Abstract

Los mercados accionarios de los países emergentes pueden caracterizarse como más volátiles e inestables que los de los países industrializados pero, en cambio, prometen al inversionista retornos más elevados. Adicionalmente, el comportamiento de sus rendimientos ha demostrado tener una mayor sensibilidad ante acontecimientos internacionales y de carácter global. Por lo tanto, con alguna frecuencia se observan reacciones desproporcionadas en el comportamiento de las bolsas de los países emergentes en el corto plazo como resultado de influencias del extranjero. En este estudio se ofrece un análisis sobre las interrelaciones y causalidad entre los principales mercados accionarios de América Latina: México, Brasil, Argentina y Chile, en el periodo de agosto de 2003 a julio de 2013. Para ello, se utilizan diversas técnicas econométricas: Vectores Autorregresivos (VAR), Pruebas de Causalidad de Granger, Descomposición de Varianza y la representación gráfica del modelo del Estimulo Respuesta. / The stock markets of emerging countries are characterized as more volatile and unstable than those of industrialized countries but, in exchange, they promise higher returns to the investor. Additionally, the behavior of their returns has shown greater sensibility to international and global events. Because of that, with some frequency, there are disproportionate reactions in the behavior of emerging stock markets in response to foreign influences. In this study we present an analysis of the interrelations and causality among the main stock exchanges in Latin America: Mexico, Brazil, Argentine and Chile. To that end, we use Vector Autoregressive (VAR), Granger Causality, Variance Decomposition and the graphical representation of the Impulse-Response model.
