ANALYSIS OF THE BRAZILIAN STOCK MARKET THROUGH GRAPH CENTRALITY MEASURES

ABSTRACT

This article aims to analyze the shares that make up the Brazilian IBRX100 index, verifying which sectors had the greatest influence on the Stock Exchange in 2018, 2019, and 2020. For this purpose, the theory of graph centrality measures was used to discover the most central shares. A balance analysis of the graphs was also performed, since balanced graphs are more stable, generating a more predictable stock portfolio. This study may help investors to compose a safer stock portfolio and identify which stocks are most correlated with each other. The most central shares can aid in perceiving stock market trends.
