Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris
This paper examines the relationship between the stock price and nominal exchange rate in Malaysia to ascertain the significance of using rubber price as a correction mechanism. The Johansen cointegration test was employed to investigate the effects of linear combination and the relationships among the components in a multiple time series. A two-regime, intercept-adjusted Markov switching vector error correction model was also used to examine the parameters concerned. Rubber price is used as a correction mechanism. Because rubber is one of Malaysia?s main exports, using rubber price as a correction mechanism may affect the country?s economy. The results of this study show that the said variables have cointegrating relations. Further, the nominal exchange rate has a negative relationship with the changes in stock price. Markov switching vector error correction model was found to be suitable for examining the data as the findings had a small variance. ? 2021 by De La Salle University.
