This research examines the relationship between monetary policy variables and their influence on the Nigerian stock exchange market from 1985 to 2023. Utilizing data from the World Bank and the Central Bank of Nigeria's statistical bulletin, the study employs the Johansen Cointegration test and the Vector Error Correction Model to analyze long-term relationships and short-term dynamics. The findings reveal an inverse relationship between certain monetary policy variables and the stock market, alongside evidence of positive impacts from others. These results underscore the complex interplay between monetary policy and market performance. The paper concludes by recommending further investigation into additional monetary variables that may influence the Nigerian stock exchange market.
