Benchmark Metrics

VanEck AA-BB CLO ETF has an annualized alpha of 5.07%, beta of 0.12, and R² of 0.13 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since September 26, 2024.

  • This ETF captured 24.97% of S&P 500 Index gains and tended to rise during its downturns (downside capture of -1.81%) — a profile typical of hedging or uncorrelated assets.
  • Beta of 0.12 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.13 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 0.13 means this ETF 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.
