Abstract

This study measures the relationships between macroeconomic variables and stock returns for BRICS countries. The study uses monthly data of select macroeconomic variables collected from February 1997 to December 2019. In addition to the traditional macroeconomic variables, the study used the new age macroeconomic variables like- economic policy uncertainty index, Crude oil volatility index, Global financial stress index, and SENTIX global index. Using Panel VAR and Granger causality, the study finds that market returns positively influence exchange rates. In contrast, the market tends to react negatively to changes in consumer price inflation and foreign portfolio investment. However, the equity market is susceptible to the economic growth (IIP) of BRICS economies. These macroeconomic indicators exhibit significant influence on the stock markets.
