Benchmark Metrics
CDN RRIF has an annualized alpha of 2.95%, beta of 0.35, and R² of 0.30 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since January 24, 2023.
- This portfolio participated in 50.66% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 44.46% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.35 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.30 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 0.30 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.
