Abstract: Three stock market indices (the Nikkei 225, the Standard and Poor’s 500 and the Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50) are analysed in this paper using a parametric procedure for fractional integration. We find that the orders of integration of these three series range between 0.75 and 1.25. A model selection criterion suggests that they can be specified as fractional processes of order 0.75, with AR(1) disturbances. This indicates that the three series exhibit mean reversion.
