Volatility Spillovers in the Stock Market

After the recent financial crisis, researchers are interested in studying the dynamics of relationships among the markets and identifying the impact of other markets on the capital market. This paper examines the dynamic conditional correlations and volatility spillovers among capital market and the foreign exchange market, gold, oil and housing market with using the four popular multivariate GARCH models for the period of April 2005 to March 2017. In order to enhance the country's financial resilience in managing financial fluctuations, policy decision making, and risk managing we want to identify volatility spillover to the capital market. The results confirm the volatility spillover from the foreign exchange market, gold market and oil market on the stock market. However, there is not found any evidence for volatility spillover from the housing sector. In addition, the findings indicate there is a positive conditional correlation between the stock market return, foreign exchange market, and the housing market returns.
