Stock Prices and Exchange Rates in Australia: Are Commodity Prices the Missing Link?

Abstract: The relationship between stock prices and exchange rates is an important topic of long standing. But there are still significant gaps in our knowledge of this area, not least, the ambiguity about the sign of the effect of a change in one of these variables on the other. While there are many possible reasons for this ambiguity, one which we explore in the Australian context in this paper is the omission of commodity prices. We show that a bivariate relationship which omits commodity prices performs badly but th… Show more

“…Chkili et al (2012) used univariate and multivariate GARCH-type models and found bilateral relationships between stock and foreign exchange markets in France and Germany. Groenwold and Paterson (2013) found a weak correlation between stock prices and exchange rates, but a strong relationship between exchange rates and commodity prices. According to the authors, assuming that commodity prices are influencing stock prices, there will often be a sway between stock prices and exchange rates.…”

“…However, when the oil price is considered, exchange rates are positively related to stock prices in Egypt and Oman. Groenewold and Paterson (2013) in a study on Australia from 1979 to 2010 revealed that the relationship between exchange rates and stock prices is weak when omitting global commodity prices. Nevertheless, once global commodity prices are added, all three variables are cointegrated in the long run.…”

“…The study was depended on the data from Jan 1995 to Jan 2010 and no relationship was found (Zia & Rahman , 2011). Despite the strong impact of the exchange rates on the stock indices, Groenewold and Paterson (2011) claim that there is a clear gap in our knowledge about the effects of exchange rate on stock prices.…”

“…Their study proved that a strong relationship exists between the determined variables. Furthermore, it is mentioned that a change in one variable can change the direction of the other one (Groenewold & Paterson , 2011). Parsva and Lean (2011) According to their data which have been taken from Jan 2007 to Jul 2009 it has been investigated that the exchange rates have a positive influence over the BIST-100 index and the results were supported by the GC test (Savaş & Can, 2011).…”
