Economic uncertainties closely affect society’s consumption and investment behaviour. Rising stock markets increase investors’ confidence, resulting in more purchases and higher stock prices and, in this context, an increase in consumer spending. When stock prices decrease, company investments are also negatively affected as consumer spending declines. Thus, increases and decreases in stock prices affect the general economy as they affect business confidence and consumers. The study analyses the effect of uncertainty in economic policies on stock markets, leading to a decrease in investor confidence in the economy. Such effects in G7 countries were examined using the nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model for the period 1998:M05–2020:M09. This method was able to capture symmetries and asymmetries in the relationship between economic policy uncertainties and the stock markets. The results showed that heightened uncertainty in economic policy in Japan has a significantly negative effect on the stock market index, but in Germany and Italy, it has a significantly positive effect. Rising interest rates have negatively affected the stock market index in the United States, Canada, Japan, Italy, and the United Kingdom. The increase in the industrial production index is positively related to the stock market index in the United States, Canada, Japan, Italy, and France. Additionally, uncertainties in economic policy have asymmetric impacts on the stock market index in the United States, Canada, Japan and Italy, and symmetrical impacts in Germany, France and the United Kingdom.</p></abstract><abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Неопределенность — один из факторов, влияющих на приятие решений. Экономическая неопределенность оказывает непосредственное влияние на потребление и инвестиционное поведение населения. Рост фондовых рынков ведет к укреплению доверия инвесторов, что способствует увеличению количества покупок, повышению цен на акции и увеличению потребительских расходов. Падение цен на акции также отрицательно влияет на инвестиции компаний, приводя к снижению потребительских расходов. Таким образом, изменение цен на акции влияет как на доверие бизнеса и потребителей, так и на экономику в целом. В статье исследуется влияние неопределенности экономической политики на фондовые рынки, приводящее к снижению доверия инвесторов к экономике. Нелинейная модель авторегрессии и распределенного лага была использована для анализа этих взаимоотношений в странах Большой семерки за период с мая 1998 г. по сентябрь 2020 г. Примененный метод позволил выявить симметрию и асимметрию взаимоотношений между неопределенностью экономической политики и фондовыми рынками. Результаты показали, что повышенная неопределенность экономической политики оказывает существенное негативное влияние на индекс фондового рынка в Японии, а в Германии и Италии — существенное положительное. Рост процентных ставок негативно повлиял на индексы фондового рынка в США, Канаде, Японии, Италии и Великобритании. Рост индекса промышленного производства имеет прямую зависимость от индекса фондового рынка США, Канады, Японии, Италии и Франции. Кроме того, неопределенность в экономической политике оказывает асимметричное воздействие на индекс фондового рынка в США, Канаде, Японии и Италии и симметричное воздействие в Германии, Франции и Великобритании.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>7 developed economies (G7), investor, interest rates, industrial production indices, stock exchange, economic policy uncertainty, nonlinear ARDL</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Большая семерка (G7), инвестор, процентные ставки, индексы промышленного производства, фондовая биржа, неопределенность экономической политики, нелинейная модель авторегрессии и распределенного лага</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="en-ref1"><label>1</label><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Alqahtani, A., &amp; Martinez, M.
