Abstract

Financial markets are considered one of the most vital components of any economy that provides immediate access to public capital and makes it available to commercial entities. The policymakers, who are responsible for planning economic development, are required to have sufficient control over this market behavior. The present research aimed at investigating and recognizing the common and idiosyncratic latent factors affecting the capital markets (dollars, coins, housing, and stock market) in Iran in the interval of 2011:03 to 2021:02. The results revealed that the latent common factor has the least impact on the stock market. The latent common factor affects the housing market with a coefficient of 0.73, and the coefficient of this variable was respectively 0.97 and 0.90 for the coin and dollar market, and the greatest effect of the latent common variable on the financial markets is observable in these two markets. On the other hand, the idiosyncratic latent variable has a greater impact on the stock market, but the greatest influence on dollars and coins has been imposed by the latent common factor, namely monetary policies. This result is in line with the results of studies accomplished in recent years in the country.
