The aim of this paper is to study the degree of interdependence between oil price and stock market index into two groups of countries: oil-importer countries and exporter ones. To this end, we propose a new empirical methodology allowing a time-varying dynamic correlation measure between the...

This paper assesses the impact of oil prices on economic growth of the four major OPEC countries (United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela) over the period spanning from 03/09/2000 to 03/12/2010. We aim at complementing the results from existing analyses (mainly focused on...

This article attempts to examine whether the equity premium in the United States can be predicted from a comprehensive set of 18 economic and financial predictors over a monthly out-of-sample period of 2000:2 to 2011:12, using an in-sample period of 1990:2-2000:1. To do so, we consider, in...

This paper investigates the dilemma of long memory versus a switching regime for the Tunisian real exchange rate (TRER). Empirically, three long memory tests are implemented to examine the long-range dependence in the processes of Tunisian REER. All long memory tests that we used are based on...

This paper explores the relevance of asymmetry and long memory in modeling and forecasting the conditional volatility and market risk of four major commodities (crude oil, natural gas, gold, and sil- ver). A broad set of the most popular linear and nonlinear GARCH-type models is used to...

The aim of this work is to propose a new sequential strategy-three steps testing procedure- based on recently introduced econometric techniques, in order to assess the meanreverting properties of the real exchange rate and to check whether real exchange r
