  1. This table presents results from three cointegration tests, namely Kao (1999), Maddala and Wu (1999), and Pedroni (1999, 2004). The Pedroni and Kao are single-equation tests while the Maddala and Wu cointegration test uses a system of equations. They all test the null of no cointegration. To examine the stationarity of the residuals, Kao uses the standard ADF test while Pedroni uses a variety of tests, including the ADF test. For the Maddala and Wu test, we report the trace test to indicate the number of cointegration relations among variables of a system. Relationships in five models (1–5) (in column 1) were tested region-wise, after incorporating portfolios developed under the regionally biased strategy. The long-term relationship depicted in Eq. (1): \({P}_{it}={\delta }_{1i}+ {\theta }_{1i}{P}_{jt}+{\mu }_{it}\);in Eq. (2): \({P}_{it}={\delta }_{1i}+ {\theta }_{1i}{P}_{jt}+ {\theta }_{2i}{S\&P500}_{it}+{\mu }_{it}\) in Eq. (3) as \({P}_{it}={\delta }_{1i}+ {\theta }_{1i}{\Delta P}_{j,r-i,t }+ {\theta }_{2i}{S\&P500}_{it}+{\theta }_{3i}{Brent}_{it}+{\mu }_{it}\); in Eq. (4): \({P}_{it}={\delta }_{1i}+ {\theta }_{1i}{\Delta P}_{j,r-i,t }+ {\theta }_{2i}{S\&P500}_{it}{+ \theta }_{3i}{sentiments}_{it}+{\mu }_{it};\) and finally in Eq. (5): \({P}_{it}={\delta }_{1i}+ {\theta }_{1i}{\Delta P}_{j,r-i,t }+ {\theta }_{2i}GFC*{S\&P500}_{it}+{\theta }_{3i}NGFC*{S\&P500}_{it}{+\mu }_{it}\). Here, \({P}_{it}\) is each of the six Latin American nations; \({\Delta P}_{j,r-i,t}\) is the yellow portfolio of MSCI of other corresponding correlated emerging and frontier countries of the Asian, Latin American, MENA and CEE markets; the yellow colour portfolio highlight portfolio of each region with i) stock having correlation less than zero; \({S\&P500}_{it}\) is the price index to the US market, \({Brent}_{it}\) is international Brent oil price series and \({sentiments}_{it}\) is the global sentiment index represented by Baker and Wurgler (2006) sentiment index. *, **, *** denotes significance at 10, 5, and 1 percent or better respectively
