Abstract

The paper presents a statistical analysis of the volatility and market returns of the Russian stock market from 2015 to 2020 in the context of the influence of internal and external factors and inter-market interaction. The effects of the coronavirus pandemic on stock markets and the global crude oil market are considered. The periods of risk exposure and falling market returns of the Russian stock market are indicated. The author concludes that in general for most of the annual segments, investors had a positive attitude to the Russian stock market, as evidenced by the insignificant level of volatility and positive market returns.
