Benchmark Metrics
MAX'S PORTFOLIO has an annualized alpha of 21.37%, beta of 0.62, and R² of 0.23 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since April 06, 2023.
- This portfolio captured 171.54% of S&P 500 Index gains and 105.97% of its losses — amplifying both gains and losses, but participating more in upside than downside.
- Beta of 0.62 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.23 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 0.23 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.
