Benchmark Metrics
Destra Flaherty & Crumrine Preferred and Income Fund has an annualized alpha of 3.30%, beta of 0.19, and R2 of 0.21 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since April 12, 2011.
- This fund participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (30.05%) than losses (27.38%) - typical of diversified or defensive assets.
- Beta of 0.19 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.21 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 0.21 means this fund 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.
