Te period of sudy daa is from January 3, o June 3, 8. Tis paper also uilizes Suden s disribuion o analyze e proposed model. Te empirical resuls sow a e wo sock markes are muually affeced eac oer, and e dynamic condiional correlaion (DCC) and e biariae asymmeric-garch (, ) model is appropriae in ealuaing e relaion beween em. Te empirical resul also indicaes a Ialy and Germany s sock markes sow a posiie relaionsip. Te aerage alue of correlaion coefficien equals o.844, wic implies a e wo sock markes reurn olailiy ae a syncronized influence on eac oer. In addiion, e empirical resul also sows a ere is an asymmerical effec beween Ialy and e Germany s sock markes, and demonsraes a e good news and bad news of e sock reurns olailiy will produce e differen ariaion risks for Ialy and e Germany s sock price markes. Key words: sock marke reurns; GARCH model; asymmeric effec; GJR-GARCH model; biariae asymmeric GARCH model. Inroducion As is known o all, Germany is one of big eig indusrial counries in e global economical financial sysem and also as been ery influenial in e global economy. Germany is also a counry wi ig producion and in ig income leels, and is social welfare is exremely deeloped and e life is exremely wealy. For example, e domesic producion gross aciees o,49 billion Euros in 5, wic grows.9% compared wi in 4 (daa source: Te Federaion Saisics Bureau). In addiion, e expor alues of German enerprises are occupied /3 of e domesic producion gross. Wen e inesor as an inesmen in inernaional sock marke, e/se will usually care abou e inernaional capial, e moion siuaion, e inernaional poliics and e economical siuaion cange, in paricular, Ialy sock marke cange. Tere is a close relaionsip for Ialy based on e rade and e circulaion of capial wi Germany, bu Germany is also a powerful global economical naion. Terefore, e relaionsip beween Ialy s sock marke and Germany s sock marke is wor furer discussion. Wi e exisence of many reurn olailiy meods (e.g. auoregressie moing aerage (ARMA) model), researcers commonly used o inesigae e relaions beween wo sock markes.

Reurn resold model analysis of wo sock markes: Eidence sudy of Ialy and Germany s sock reurns auoregressie condiionally eeroskedasiciy (ARCH) model and Bollersle (986) proposed e generalized auoregressie condiionally eeroskedasiciy (GARCH) model. According o em, is kind of model is comparaiely beer a cacing e financial propery wile e condiional ariance does no ae e fixed caracerisic. Nelson (99) looked a sock price canges and discoers a ere are bo posiie and negaie relaionsips wi e fuure sock price olailiy. Te GARCH model supposes a e seled ime condiional ariance is a funcion of condiional ariance and an error erm square erm s ime lags. Terefore, error erm s posiie and negaie alues do no respond o is influence on e condiional ariance equaion. Te condiional ariance can only cange along wi e error erm s alue, bu canno go along wi e error erm s posiie and negaie canges. To improe is flaw, Nelson (99) presened an exponenial GARCH model and Glosen, Jagannaan and Runkle (993) gae a resold GARCH model. Tese models are so-called e models of asymmeric-garch. Teir models are adoped by many scolars, wile researcing on e issue of asymmeric problems suc as Horng (7), Brooks (), Poon and Fung (), Crisie (98), Frenc, Scwer and Sambaug (987), Campell and Henscel (99), Koumos and Boo (995) and Koumos (996). Researc on e relaion beween sock marke and e reurn olailiy meod, using muliariae GARCH model, as been growing like musroom. For examples, Yang (5), Yang and Doong (4), Granger, Hung and Yang (), Wang and Barre () and Bollersle (99) ae applied arious biariae GARCH models analyzing sock marke price. Te purpose of is paper is o examine e relaions of Ialy s sock marke and Germany s sock marke, using e DCC and e biariae asymmeric-garch model in consrucing e connecion of e wo sock markes. And using e posiie and negaie alues of sock rerurns olailiy are as e resold. Te organizaion of is paper is as follows: Secion descibes e series caracer of Ialy and Germany sock prices and eir reurns olailiy; Secion 3 inroduces e model of e DCC and e biariae GARCH; Secion 4 presens e asymmeric es of e DCC and e biariae-igarch model; Secion 5 presens e model of e DCC and e biariae asymmeric-garch and is parameers esimaion, and e analysis beween associaed of Ialy and Germany sock reurns; Finally, secion 6 summarizes e conclusions and suggesions of is sudy.. Daa caracerisics. Daa sources Te daa of is researc included e oil price, Ialy and Germany s sock price colleced beween January 3, and June 3, 8. Te source of e sock daa was e Taiwan Economic Journal (TEJ), a daabase in Taiwan. Ialy sock price refers o e MIBTEL sock index, and Germany s sock price refers o DX sock index. During e process of daa analysis, in case a ere was no sock marke price aailable on e side of Ialy s sock marke or Germany s sock marke due o olidays, e idenical ime sock price daa from one side was deleed. Afer is, e ree ariables samples are,4.. Reurns calculaion and rend cars To compue e reurn of Ialy sock marke, e auors adop e naural logarim difference, and ride again. Te reurn of Germany s sock marke also deried from e naural logarim difference, rides again.

