Abstract

COVID-19 developed into an extremely serious pandemic by the middle of 2020. It has caused enormous negative impacts such as a crush to the global market. In this study, we tested the correlation between COVID-19 and stock market in a more intuitive way with the COVID-19 transmission rate and recovery rate. They were generated by using Unscented Kalman Filter method incorporated with SEIR model. Since the Unscented Kalman Filter method analyzes data at daily intervals, we can study the trend of COVID-19 development and the fund index rate change in detail.
