Abstract
Este trabajo intenta arrojar luz sobre las analogías históricas de la crisis actual. Para ello se compara la distribución de los rendimientos del Índice Dow Jones Industrial Average durante un período de 769 días (del 15 de septiembre de 2008, la quiebra de Lehman Brothers, hasta septiembre de 2011), con todas las distribuciones históricas posibles de rendimientos calculados con una ventana móvil de 769 días desde e 2 de enero de 1900 al 12 de septiembre de 2008. Mediante el uso de un contraste no paramétrico Kolmogorov-Smirnov y de un contraste de Chi cuadrado, ambos de homogeneidad en la distribución, encontramos que la distribución de rendimientos durante la crisis actual sería similar a varios períodos anteriores de grave crisis financiera que evolucionaron hacia intensas recesiones, siendo el episodio que abarca del 28 de mayo de 1935 al 17 de junio de 1938 el más análogo a la situación actual. Además, al aplicar el procedimiento propuesto por Diebold, Gunther y Tay (1998) para comparar las densidades de sub-muestras, se obtiene un apoyo adicional para nuestros hallazgos y se detecta un subperíodo entre el 10 de septiembre de 1930 y el 13 de octubre de 1933, donde la gravedad de la crisis supera la situación actual, presentando eventos más pronunciados en las colas. Finalmente, al comparar el riesgo de mercado histórico con el riesgo actual, se observa que el riesgo de mercado actual sólo ha sido superado por el experimentado al comienzo de la Gran Depresión.
