Benchmark Metrics
Principal Real Estate Active Opportunities ETF has an annualized alpha of -4.14%, beta of 0.65, and R2 of 0.36 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since May 19, 2022.
- This ETF participated in 96.49% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 58.39% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.65 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.36 this ETF 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 ETF's risk.
- R2 of 0.36 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
