Benchmark Metrics

BLUE CHIP EU has an annualized alpha of 13.66%, beta of 0.66, and R² of 0.42 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since October 22, 2015.

  • This portfolio captured 112.13% of S&P 500 Index gains but only 63.92% of its losses — a favorable profile for investors.
  • Beta of 0.66 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.42 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 0.42 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.

  • 1-Year: 1.25
  • 5-Year: 1.11
  • 10-Year: 1.23
