Abstract
⺠The pdf of the volatility of 17 world markets were analyzed. ⺠Power laws and exponential function were used to fit the pdf volatilities. ⺠The exponential function showed a more adequate fit for all market indexes. ⺠With this exponential fit, we can define a temperature related to market volatility. ⺠The ratio of temperature and volatility is constant, similar to an ideal gas model.
