Benchmark Metrics
2000-2009 Europe has an annualized alpha of 3.57%, beta of 0.29, and R2 of 0.33 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since September 24, 2019.
- This portfolio participated in 58.54% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 47.89% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.29 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.33 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 0.33 means the benchmark explains less than half of this portfolio's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
