Popis: Our main concern is to investigate effectively and more realistically the linkage as well as a contagion effect among the stock markets of Thailand, United States of America, and Japan. To obtain the regime dependent correlation and co-skewness, we construct the Markov Switching model based on skew-normal and skewed student-t distributions as the extension of conventional Markov Switching model. The result shows that this model outperforms the conventional Markov Switching model in terms of the lowest AIC and BIC. Furthermore, we can confirm the existence of the contagion effect and co-skewness among the three stock markets with the nonlinearity and contagion LR-tests.
