Popis: | This paper examines the effects of economic policy uncertainty shocks on stock–bond correlations for the US market. We devise a general framework which distinguishes a positive shock from a negative one and nests either as its special case. The results show that innovations in the policy uncertainty index impact negatively and asymmetrically on the subsequent stock–bond correlations which are characterized by a structural break and positive-type asymmetry. |
