- Abstract
This research centers on the effect of the Federal Reserve’s interest rate cuts on China’s stock market. Employing monthly data spanning from September 2016 to September 2022, it chooses variables such as the Shanghai Stock Exchange index, exchange rate, export volume, consumer price index, lending rate, and money supply. After conducting the Augmented Dickey-Fuller test and first-order differencing to ensure data stationarity, the optimal lag order for the VAR model is determined to be 1. The Granger causality test shows unidirectional causality among certain variables. Impulse response analysis indicates that short-term fluctuations of each variable notably influence the SSE index. It’s found that the Fed’s rate cuts have a short-term positive effect on China’s stock market, but the underlying mechanisms demand further exploration. Moreover, the VAR model has limitations, and both the data and methodology need refinement to enhance the accuracy and comprehensiveness of the analysis.
