توجه سرمایه گذاران به مقوله های بازار و نوسانات بازار: مورد بازارهای نوظهور

This paper examines the impact of investor attention on stock market and FX market volatility in emerging economies using newly constructed innovative attention proxies that capture the full spectrum of the dynamics of the information processing stages. Our results show that the new practical proxies are better at capturing the complex nature of investor attention to market categories. We find that investor attention explains stock market volatility and shocks to attention but not FX market volatility in emerging markets. Thus, the emerging stock market, an important segment of the global equity market, is particularly sensitive to changes to investor attention.
