Benchmark Metrics

AIBAX has an annualized alpha of 4.10%, beta of -0.01, and R² of 0.00 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since January 04, 1990.

  • This portfolio captured 10.95% of S&P 500 Index gains and tended to rise during its downturns (downside capture of -5.40%) — a profile typical of hedging or uncorrelated assets.
