No Contagion, Only Interdependence: Measuring Stock Market Comovements

TL;DR: The authors showed that correlation coefficients are conditional on market volatility, and that there was virtually no increase in unconditional correlation coefficients (i.e., no contagion) during the 1997 Asian crisis, 1994 Mexican devaluation, and 1987 U.S. market crash.

The Endogeneity of the Optimum Currency Area Criteria
