Benchmark Metrics
GOVBONDOPT has an annualized alpha of 5.75%, beta of 0.07, and R² of 0.11 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since August 04, 2023.
- This portfolio participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (26.66%) than losses (12.14%) — typical of diversified or defensive assets.
- Beta of 0.07 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.11 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 0.11 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.
