Benchmark Metrics

EMERGING MARKETS BONDS has an annualized alpha of 2.32%, beta of 0.20, and R² of 0.34 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since January 05, 2016.

  • This portfolio participated in 39.33% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 32.41% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of 0.20 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.34 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 0.34 means the benchmark explains less than half of this portfolio's behavior — treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
