Empirical Study on the Factors Influencing Stock Market Volatility in China

Abstract

This paper mainly utilizes the ARDL model and principal component analysis to investigate the relationship between the volatility of China's Shanghai Composite Index returns and the variables of exchange rate and domestic and foreign bond yields in an internationally integrated stock market. This paper uses a daily data set for the period from July 1, 2010 to April 30, 2024, in which the dependent variable is the Shanghai Composite Index return, and the main independent variables are the spot exchange rate of the RMB against the US dollar, the 10-year treasury bond yields in China and the United States and their lagged variables, with the effect of the time factor added. Firstly, the development of the stock, foreign exchange and bond markets and the basic theories are reviewed, and then each variable is analyzed by descriptive statistics, the correlation between the independent variables and the dependent variable is expanded theoretically, and the corresponding empirical analyses are briefly introduced, and then the empirical analyses and modeling of the relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variable are carried out on the basis of the theoretical foundations mentioned above with the support of the daily data, and the model conclusions are analyzed economically through a large number of tests, then the model conclusions are analyzed economically. economic analysis of the model conclusions, and finally, the author proposes three suggestions to enhance the stability and return of the Chinese stock market, respectively. Key Words: Chinese Stock Market, Volatility, GARCH, ARDL Model

Local Media and the Shaping of Social Norms: Evidence from the Ebola outbreak

Media's influence on norms and behavior is widely recognized. Less is known about the role played by media being local. I examine this in a high-stakes context, the Ebola outbreak in Guinea. I exploit quasi-random variation in access to radio and the timing of a public-health campaign aired on community radio. I find that 12-17% of Ebola cases could have been prevented if places with access to a neighboring community radio station had instead had their own. Impacts are driven by radio being local rather than by ethno-linguistic belonging. Local media facilitates coordination in behaviors observed and sanctioned locally.

Productivity Shocks and Input Misallocation: A Decomposition

This paper asks how much input misallocation productivity uncertainty generates and at which stage of input decisions it arises. I separate revenue productivity by when each component is revealed and trace each into the gap between an input's marginal revenue product and its price. In six European countries, shocks revealed after an input is committed account for 20 percent of capital gap dispersion and 5 percent of labor gap dispersion. An unanticipated one percent rise in productivity raises the capital gap by 0.92 percent and the labor gap by 0.19 percent, because most of the shock passes into the wage.

When Do Type-Specific Wages Buffer Distributional Incidence in TANK?

When do relative wages buffer the unequal incidence of aggregate shocks? I derive a consumption-gap decomposition and a present-value condition for partial offset in a TANK model. An extension separates wage-setting demand elasticity from substitution between labor segments and allows each segment to contain both financial types. With a zero inherited wage gap and a same-sign discounted wedge, substitution above one gives offsetting earnings reallocation; substitution below one gives amplification. The channel disappears when financial types have identical segment exposure. Numerical experiments assess these mechanisms, shock persistence, policy feedback, and aggregate-IRF matching. In the nested perfect-alignment monetary benchmark, the peak consumption gap is about two-fifths smaller under type-specific wages than under the common-wage closure. These are conditional model comparisons, not empirical effect estimates or welfare rankings.
