Coherence wavelet method and wavelet-granger causality tests to measure COVID-19 pandemic-induced uncertainties / Siti Norsafura Md Sobri

Due to COVID-19 outbreak, the economic policy became uncertain. The fall of oil price has caused the stock market to respond. It has been a question on whether economic uncertainty and oil prices were affected by COVID-19, or is it the fall of oil price that contributed to the economic instability a...

The fall of oil price has caused the stock market to respond. It has been a question on whether economic uncertainty and oil prices were affected by COVID-19, or is it the fall of oil price that contributed to the economic instability and stock market volatility. In this study, the researcher analysed the connectivity between the recent spread of COVID-19 in Malaysia, Malaysia stock market, oil prices in Malaysia and Global Economic Policy Uncertainty (GEPU) in time-frequency domain. The coherence wavelet method was used to analyse the movement of each variable and to evaluate the interactions between the selected variables for 25th January until 25th May 2020. The researcher also applied the Wavelet-based Granger Causality to test the robustness of the coherence wavelet. This study disclosed the impact of COVID-19 reported cases towards the oil price slumps. Stock market volatility was affected by the GEPU index while oil prices were influenced by stock market and GEPU index. To obtain more precise results, it is recommended that future researchers use Economic Policy Uncertainty of Malaysia instead of GEPU and add more sample data. 2021-08-02 Thesis NonPeerReviewed text en https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/49276/1/49276.pdf ID49276 Md Sobri, Siti Norsafura (2021) Coherence wavelet method and wavelet-granger causality tests to measure COVID-19 pandemic-induced uncertainties / Siti Norsafura Md Sobri.

description Due to COVID-19 outbreak, the economic policy became uncertain. The fall of oil price has caused the stock market to respond. It has been a question on whether economic uncertainty and oil prices were affected by COVID-19, or is it the fall of oil price that contributed to the economic instability and stock market volatility. In this study, the researcher analysed the connectivity between the recent spread of COVID-19 in Malaysia, Malaysia stock market, oil prices in Malaysia and Global Economic Policy Uncertainty (GEPU) in time-frequency domain. The coherence wavelet method was used to analyse the movement of each variable and to evaluate the interactions between the selected variables for 25th January until 25th May 2020.

This study disclosed the impact of COVID-19 reported cases towards the oil price slumps. Stock market volatility was affected by the GEPU index while oil prices were influenced by stock market and GEPU index.
