The local stock market tends to appreciate when the value of the currency depreciates. However, In emerging markets the stock market depreciates when the value of the currency depreciates.
true or false?作者: PalacioHill 时间: 2011-7-13 13:05
There is a positive correlation between currency and market return for emerging markets, but I think you setup a trap in your question since you are implying a cause and effect.
I think it would be the reverse, stock market decline causes currency decline since investors are trying to pull out their funds.

False, most emerging markets are export oriented...if currency depreciates, exports become cheaper, revenues should increase, stock price increases作者: skycfa 时间: 2011-7-13 13:05
