example. Case studies on the reasons for (and economic consequences of) this rapid development could yield valuable insights. (v) The level of stock market development is highly correlated with the development of banks, nonbank financial institutions (finance companies, mutual funds, brokerage houses), insurance companies, and private pension funds.Markets and Market Access,Economic Theory&Research,Health Economics&Finance,Payment Systems&Infrastructure,Banks&Banking Reform,Economic Theory&Research,Health Economics&Finance,Access to Markets,Markets and Market Access,Banks&Banking Reform

Stock-dependent forcing in stock and recruitment relationships
No full textNo abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. Responses of fish populations to climate change involves the linkage between climate-change variables and stock and recruitment. Stock and recruitment theory links recruitment with egg production via a density-dependent mortality function. The density-dependent mortality function is required to explain the relative stability of recruitment (potential variability in egg production is many orders of magnitude greater than variation in recruitment). Yet, despite this requirement, the fit of actual stock and recruitment data to the stock and recruitment theory is generally quite poor. In this paper we focus on the sensitivity of changes in recruitment to changes in egg production and prerecruit mortality given some stock-recruitment relationship. We demonstrate that recruitment variability is more sensitive to changes in egg production when egg production is relatively small. In contrast, recruitment variability is more sensitive to changes in mortality when the stock is relatively large. Generally, egg production is driven by fishing and factors affecting adult fish, and mortality is driven by biological-physical interactions mostly affecting early life-history stages. Thus, variables that change with the magnitude of egg production must be an important unacknowledged source of error in stock and recruitment and in linking climate change with fish population variability

In this theses the author came into the conclusion that both of the monitored stock markets are really influenced by macroeconomical factors to a certain extent. The result is that every investor should take into consideration the important impact and influence of these factors while implementing their investments.Tato práce charakterizuje hlavní složky akciového trhu v USA a České republice a zkoumá možné vlivy především makroekonomických faktorů na pohyby akciových kurzů.
