Benchmark Metrics
A Portfolio SIPP has an annualized alpha of 6.03%, beta of 0.33, and R² of 0.46 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since November 03, 2016.
- This portfolio participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (56.82%) than losses (51.64%) — typical of diversified or defensive assets.
- Beta of 0.33 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.
