Abstract

Oil is closely related to the world economy and is one of the most important materials in the commodity market. Its price fluctuation can directly affect the supply of the oil market, thus affecting world inflation. The US stock market can more reflect the world profit level and economic indicators. They are the key components of the world economy and an interesting research area, so we conducted this research. This study analysis and compare historical data of oil price and the U.S. stock market return. The price of crude oil does not affect the stock market directly, but it does affect U.S. stocks through indirect transmission. The analysis indicates that the oil price has little influence when it is stable, but it has more influence when it is volatile. A correlation can arise because changes in the crude oil price rate affect the outlook for a firm’s corporate profits and therefore affect the U.S. stock market performance. In addition, crude oil prices affect CPI and PPI, a leading measure of inflation, which in turn affects U.S. interest rates and corresponding affecting the US stock market.
