This publication is an open access article. businessperspectives.org Investment Management and Financial Innovations, Volume 9, Issue 4, 2012 Guneratne B. Wickremasinghe (Australia) Stock prices and exchange rates in Sri Lanka: some empirical evidence Abstract This paper examines the relationship between stock prices and exchange rates in Sri Lanka. The author uses monthly data on four foreign exchange rates and the All Share Price Index (ASPI) of the Colombo Stock Exchange in the em- pirical analysis. The Johansen’s cointegration test finds no long-run relationships between stock prices (ASPI) and any of the four exchange rates during the sample period. Therefore, the paper proceeded to test for short-run in-sample causal relationships between stock prices and exchange rates and found one unidirectional relationship from stock prices to the US dollar exchange rate. In addition, the author performed a variance decomposition analysis to get in- sights into the out-of-sample causal relationships between exchange rates and stock prices. The results indicate that most of the variance of the ASPI, particularly, at longer horizons is explained by the Indian rupee with the other cur- rencies explaining a very little variation of the ASPI.

    International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2017 883 ISSN 2250-3153 The Long-Run Relationship between Stock Market and Macroeconomic Behavior in Postwar Economy of Sri Lanka DHD Nadeesha * Institute of Human Resource Advancement, University of Colombo Abstract- The study investigates the dynamic relations between macroeconomics behaviour and all share price index (ASPI) performance in post war economy of Sri Lanka for the period 2009-2016, using monthly series of the corresponding variables. The study considers Average Weighted Prime Lending Rate (AWPR) and Average Weighted Deposit Rate (AWDR), money supply as measure for country’s interest rates which supervise the behaviour of money market, Colombo Consumer price index as measure of inflation and exchange rates as the measure of external sector in economy of Sri Lanka. The objective was achieved by identifying the influence of macroeconomic variables on ASPI by using the statistical techniques of unit root test in order to fulfill the objective of stationary for all the macroeconomic variables and ASPI. The Johansen co-integration test was used to investigate whether the variables are co-integrated of the same order taking into account the trace statistics and the maximum Eigen-value tests. The variables were found to be co-integrated with at least one co-integrating vector. Finally, Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) was developed to forecast the long term behaviour. The results reveal that the change in average prime Deposit rate(AWDR), inflation rate (INF), exchange rate of Britain Pounds (GBP) and Japanese Yen (JPY), Special Drawing Right (SDR) affect All Share Price Index(ASPI) while money supply and average prime lending rate (AWPR) does not influence on ASPI.

Lower food inflation is the main catalyst driving the overall inflation lower. However, core inflation remained relatively high at 5.8% as at June 2019 (6.2% in May 2019).

It also depreciated against the Euro, Japanese Yen and DIPS MARGINALLY the Indian Rupee by 1.44%, 3.09% and 0.39% respectively during the period, while it appreciated by 2.90% against the Sterling Pound.
