Abstract:
This paper investigates the return and volatility spillovers between EUR/RON, EUR/HUF and EUR/PLN exchange rates and S&P500 index, but also the spillover effect between the capital markets of these three countries and this index, using the methodologies of (Diebold & Yılmaz, 2012). The paper provides both a brief description of several scientific researches conducted by numerous authors in the field of literature, and a series of empirical and econometric results that upport theoretical demonstrations. The main results highlight that the spread of volatilities (spillover) intensifies during periods of economic crisis, and the main transmitter of spillover on the foreign exchange market, both in terms of returns and volatilities, is the stock market index S&P500. This paper contributes to the field of spillover studies by analyzing the connection between Romanian currency and the geographic countries neighbors.

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to illustrate the connection between the energy sector and the capital market, specifically how changes in energy prices, such as oil and gas, influence the returns of stocks in different economic sectors. The analysis was carried out at the level of five countries from Central and Eastern Europe that are included in the same peer group from an economic development perspective. Even though the economic model of these countries is similar, the results of the analysis show that the impact of energy prices on the capital market differs significantly from one state to another. Another important aspect observed in the results is that the impact of energy prices tends to have a different magnitude on the stock prices of companies from different industries. Thus, the analysis determined the industries for which financial assets are very sensitive to energy prices, compared to the industries for which other determining factors influence capital market movements. From a quantitative perspective, the paper studies, on the one hand, the co-movement between variables, and, on the other, the impact of several types of shocks in a VAR framework. Moreover, we focused the analysis on the dynamic links between energy and stock markets; in this sense, models such as Dynamic Conditional Correlation (GARCH) and Time-Varying Parameter (VAR) were applied.
