Benchmark Metrics
Metals - Sell Option has an annualized alpha of 35.23%, beta of 0.66, and R² of 0.06 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since January 05, 2016.
- This portfolio captured 146.53% of S&P 500 Index gains but only 66.26% of its losses — a favorable profile for investors.

- R² of 0.06 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.
