Utilizing daily stock returns data from January 01, 2019, to December 31, 2023, we estimate beta coefficients and expected returns for each company, shedding light on their performance and risk characteristics. Our findings reveal that technology and finance sector stocks generally exhibit higher beta values and expected returns compared to healthcare sector stocks. Notably, NVIDIA Corporation emerges as the most volatile stock with the highest expected return of 23.095%, reflecting its position in the innovation-driven technology sector. Conversely, healthcare sector stocks demonstrate lower beta values and expected returns. Through an in-depth analysis, we underscore the importance of balancing risk and return in portfolio construction, considering investors’ risk tolerance and objectives. While acknowledging the limitations of CAPM, our study contributes to a deeper understanding of its applicability in portfolio management and asset pricing, providing valuable insights for investors and financial practitioners.","PeriodicalId":486390,"journal":{"name":"Asian journal of economics, business and accounting","volume":"12 23","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140980745","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, this study sought to investigate the impact of exchange rate volatility on productivity in Nigeria. Due to the seemingly mixed order of integration in the variables, the Johansen and Bound cointegration tests were used to establish that there are long-run relationships between the variables. Following the cointegration tests, the analysis of the study was based on the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) Model. The findings from the study revealed that exchange rate volatility negatively impacts productivity in Nigeria in the short run and in the long run. However, the financial development in Nigeria negatively impacts productivity, reflecting the underdevelopment of the financial system to transmit its function to the real sector. Other variables considered emphasise persistence in the way they impact productivity. The article also emphasised the need for the harmonisation of foreign exchange management guidelines and clarity and transparency in the management of the foreign exchange market.","PeriodicalId":486390,"journal":{"name":"Asian journal of economics, business and accounting","volume":"26 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140980484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the central question of concern is whether the Fed's interest rate hiking policy constitutes an important trigger of the financial crisis in emerging markets. In order to shed light on this complex phenomenon in a comprehensive manner, this paper not only analyses in depth the macroeconomic logic behind the Fed's interest rate hike, but also explores its transmission mechanism in emerging market economies, as well as the economic vulnerability of these countries in the face of external shocks. The results of the study show that the collapse of emerging countries as a result of the Fed's interest rate hikes seems to be inevitable, but we can draw insights from it: actively promoting the reform of the international monetary system and supporting the inclusion of more types of currencies in the international trade and investment settlement system has become a common choice, including for some Western countries, as well as the need to continue to optimise the economic structure of the domestic economy and to strengthen the ability to manage and control the comprehensive risks.","PeriodicalId":486390,"journal":{"name":"Asian journal of economics, business and accounting","volume":"66 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140985066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Annual time series secondary data for the period 1980-2020 were employed in the study. Specifically, data on fiscal deficit, public debt, government expenditure, money supply, interest rate, and real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for the study period were obtained from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN, 2020), and the World Development Indicators (WDIs, 2020). The study used descriptive statistics in form of tables, and the Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS) for long run analysis.\u0000It was established in the study that government expenditure and outstanding debt have significant positive relationship with money supply. Specifically, N1 billion increase in public debt is expected to increase money supply by N1.2 billion (t = 8.25, p < 0.01). Similarly, N1billion increase in government spending will cause money supply to increase by N1.36 billion (t = 4.29, p < 0.01). Conversely, interest rate exhibited negative effect on money supply, such that one percent increase in interest rate will bring money supply down by 150 percent (t = -2.0113, p < 0.05). With a measure of fiscal dominance with the δ of 0.28, the study concluded that there is no case of fiscal dominance in Nigeria.
