The impact of macroeconomic measures on the valuation of listed equity in the US. Insights from high inflation periods
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2025) Novak, Dominik
While the relationship between stock prices and macroeconomic indicators in the US has been widely examined, conflicting findings in the empirical literature suggest the presence of nonlinear dynamics that remain insufficiently explored. Following the work of A. López-Villavicencio and V. Mignon (2011), and A. Brick and D. Nautz (2008), inflation rates above a threshold level of 3% to 5% are associated with significant adverse effects on economic stability and stock market volatility. Therefore, there is a notable gap in the literature regarding the interactions between macroeconomic measures and stock prices during periods of elevated inflation, focusing on potential threshold effects. This study examines these relationships using monthly data from August 1973 to August 1982, representing High-Inflation Period 1, and from January 2021 to June 2024, representing High-Inflation Period 2. The analysis compares the direction and magnitude of the relationships across both periods. The results confirm that hedging against price level increases is a stronger determinant than withdrawal from capital markets due to heightened uncertainty caused by rising inflation rates, which would otherwise lead to declining stock prices. Additionally, the results highlight a strategic shift in US monetary policy, leading to better-anchored inflation expectations. The analysis also indicates that industrial production has become a less reliable proxy for economic activity in recent years, reflecting the US economy’s transition towards a service-oriented structure. Overall, the observed cointegration between stock prices and macroeconomic variables challenges the assumptions of the Efficient Market Hypothesis.

The relationship between the inflation rate and the unemployment rate in Poland and their long-term associations with selected macroeconomic variables
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2023) Koterwa, Jan; Kycia, Hubert; Czapkiewicz, Anna
The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between the inflation and unemployment rates in Poland and to analyze their long-term relationships with selected macroeconomic variables: the WIG20 index, consisting of the 20 largest Polish companies noted on Warsaw Stock Exchange, the USD/PLN exchange rate, the Brent crude oil index, and the interest rate on 10- year government bond yields. The main objective of the study is to determine the relationship between inflation and unemployment. In this study, a vector error correction model (VECM) was used to study long-run dependence. The impulse response function and forecast error variance decomposition were also used to examine the interactions between variables. There is one long-run relationship between the factors studied. Both the values of the VECM model parameters and the results of the impulse response function indicate that there is a negative relationship between inflation and unemployment in the short term. In the long term, there is a positive relationship, resulting in the stagflation phenomenon.
