Benchmark Metrics

BEST MARTIN has an annualized alpha of 13.87%, beta of 0.40, and R2 of 0.47 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since December 18, 2013.

  • This portfolio captured 59.89% of S&P 500 Index gains and tended to rise during its downturns (downside capture of -7.14%) - a profile typical of hedging or uncorrelated assets.
  • Beta of 0.40 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.47 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 0.47 means the benchmark explains less than half of this portfolio's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
