Abstract

This paper employs the wavelet-based quantile method to examine the time and frequency effect of investor sentiment, economic policy uncertainty, and crude oil on emerging and developed stock markets over the monthly sample range from September 2005 to December 2020. We first explore the relationship between various markets, and our empirical results reveal a strong long-term spillover effect of sentiment on returns from developed to emerging markets. Meanwhile, we find the negative influence of EPU gradually strengthens from the short-term towards the long-term. Further, oil shocks to stock returns are highly related to investment horizons and market circumstances. Specifically, the correlation is negative in the medium-term while positive in the short- and long-term, and more evident when stock markets are in a bearish or bullish state. In short, investors should take the structure dependence in terms of time and frequency when participating in financial markets.
