Abstract: | The co-movements of the U.S., Argentine, Brazilian, Chilean and Mexican equity markets are studied during the Oct 12, 1998 - Mar 24, 2000 bull market and the Mar 24, 2000 - Sep 10, 2001 bear market. It is found that these five markets are more closely correlated and, therefore, there is less diversification benefit to global investors during the bear market than during the bull market. |
