The interdependency structure in the Mexican stock exchange: A network approach

Abstract

Our goal in this paper is to study and characterize the interdependency structure of the Mexican Stock Exchange (mainly stocks from BMV) in the period 2000-2019 and provide visualizations which in a one shot provide a big-picture panorama. To this end, we estimate correlation/concentration matrices from different models and then compute metrics from network theory including eigencentralities and network modularity
