Özet

The fluctuations in oil have strong implications on many financial assets not to mention its relationship with gold prices, exchange rates, stock markets, and investor sentiment. Recent evidence suggests nonlinear contagion among the factors stated above with bivariate or trivariate settings and a throughout investigation of contagion and causality links by taking especially nonlinearity into consideration deserves special importance for the relevant literature. For this purpose, the paper explores the Markov switching generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity copula (MS-GARCH—copula) and MS-GARCH-copula-causality method and its statistical properties. The methods incorporate regime switching and causality analyses in addition to modeling nonlinearity in conditional volatility. For a sample covering daily observations for 4 January 2000–13 March 2020, the empirical findings revealed that: i. the incorporation of MS type nonlinearity to copula analysis provides important information, ii. the new method helps in the determination of regime-dependent tail dependence among oil, VIX, gold, exchange rates, and BIST stock market returns, in addition to determining the direction of causality in those regimes, iii. important policy implications are derived with the proposed methods given the distinction between high and low volatility regimes leads to different solutions on the direction of causality.
