Our findings reveal that most of the energy markets, except gasoil and natural gas, are net transmitters of information, whereas all the stock markets, excluding Indonesia and Korea, are net recipients.Practical implicationsThe findings are helpful for portfolio managers and institutional investors allocating funds to various asset classes in times of crisis.Originality/valueAll data is original. |
