The GARCH-MIDAS model decomposes the conditional variance of (daily) stock returns into a short- and long-term component, where the latter may depend on an exogenous covariate sampled at a lower frequency. +An R package for estimating GARCH-MIDAS (MIxed-DAta-Sampling) models (Engle, Ghysels and Sohn, 2013, [doi:10.1162/REST_a_00300](https://doi.org/10.1162/REST_a_00300)) and related statistical inference, accompanying the paper "Two are better than one: Volatility forecasting using multiplicative component GARCH models" by Conrad and Kleen (2020, [doi:10.1002/jae.2742](https://doi.org/10.1002/jae.2742)).
