A note on the interaction between stock prices and exchange rates in Middle-East economies

Abstract: Ample studies have been conducted to analyse the interaction between stock prices and exchange rates in developed and developing countries. However, studies on Middle-East economies are limited. Moreover, many existing studies test for Granger causality in a bi-variate setting which in turn leads to conflicting causality results. The goal of this study is to investigate the causal interaction between stock prices and exchange rates empirically in Iran, Kuwait, Oman and Saudi Arabia from January 2004 to Decembe… Show more

“…Results indicate that stock markets respond to an impulse in their local currencies (except for stock markets in Jordan and Oman where the response were negligible as compared to other markets). The results are in accordance with Parsva and Tang () who find evidence of causality among foreign exchange rates and stock markets in a group of GCC countries, and also in line with Parsva and Lean () who affirm the interdependence of stock markets and foreign exchange rates for a group of MENA countries.…”

“…While Parsva and Tang (2017) found a biderectional causality between exchange rates and stock prices in three of the four Middle East countries namely Iran, Oman and Saudi Arabia during January 2004 and December 2011, Quadir (2012) found that although there was a positive relationship between macroeconomic variables i.e treasury bill interest rate and production industrial sector on stock returns in Dhaka Exchange Rate during January 2000 to February 2007, but he concluded no significance among the variables studied. Patel (2012) states that in the long run there is a relationship between macroeconomic variables and stock indices in India from January 1991 to December 2011.…”
