- Abstract
The German DAX index is an important indicator not only for following German stock market but also for the health of German economy. The movement of the DAX index is thus the objective of many studies, to which the random walk model does not contribute a lot although this approach has been advocated for years. In the past, the random walk model was mainly done in terms of statistical tests rather than to simulate the real stock data. In this study, we applied the data generated by random walk model to fit the closing price of the DAX index for the first 20 years in this century, which were furthermore divided into five sub-periods. The results show that the simulation generated by random walk works for short sub-periods but has difficulty to mimic the DAX index for a longer period.
