Abstract

We show that basic materials, financials, industrial, technologies, and telecommunication equity sectors were the primary exporters of volatility from the U.S. and that the magnitude of the spillover increased especially during and post-2008 financial crisis. Investing in low volatility spillover countries generate high Sharpe ratios for U.S. portfolio managers, especially during the financial crisis.
