In this paper, it has been aimed to reveal the possible effects of Covid-19 Coronavirus epidemic on stock markets. In the analysis using daily data between 23 January 2020 and 13 March 2020, possible effects on stock markets has been investigated with Maki (2012) cointegration test using both Covid-19 daily total death and Covid-19 daily total case. According to the results obtained, all stock markets examined with total death act together in the long run. It has been understood that total cases have cointegration relationship of SSE, KOSPI and IBEX35 and do not have cointegration relationship with FTSE MIB, CAC40, DAX30. In this regard, it is considered as one of the optimal option for investors to avoid investments in stock markets, turn to investment in gold markets, which is the safe investment port of each crisis period in long run. Also, considering the possibility of turning all life into an internet environment, turning to cryptocurrencies is seen as another alternative option for investors. In this direction, it will be the preference of investors to turn to derivative markets and to the stock markets of countries where Covid-19 is relatively rare to avoid risk.

“…Particularly, growing joblessness and underemployment are challenges for both developed and less developed countries (Dietrich and Möller 2016). The world is experiencing slowed economic development as well as growing unemployment resulting from economic crises and health pandemics (Abel et al 2014;Khan and Faisal 2020;Ruiz Estrada et al 2020). This is in addition to the population boom and growing urbanization in Africa (Awiti and Scott 2016;Gerland et al 2014;Sulemana et al 2019).…”

Increasingly, graduates are taking much more time in the transition from school to work. Recent research suggests that the ability to adjust quickly plays a key role in the transition process. This is even more important today given the tough labor market realities such as exacerbated unemployment levels and global competitions for the few available job openings. Yet new graduates often lack experience and certain skills that employers look for. Those unable to maneuver through the School-To-Work Transition (STWT) quickly may experience further challenges in their career development process. Using a sample of 516 students in their final semester of their university studies in Ugandan and Kenya, the present study examines the role of psychological resources, namely psychological capital and the mechanisms (i.e. Career Engagement-CE, Perceived Employability-PE) through which it works to affect students' readiness for STWT as well as positively evaluating their career success. The major findings of the study reveal substantial positive direct effects of psychological capital on perceived employability, readiness for STWT, and career satisfaction. The double mediation results show that psychological capital indirectly affects the readiness for STWT via career engagement and internal PE, while psychological capital indirectly affects career satisfaction via career engagement and external PE. The implications of these results are discussed.

“…There are studies done across the globe on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on stock markets and returns (Zhang et al, 2020;Pavlyshenko, 2020;Sharif et al, 2020;Topcu & Gulal, 2020;Albulescu, 2020;Mubarok & Al Arif, 2021), the effect of the pandemic on the economy (Ayittey et al, 2020;Estrada et al, 2020;Luo & Tsang, 2020), COVID-19 and financial markets (Baig et al, 2020;Gormsen & Koijen, 2020;He et al, 2020;Singh et al, 2020;Zaremba et al, 2020;Zeren & Hizarci, 2020). It is observed that stock markets are interdependent in various countries as the stock markets more or less behaved the same (Amar et al, 2020;Cepoi, 2020;Okorie & Lin, 2021).…”

How Did The Financial Markets Respond to The COVID-19 Pandemic? Empirical Evidence from BRICS Countries

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The paper aims to evaluate the reaction of stock markets in BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study uses ARCH and GARCH models that use daily stock prices from January 1, 2020, to September 2, 2020. The financial market response was analyzed in two phases. The first phase analyses the financial markets' response within 30 to 60 days from the first day of confirmed cases of COVID-19. The second phase analyses the financial market response post 30 to 60 days of initial confirmed cases. The study results conclude that the share prices decreased, but in the second phase, the markets responded positively. Our results conclude that governmental support played an important role in mitigating the repercussions of the COVID-19 outbreak on stock markets in BRICS countries.JEL Classification: E44, G15, G10How to Cite:Chavali, K., Al Samman, H., & Jamil, S.
