Benchmark Metrics
Access Flex Bear High Yield ProFund has an annualized alpha of -4.75%, beta of -0.28, and R2 of 0.44 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since January 03, 2006.
- This fund tended to rise when S&P 500 Index fell (downside capture of -37.51%), but participation in market rallies was also limited (-37.98%) - a profile typical of counter-cyclical assets.
- Beta of -0.28 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.44 this fund 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 fund's risk.
- R2 of 0.44 means the benchmark explains less than half of this fund's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
