| [en] We measure stock market coexceedances using the methodology of Cappiello, Gerard and Manganelli
<br />(2005, ECB Working Paper 501). This method enables us to measure comovement at each point of the <br />return distribution. First, we construct annual coexceedance probabilities for both lower and upper tail <br />return quantiles using daily data from 1974–2006. Next, we explain these probabilities in a panel gravity <br />model framework. Results show that macroeconomic variables asymmetrically impact stock market <br />comovement across the return distribution. Financial liberalization significantly increases left tail comovement, <br />whereas trade integration significantly increases comovement across all quantiles. Decreasing <br />exchange rate volatility results in increasing lower tail comovement. The introduction of the euro <br />increases comovement across the entire return distribution, thereby significantly reducing the benefits <br />of portfolio diversification within the euro area. | |
