Benchmark Metrics
Europe has an annualized alpha of 7.15%, beta of 0.62, and R2 of 0.40 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since July 16, 2007.
- This portfolio captured 101.23% of S&P 500 Index gains but only 86.91% of its losses - a favorable profile for investors.
- Beta of 0.62 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.40 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 0.40 means the benchmark explains less than half of this portfolio's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
