The CNN Fear and Greed Index as a predictor of US equity index returns: Static and time-varying Granger causality
Finance Research Letters ( IF 7.4 ) Pub Date : 2024-11-22 , DOI: 10.1016/j.frl.2024.106492

We assess whether the CNN “Fear and Greed” Index can be used to predict returns on equity indices and gold. Using static tests, we find that the Fear and Greed Index Granger causes returns on the S&P 500, Nasdaq Composite and Russell 3000 indices in the first sample period (2011–2020), but not gold returns. Analysis from 2021 to 2024 indicates the Fear and Greed index Granger causes S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite returns, but the relationship is considerably weaker. Using dynamic tests from Shi et al. (2020) we that show that these results may be driven by a stronger relationship existing pre-2014.

CNN 恐惧和贪婪指数作为美国股票指数回报的预测指标:静态和时变格兰杰因果关系



我们评估 CNN“恐惧与贪婪”指数是否可用于预测股票指数和黄金的回报。使用静态测试,我们发现恐惧与贪婪指数格兰杰指数在第一个样本期(2011-2020 年)导致标准普尔 500、纳斯达克综合指数和罗素 3000 指数的回报,但黄金的回报没有。2021 年至 2024 年的分析表明,恐惧和贪婪指数格兰杰导致标准普尔 500 指数和纳斯达克综合指数的回报,但这种关系要弱得多。使用 Shi et al. (2020) 的动态测试,我们表明这些结果可能是由 2014 年之前存在的更强的关系驱动的。
