Benchmark Metrics
option_7 has an annualized alpha of 7.79%, beta of 0.40, and R² of 0.28 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since February 23, 2015.
- This portfolio participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (79.54%) than losses (69.07%) — typical of diversified or defensive assets.
- Beta of 0.40 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.28 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 0.28 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.
