TY - SER AU - Al-Khazali Osamah M TI - Srock Prices, Inflation, and Output : Evidence from the Emerging Markets PY - 0000///0 CY - PB - Sept - Dec ,2003 KW - Stock Prizes, Inflation N2 - This article examines the short and long-term relationships between stock prices, inflation, and output in 21 emerging capital markets. It also investigates whether the proxy hypothesis can explain the puzzling negative relation between stock returns and inflation. The study shows that in the short run the negative relationship between stock returns and inflation still persist for all countries except Malaysia, even after the effects of expected economic activity and inflation variability have been explicitly incorporated. Furthermore, the results of the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (GARCH) model are consistent with the OLS results. These results reject the proxy-effect hypothesis in the short run. However, in the long run, cointegration tests verify a long-run equilibrium between stock prices, consumer price index, and the real economic activity. The findings support the fisher effect and the proxy hypotheses in the long run only UR - http://192.168.6.13/libsuite/mm_files/Articles/AR6109.pdf ER -
