Finansal Piyasalarda Seçili Yatırım Araçlarının Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşına Tepkisinin Olay Çalışması Yaklaşımı ile İncelenmesi
Abstract
Rusya’nın 24 Şubat 2022 tarihinde Ukrayna’ya karşı geniş kapsamlı askeri harekâtı başlatması ile küresel piyasalarda beklenmedik hareketlilikler görülmüştür. Bu çalışmada, finansal piyasalarda işlem gören seçili yatırım aracı fiyatlarının savaşın başladığı tarih etrafındaki davranışları, olay çalışması metodolojisi kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, ilgili olaya karşı yatırım araçlarının kısa ve uzun dönemli tepkisini ölçebilmek için farklı piyasaları temsilen ons altın, ham petrol, euro/dolar paritesi ve MSCI global hisse senedi endeksine ait günlük veriler çalışmanın veri seti olarak belirlenmiştir. Söz konusu metodoloji kullanılarak, aynı zamanda etkinlik hipotezi çerçevesinde finansal piyasaların etkinliği sınanmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında öncelikle her bir yatırım aracına ait anomali getirileri (AR) ve kümülatif anomali getirilerinin (CAR) anlamlılıkları test edilmiştir. Oluşturulan dört farklı olay penceresi içerisinde ons altın ve ham petrol fiyatlarının ilgili olaya pozitif yönde tepki verdiği görülürken, euro/dolar paritesi ve MSCI global hisse senedi endeksi fiyatlarında negatif yönde bir hareketlilik gözlemlenmiştir. Özellikle, ons altın belirlenmiş tüm olay pencereleri içerisinde olaya çok güçlü tepki vererek diğer yatırım araçlarından ayrışmıştır. Elde edilen bu bulgu, kriz dönemlerinde altının, yatırımcılar tarafından güvenli bir liman olarak görüldüğünü destekler niteliktedir. Olay çalışması metodolojisinin uygulanmasıyla anlamlı anomali getirilerinin elde edilmesi, söz konusu yatırım araçlarının işlem gördüğü finansal piyasaların yarı güçlü formda etkin olmadığı sonucunu ortaya çıkarmıştır.

Investigatıon of the Reaction of Selected Investment Instruments in Financial Markets to the Russia-Ukraine War with an Event Study Approach
Abstract
Unexpected movements were seen in the global financial markets by Russia's launch of a massive military assault against Ukraine on February 24, 2022. In this study, we make an effort to use the event study methodology to investigate the behavior of the prices of selected financial instruments around the event date. We selected daily data of ounce gold, crude oil, EUR/USD, and MSCI global stock index representing various markets as the data set of the study for this purpose in order to be able to see the short and long-term response of investment instruments to the pertinent event. We want to evaluate the efficiency of financial markets using the methods mentioned above. We first tested the significance of the abnormal returns (AR) and cumulative abnormal returns (CAR) of each investment instrument within the study’s parameters. We provide evidence that the described event has a negative impact on EUR/USD and global stock index prices during each of the four potential event windows while having a positive effect on ounce gold and crude oil prices. In particular, ounce gold stands out from other financial instruments by responding to the event strongly within all event windows. This finding supports that investors mainly tend to prefer gold as a safe haven in times of crisis. The event study approach shows that the financial markets are not efficient in semi-strong form when significant abnormal returns are obtained.
