Benchmark Metrics

Balanced 6 has an annualized alpha of 2.70%, beta of 0.50, and R2 of 0.29 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since September 25, 2019.

  • This portfolio participated in 92.00% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 74.33% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of 0.50 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.29 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 0.29 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.

  • 1-Year: 2.05
  • 5-Year: 0.54
