碩士 === 淡江大學 === 財務金融學系 === 86 === Many economists believe that the overall performance of a
country''s economy is strongly related to the performance of its
stock market. Some empirical studies, however, show that this
relationship does not necessarily hold. In the sense that stock
market performance is highly unpredictable, the movement of
stock prices has sometimes been expressed as a random walk
process. Shiller (1989) and DeBond (1991) have also shown that
stock price are both unpredictable and volatile in the short
run. Other empirical studies show that overall economic
performance has an influence on the performance of stock prices.
Studies by Umstead (1977) and Fama (1981) show that a positive
correlation exists between real economic growth and stock
prices. Spiro (1990) and Cochrane (1991) find that economic
fluctuations influence stock prices and that macroeconomic
variables such as real output and the interest rate can explain
stock market movement significantly. In this study,
macroeconomic variables, which closely relation with stockprices
proven by theories and previous empirical studies are used as
the independent variables. A broad, real stock-market index is
used as the dependent variable. Four econometric models
including the Vector Autoregressive Model (VAR), the Seemingly
Unrelated Regression (SUR), the Error Correction Model (ECM),
and the Kalman Filter Model (KFM) are used to forecast Taiwan
stock prices. Four econometric models, which have same basic
functional form are used as the tool of the fundamental
analysis. Further, this studies also compares four such models
and determines which makes the most accurate out of sample and
in of sample forecast. The contribution of the empirical results
can provide a valuable suggestion for the investors and the
analyst of stock market.(1)In-of-sample prediction performance
The forecasting performance of the SUR is consistently better
than the ECM,the VAR and the KFM.(2)Out-of-sample prediction
performance The ECM perform much well than the KFM, the SUR
and the VAR.
