This paper investigates the implications of time‐varying betas in factor models for stock returns. It is shown that a single‐factor model (SFMT) with autoregressive betas and homoscedastic errors (SFMT‐AR) is capable of reproducing the most important stylized facts of stock returns. An empirical study on the major US stock market sectors shows that SFMT‐AR outperforms, in terms of in‐sample and out‐of‐sample performance, SFMT with constant betas and conditionally heteroscedastic (GARCH) errors, as well as two multivariate GARCH‐type models.
