Notes: The table reports estimates from predictive regressions of Korean stock market returns on term spread and its components with dummy variables of Korean EPU. All variable definitions are identical to those in Table 3, except for DK_E. DK_E is the dummy variable for high uncertainty periods. Horizon indicates predictive months of future stock market returns. Panels A and B report the results of term spread and its components, respectively. Newey and West (1987) corrected t-statistics are reported in parentheses. *, ** and *** represent significance at the 10, 5 and 1% levels, respectively
