Further, Chinese stock market is functioning independently and does not have any causal effect to Indian, Russian and Brazilian stock market. The study reports that there is long run equilibrium relationship existing among all BRIC countries stock market. The study concludes that the movements of stock market return are explained by their own shocks rather than the shocks of other BRIC countries stock market return.
