Energy Shocks, Stock Market and the Macroeconomy

Dear Colleagues,

Since the oil crisis of the 1970s, the relationships between economic output, prices, financial markets, and energy markets, has been of interest not only to economists but also to politicians and business leaders. In the 21st century alone, energy shocks have occurred due to net-zero emission activities, geopolitical tensions, rapid economic growth in emerging countries, shale oil and gas development, renewable energy development, and pandemics. They have affected the entire macroeconomy. Therefore, a proper understanding of these relationships should be helpful in policymaking, investment decisions, and management strategy formulation.

This Special Issue on "Energy Shocks, Financial Markets and the Macroeconomy" in Economies invites a variety of researchers not limited in macroeconomics, energy economics, financial economics, and econometrics to submit both their theoretical and empirical works focused on the relationships between energy shocks, financial markets, and the macroeconomy. This Special Issue will be an excellent literature source for academics, politicians, bureaucrats, managers, and investors.
