We propose a novel multiplicative factor multi‐frequency GARCH (MF2‐GARCH) model, which exploits the empirical fact that the daily standardized forecast errors of one‐component GARCH models are predictable by a moving average of past standardized forecast errors. In contrast to other...

We examine the properties and forecast performance of multiplicative volatility specifications that belong to the class of generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity–mixed-data sampling (GARCH-MIDAS) models suggested in Engle, Ghysels, and Sohn (Review of Economics and...
