MANAGING THE REAL ESTATE MARKET BASED ON STOCK MARKET DEVELOPMENT AND MACRO FACTORS.

By utilizing quarterly data in Vietnam, this study is the first paper to examine the causal relationship between stock market developments and real estate market developments. Three variables are used as a proxy of the stock market development: size, turnover ratio, and total value ratio. Total investment and expenditure on real estate are used as an indicator of real estate development. The highlight contribution is that the paper implements separate tests on the interrelationships between the variables through the results of variance decomposition and repulsion affecting these two markets. The multivariable vector autoregression model (VAR) and the Toda-Dolado methods are applied to fully consider the response of two variables. The results show a two-way causal relationship between the stock and the real estate market that diverges significantly from those of earlier research done in developed markets. The real estate market will experience a decline in the medium term when size and the total value ratio of the stock market decline. But in the long term, the stock market's size and total value ratio will gradually have less of an impact on the real estate market. In contrast, the trend of the impact of turnover ratio on the real estate market will gradually increase in the long term. This result offers empirical support for policymakers who manage the development of the real estate market based on macro factors and the stock market. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
