Abstract:
We introduce a new theoretically-based method of estimating the impact of the exchange rate and GDP on the stock market. In doing so, we utilize the new stochastic-factor model (a recent development in mathematical finance). Our results indicate a strong negative relationship between the stock index and the exchange rate, and a strong positive relationship between the stock index and GDP. - In questo studio viene introdotto un nuovo metodo teorico per la valutazione dell’impatto del tasso di cambio e del PIL sul mercato azionario. Per effettuare questa stima si utilizza il modello a stocasticità fattoriale (recentemente sviluppato nella matematica finanziaria). I risultati ottenuti indicano una relazione fortemente negativa tra l’indice azionario e il tasso di cambio ed una relazione fortemente positiva tra l’indice azionario e il PIL.
