Benchmark Metrics
Basic has an annualized alpha of 12.58%, beta of 0.40, and R² of 0.26 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since June 20, 2023.
- This portfolio captured 103.36% of S&P 500 Index gains but only 75.56% of its losses — a favorable profile for investors.
- Beta of 0.40 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.26 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 0.26 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.
