Abstract

Through an empirical analysis of the impact of fluctuations in the international prices of crude oil, natural gas ‎and wheat on the US stock market performance, the study seeks to show evidence of the investor social ‎network sentiment effects post the Ukraine war declaration on February 24, 2022. A ‎comparative approach was used for Ukraine's pre- vs post-war declaration period. The ‎considered models are of the GARCH-X type. Founding show that only post-war declaration; ‎investor sentiment as well as the economic factors such as the prices of raw materials ‎‎(including crude oil and natural gas) and food (wheat) have caused the volatility of the S&P ‎‎500 index return, while market volatility (VIX) affect negatively the stock market return pre- ‎and post-war declaration.‎
