This thesis uses the consumer confidence index (CCI) and the headline stock indices of 11 European countries to study the relationship between the CCI and the stock market. The co-movement between the CCI and the stock market are examined by using a VAR model, testing for Granger causality and estimating the dependence structure by using copula models. I find that, the stock market has a significant influence on the consumer confidence. Although there is a slight change in correlation through time and in different stages of the economy, this influence does not significantly change.
