This study aims to investigate the interactions, volatility spillovers and smooth transition effects between stock and foreign exchange markets in emerging versus developed countries by the Smooth Transition Vector Error Correction-Smooth Transition GARCH with Dynamic Conditional Correlation model (STVESTGARCH-DCC). The empirical results yield several findings. Firstly, boom stock markets in emerging countries will trigger their domestic currency appreciation, while prosperous stock markets in developed countries result in currency depreciation. |
