List of US Stock Betas for Large-Cap Stocks

We update the report below at the end of each week. Links on individual stocks take you to detail on each. Sign up to receive Update Notifications.

We provide two stock beta estimates for nearly 100 US large-cap stocks. The first is a long-term average over 250 weeks. The second and more novel beta estimate is a time-varying beta which reflects recent market conditions and stock price behavior.

Changes over time in the characteristics of a company which affect the way the its stock price covaries with the overall market become reflected in the time-varying beta estimates. As a result, long-term and time-varying betas can differ.
