• This ETF participated in 81.90% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 66.98% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
• Beta of 0.47 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.24 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 0.24 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.
