Benchmark Metrics

David has an annualized alpha of 11.64%, beta of 0.25, and R² of 0.31 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since December 29, 2022.

  • This portfolio captured 40.52% of S&P 500 Index gains and tended to rise during its downturns (downside capture of -31.65%) — a profile typical of hedging or uncorrelated assets.
  • Beta of 0.25 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.31 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 0.31 means the benchmark explains less than half of this portfolio's behavior — treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
