摘要

The de-trended cross-correlation analysis (DCCA) is converted to a new form, which turns out to be a periodic function modulated power-law, to evaluate discrete-scale long-range cross-correlation between time series. If the modulator is dominated with one frequency, the derived form will degenerate to a log-periodic power-law. We investigate a total of five important stock markets distributing in different continents. Calculations show that the cross-correlations between different stock markets may hint at log-periodic oscillations. This finding may be helpful for us to evaluate financial state in a global way.