Wen e flucuaion of Germany s sock price index grew bigger, Ialy s marke reurn olailiy degree will also became bigger. In addiion, e clusering of Ialy and Germany s sock price reurn olailiy sowed e same paern. I seems a e wo sock markes ae a cerain leel of releance. In oer words, e wo sock prices markes seemed o be inerdependen. Tis is also e main moie for discussing e relaionsips of Ialy and Germany s sock price reurns..3 Basic saisics Table presens e basic saisics of e analysis including e mean alues, sandard deiaions, skewed coefficiens, kurosis coefficiens and e Jarque-Bera normal disribuion es for e sampled period of e oil price olailiy, Ialy and Germany s sock marke reurns. Te kurosis coefficiens were wor menioning. Te wo reurn sequences kurosis coefficiens are bo bigger an 3, wic implies a e normal disribuion es of Jarque-Bera is no normal disribuion. Aloug e iolaion of normal disribuion is no uncommon for financial commodiy ariable, i is more appropriae o carry ou e analysis, using e eay ail disribuion and e GARCH model.

Tis researc used e Ljung-Box (978) es meod, e Lagrange muliplier (LM) es meod proposed by Engle (98) and e F disribuion es meod proposed by Tsay (4). Tese meods were used o furer confirm residual error sequence ariance and decided weer ere was e ARCH effec. In case of e presence of e ARCH effec, e GARCH model would be used o mac suiably. Te ARCH effec es uses e pas q ime lags of e residual error square o carry ou e regression analysis. Te ARCH effec es is based on e AR (3) model in e equaion (4) and equaion (5) as below. Is maemaial form is as follows: a ˆ ˆ L ˆ + () d + d a + + d q a q Te auors es e null ypoeses H : d d L d q by equaion (). Wen H is rejeced, i implies a ere is no effec of ARCH, a is, we can use e model of e GARCH o fi i. LM, F and Ljung-Box (L-B) es meods were employed o examine e sock price dae reurn and examine weer ere was e condiionally eeroskedasiciy penomenon. Te examinaion resul of e ARCH effec es is lised in Table 5.

