Dear all

I am doing my dissertation on the effect of interest rate and inflation in Dow Jones and FTSE 100.

I am thinking to do in other way around ie effect of US interest & inflation rate on FTSE100 and effect of UK interest & inflation rate on Dow Jones Industrial average

Now my problem is I am little bit confuse with the statistic tools. Simple correlation analysis will show the relationship between these macroeconomic factors with closing stock indices

My concern is how I can do multiple regression analysis using these data. My data will be from 1999 jan to 2009 dec on monthly basis.

Hence anyone with knowledge on above topic and statistic analysis (multiple regression analysis) please share your view and suggestion.

Thanks in advance.
