Friendship of Stock Indices
The aim of this study is to cluster different stock indices based on historical time series data. The current research shows that tail events have minor effect on the equity index structure. It also turns out that major part of the total variance can be explained by clusters. In addition, cluster wise regressions are reliable, hence CAPM with clusters gives real information about risk and reward.
