Benchmark Metrics
20 YR/WELLESLEY/SGOV has an annualized alpha of -1.57%, beta of 0.16, and R2 of 0.13 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since May 28, 2020.
- This portfolio participated in 57.33% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 24.63% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.16 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.
