Contagious speculative bubbles in equity markets: did the recent financial crisis spread to South-East Asia?
We analyzed the linkages of news to speculative bubbles in the equity markets of six South-East Asian countries and the U.S. over the period 1995-2011. To this end, we estimated a model that renders it possible to decompose equity market indexes into fundamentals and speculative bubbles. We then extracted news to speculative bubbles and used a correlation analysis to detect contagion effects due to the recent financial crisis. Our results indicate that evidence of contagion is not very strong.

Abstract

We analyzed the linkages of news to speculative bubbles in the equity markets of six South-East Asian countries and the U.S. over the period 1995-2011. To this end, we estimated a model that renders it possible to decompose equity market indexes into fundamentals and speculative bubbles. We then extracted news to speculative bubbles and used a correlation analysis to detect contagion effects due to the recent financial crisis. Our results indicate that evidence of contagion is not very strong.
