Abstract
This paper analyzes the impact of current financial crisis on Turkish stock market movements and external linkages with selected developed countries. We employ the multivariate co-integration method and structural break analyses using daily stock market indices of Turkey, the US, England and Germany. Our empirical result indicates that Turkish stock market has significant co-integration relationship with selected developed countries’ stock markets in the crises free period. However, the Turkish stock market deviated during crises using its own financial dynamics. The current financial crisis in the US has no impact on the development of Turkish stock market. Our result has important implication that portfolio investors can capitalize on this feature of Turkish stock market in the case of financial crises in the developed countries. Key words: Turkish stock market, external linkages, financial crises, structural break, co-integration.
