Abstract

This article validates the chaotic behavior in the Argentinean, Brazilian, Canadian, Chilean, American, Peruvian and Mexican Stock Markets using the Merval, Bovespa, S&P TSX Composite, IPSA, IGPA, S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrials, Nasdaq, IGBVL and IPC Stock Indexes respectively. The results of different techniques and methods like: Graphic Analysis, Recurrence Analysis, Temporal Space Entropy, Hurst Coefficient, Lyapunov Exponential and Correlation Dimension support the hypothesis that the stock markets behave in a chaotic way and rejected the hypothesis of randomness. Our conclusion validates the use of prediction techniques in those stock markets. It’s remarkable the result of the Hurst Coefficient Technique, that in average was of 0.75 for the indexes of this study which would justify the use of Arfima models among others for the prediction of such series.// Este artículo valida el comportamiento caótico en las Bolsas de Valores de Argentina, Brasil, Canadá, Chile, Estados Unidos, Perú y México utilizando los índices accionarios Merval, Bovespa, S&P TSX Composite, IPSA, IGPA, S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrials, Nasdaq, IGBVL e IPC, respectivamente. Los resultados de distintas técnicas y métodos como análisis gráfico, análisis de recurrencia, entropía de espacio temporal, coeficiente de Hurst, exponente de Lyapunov y dimensión de correlación, apoyan la hipótesis de que los mercados bursátiles americanos se comportan de forma caótica, en contra de la hipótesis de mercados eficientes y la hipótesis de aleatoriedad. Esta conclusión valida el uso de instrumentos predictivos de rendimientos accionarios en los mercados de renta variable americanos. Destacable es el resultado de la técnica coeficiente de Hurst, que en promedio fue de 0.75 para los índices en estudio, lo que estaría justificando la utilización de modelos tipo Arfima, entre otros, para la predicción de dichas series.
