a r t i c l e i n f o JEL classification: Q43 F3 G14 G15 Keywords: Stock market returns Oil price fluctuations Gregory–Hansen co-integration test Toda–Yamamoto Granger non-causality test The main focus of this study is to examine how oil price fluctuations influence the performance of stock markets. This study used the causality approach developed by Toda and Yamamoto (1995) to explore the caus...

A remarkable feature of the crude oil market is a dramatic rise in oil price volatility over time which has been accompanied by a substantial fall in oil production volatility. We investigate the sources of this opposite evolution of both oil market variables. Our main …nding is that the observed volatility puzzle can be rationalized by the fact that the price elasticities of both oil supply an...

this paper focuses on the residential sector demand for electricity, natural gas and petroleum products (kerosene, gas oil and lpg) in iran in the context of a popular locally flexible functional forms - “the almost ideal demand system (aids)”. we pay explicit attention to the theoretical regularity conditions of positivity, monotonicity, and curvature. we treat the curvature property as a main...

This paper finds evidence that effect...

in this study, we assess the impact of oil price changes on the macroeconomic variables of some oil importers in oecd countries, including usa, italian, france and japan during the period 1960-2002. the results for different countries imply asymmetric impact of oil price changes on gdp growth rates; moreover, the results show that monetary shocks are an important and noticeable factor explainin...

Hurricanes Katrina and Rita caused severe economic disruptions without warning in Louisiana and surrounding areas. These natural disasters temporarily created production losses in the oil-industry and lead to further economic losses via inter-industry linkages. Because oil is a key resource in the national economy, estimation of the economic impacts of these disasters can be accomplished with a...

Between January 2017 and March 2020 a coalition of oil producers led by OPEC Russia (known as OPEC+) cut production in an attempt to raise the price crude oil. In corona virus shock collapse this coalition, members did not agree on keeping market tight face large negative demand shock. Yet, was OPEC+ actually effective sustaining oil? early when strategy place, inventories fell substantially re...

We study the effects of oil-price shocks on the U.S economy combining narrative and quantitative approaches. After examining daily oil-related events since 1984, we classify them into various event types. We then develop measures of exogenous shocks that avoid endogeneity and predictability concerns. Estimation results indicate that oil-price shocks have had substantial and statistically signif...

This paper studies how changes in oil supply expectations affect the price and macroeconomy. Using a novel identification design, exploiting institutional features of OPEC high-frequency data, I identify an news shock. These shocks have statistically economically significant effects. Negative leads to immediate increase prices, gradual fall production, inventories. has consequences for US econo...
