Abstract

We analyze the impact of shocks from the international oil price on the Mexican Stock Exchange’s returns in the presence of conditional jumps attributable to extraordinary events. We find a positive and significant effect from the shocks in the international oil price, a result that is consistent with that of an oil-exporting economy. This can be attributed to higher oil prices representing a greater spillover of resources for some sectors related to companies listed on the stock market. This impact is greater than the associated costs that such increases could represent.
