Therefore great variety of statistical and econometric methods is used, parametric and nonparametric tests among others.

The aim of the research is the application of selected parametric and nonparametric tests to state about the financial market situation and comparison the obtained results. The research concerns the basic stock exchanges’ indexes from different continents in the years 2005-2012.
