Investigation of the role of macroeconomic variables in Tehran Stock Exchange uncertainty using risk filtering, MCMC simulation and ARDL approaches.
In the present study a new total uncertainty criterion in Tehran Stock Exchange was estimated and the impact of macroeconomic variables on this uncertainty was addressed. Risk filtering with an approach to GDFM was first used to detect specific component of 25 time series of the main indices of the Tehran Stock Exchange over 10 years. In the next step, the conditional volatility of the remaining time series’ specific components were estimated using Stochastic volatility (SV) model and finally conditional volatility simulated using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach was averaged to obtain total uncertainty of the Tehran Stock exchange. The ARDL results showed that Tehran Stock Exchange uncertainty is dependent on independent variables such as inflation rate, banks' real interest rate, exchange rate in free Exchange market, liquidity, tax revenue and oil price. According to the results, however, no significant correlation exists between unemployment rate and stock market uncertainty.
