Abstract

There is a growing literature on how macro-economic variables can have effects on equity return in both developed and emerging stock markets. The objective of this study is to empirically test the performance of the Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT) in the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) for the period of 2000 up to 2004 on monthly base. In this paper, 3 macroeconomic variables (inflation, exchange rate and market capitalization) are investigated against 20 sectors of the Nigerian Stock Exchange to observe the effects of inflation exchange rate were carried out by Chen Roll & Ross (1986); Gangem, Brooks & Fatt (2000); Tursoy Gunsel Rjoub (2008); and Nikolaos, Grigoris, Nikolaos & Nikos (2009). This study in addition, includes Market capitalization variable. Using Ordinary Least Square (OLS) we observed there are no significant effects of those variables on the stocks’ return in Nigeria. The results are broadly consistent with similar studies carried for most developed and emerging economies.
