Benchmark Metrics

IBEX 35 Index has an annualized alpha of -1.89%, beta of 0.50, and R² of 0.19 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since September 09, 1991.

  • This index participated in 75.02% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 44.70% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of 0.50 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.19 this index 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 index's risk.
  • R² of 0.19 means this index 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.
