Benchmark Metrics

2026 has an annualized alpha of 3.39%, beta of 0.25, and R2 of 0.27 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since July 16, 2019.

  • This portfolio participated in 48.78% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 40.24% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of 0.25 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.27 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 0.27 means this portfolio moves largely independently of S&P 500 Index - capture ratios reflect limited market correlation rather than active downside protection. Consider using 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. Learn how to interpret the Sharpe ratio.

The current 2026 Sharpe ratio is 1.55 as of Jun 13, 2026 (the value is recalculated daily), calculated over the past 12 months.

Compared to the broad market, where average Sharpe ratios range from 1.53 to 2.41, this portfolio's current Sharpe ratio falls between the 25th and 75th percentiles. This indicates that its risk-adjusted performance is in line with the majority of portfolios, suggesting a balanced approach to risk and return—likely suitable for a wide range of investors.
