N2 - In this paper, we introduce a novel representation of the conditional CAPM that allows us to express both the beta and the market premium as functions of option prices. To test our model, we conduct cross-sectional regressions that include the implied beta and other stock characteristics as regressors. We contribute to the existing literature by 1) systematically selecting stock characteristics with a combination of ℓ1- and ℓ2-regularization, known as the multi-task Lasso, and 2) addressing the problem of post-selection inference via repeated sample splitting. Empirically, we find that while variants of the momentum effect lead to a rejection of our model, the implied beta is by far the most important predictor of cross-sectional return variation. The framework is suitable to test other implementations of the conditional CAPM or, more generally, conditional linear factor models with time-varying parameters.
