Economic blocs were created with co-prosperity in mind. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations was formed with this exact purpose. But it is unknown as to what extent does this economic interdependence enable one member to affect another. This paper is going to consider the traditional relationship indicators to a country's economic growth. However, this will be modified slightly. The indicators will be from Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand, but it will all affect a dependent variable from the Philippines. And it is much more financial in nature. It is the Philippine Stock Exchange index. This will be done through a panel data regresion, enabling the paper to figure out if the indicators will still be relevant cross country.
