Relationships among Energy Price Shocks, Stock Market, and the Macroeconomy: Evidence from China

Cong, Ronggang LU and Shen, Shaochuan (2013) In The Scientific World Journal
Abstract
This paper investigates the interactive relationships among China energy price shocks, stock market, and themacroeconomy using

multivariate vector autoregression.The results indicate that there is a long cointegration among them. A 1% rise in the energy price

index can depress the stock market index by 0.54% and the industrial value-adding growth by 0.037%. Energy price shocks also

cause inflation and have a 5-month lag effect on stock market, which may result in the stock market “underreacting.” The energy

price can explain stock market fluctuations better than the interest rate over a longer time period. Consequently, investors should

pay greater attention to the long-term effect of energy on... (More)
