Benchmark Metrics

LAZY WHALE has an annualized alpha of 12.27%, beta of 0.69, and R² of 0.46 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since June 27, 2018.

  • This portfolio participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (97.78%) than losses (63.66%) — typical of diversified or defensive assets.
  • Beta of 0.69 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.46 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 0.46 means the benchmark explains less than half of this portfolio's behavior — treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.

Sharpe Ratio

The Sharpe ratio helps investors understand how much return they're getting for the level of risk taken. A higher Sharpe ratio indicates better risk-adjusted performance, meaning more reward for each unit of risk.

LAZY WHALE Sharpe ratios as of Apr 10, 2026 (values are recalculated daily):

  • 1-Year: 1.84
  • 5-Year: 0.87
  • All Time: 1.06

These values reflect how efficiently the investment has delivered returns relative to its volatility over different time periods. All figures are annualized and based on daily total returns (including price changes and dividends).

Compared to the broad market, where average Sharpe ratios range from 1.86 to 2.87, this portfolio's current Sharpe ratio places it in the bottom 25%. This suggests weaker risk-adjusted returns than most portfolios, possibly due to lower returns, higher volatility, or both. It may be worth reviewing the allocation. You can use the Portfolio Optimization tool to explore options for improving the Sharpe ratio.
