Benchmark Metrics

gld_bit_uup has an annualized alpha of 12.97%, beta of 0.37, and R2 of 0.13 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since October 19, 2021.

  • This portfolio participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (62.79%) than losses (28.18%) - typical of diversified or defensive assets.
  • Beta of 0.37 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.13 this portfolio is largely uncorrelated with S&P 500 Index - low beta reflects independence, not downside protection. See the Volatility section for a true picture of this portfolio's risk.
  • R2 of 0.13 means this portfolio moves largely independently of S&P 500 Index - capture ratios reflect limited market correlation rather than active downside protection. Consider using a more representative benchmark.
