Table 6 provides descriptive statistics for the dynamic conditional correlations (DCCs) between stock market and foreign exchange markets over the entire sample period, and for both the financial crisis recession and tranquil periods. Table 6 reveals that in most countries on average the range (maximum minus minimum) of DCC values is high in turmoil periods compared to tranquil periods. The GFC period is an exception. Entering turmoil periods the maximum values increase gradually, while the minimum values of the correlations show jump-like behavior. These findings are confirmed by Figure 2 that shows that DCCs during turmoil periods are more volatile than in the tranquil periods. The correlations between markets considered in this article strongly vary over time. This implies the relevance of the DCCs when evaluating the effectiveness and stability of asset diversification. For all countries we report negative values of the correlations changing substantially during turmoil periods and correlations that are less volatile in tranquil periods. This implies a reduced benefit from portfolio diversification between stock markets and foreign exchange markets in turmoil periods. Moreover, this implicitly shows that Asian markets are relatively well integrated.