Terefore, is paper uses e biariae GARCH model o discuss e impac a Ialy s sock marke reurn olailiy as on Germany s sock marke reurn and e relaion beween e wo sock prices markes. 7

Reurn resold model analysis of wo sock markes: Eidence sudy of Ialy and Germany s sock reurns 3. Inroducion of GJR-GARCH model Glosen, Jaganaan and Runkle (993) proposed e GJR-GARCH model. Tis model as e differen influence of e good and bad news on e maerial olailiy. Te general form of GJR-GARCH model may be esablised as follows: were wi a is wie noise, q + i D + D a,, a > denoes good news, and a i i if a if a p η + j > β () j j a denoes bad news. Regarding e GJR-GARCH model, under e good news and bad news, e influences of e condiion error square iem are dissimilar. Take an example wi q, wen ere appears e good news, e error square iems olailiy coefficien is ; Wen appears e bad news, e error square iems olailiy coefficien is +η. Wen η, e impac response of e condiion error square iem is symmerical; Wen η, e impac response of e condiion error square iem is asymmerical, a is ime, e effec is called e asymmeric effec. 3. DCC and biariae GARCH model From e inspecaion of e resuls from e aboe menioned ables, i is known a Ialy and Germany s sock reurn bo ae e condiionally eeroskedasiciy, lepokuric and e saionary sequence saisical caracerisic. Terefore, i is suggesed a e biariae GARCH model sould be used o analyze e relaions beween Ialy and Germany s sock marke reurns. In is paper, e DCC and biariae GARCH model proposed by Engle () and Tse and Tusi () are used o analyze e connecion beween Ialy and Germany s sock price reurns. Te resul of e normal disribuion es of Jarque-Bera sows a e sudy daa is no a normal disribuion. In addiion, e kurosis coefficiens are bigger an 3. We sould use disribuion of e eay ails and i is comparaiely suiable. Terefore, is paper uses e Suden s disribuion of eay ails, and uses e maximum likeliood algorim meod of BHHH (Bernd, e al., 974) o esimae e unknown parameers. Te biariae GARCH model may be consruced from equaion (4) o equaion (). Tis model is used as a baseline o discuss Ialy s sock price reurn olailiy and is impac on Germany s sock price reurn.

Te wie noise of a ( a,, a, ) also obeys e biariae Suden s disribuion and is funcion form is defined as aboe. Tis secion uses e DCC and e biariae asymmeric-garch model, namely uses equaion (5) o equaion (), o discuss Ialy s and Germany s sock price reurn olailiies relaedness analysis. Parameers esimaion firsly considers a general model, and bases on e esimaed resuls. Ten, e auors delee some nonsignifican explanaion ariables, and finally obain a simplificaion model for Ialy and Germany s sock price reurn olailiies relaedness analysis. From e empirical diagnosis resul, we know a Ialy and Germany s sock price reurn olailiy may be consruced on e DCC and biariae asymmeric-garch (, ) model. Is esimae resul is saed in Table 8. Based on e esimaed resuls of e DCC and e biariae asymmeric-garch (, ) model in Table 8, e auors es e esimaed alue of parameers coefficien o be significan or no wi a p-alue. Under e bad news and e good news, e obseraion condiion s consan erm coefficien does ae significan influence under e % significance leel in Ialy. If e inesors ae a long-erm iew on an inesmen sock in Ialy, ey are able o obain a cerain degree of reurn. Under e bad news, Ialy s sock price reurn receies before 3 days impac of Ialy s sock marke reurn ( φ 3.7). Under e good news, Ialy s sock price reurn olailiy does also receie before 3 days influence of Germany s sock price reurn ( φ 3 -.645). Under e bad news, e obsered mean equaion of e esimaed coefficien demonsraes a e obseraion condiion s consan erm coefficien does ae significan influence under e % significance leel in Germany. If e inesors ae a long-erm iew on an inesmen sock in Germany, ey are able o obain a cerain degree of reurn. Under e bad news and good news, Germany s sock price reurn receies before 3 days impac of Ialy ( ϕ 3.657 and ϕ 3.7, respeciely). Under e bad news, Germany s sock price reurn receies before 3 days impac of Germany s sock marke reurn ( ϕ 3 -.593). On e oer and, e correlaion coefficien aerage esimaion alue ( ρˆ.844) of Ialy and Germany s sock price reurn olailiy is significan.
