• This ETF participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (67.00%) than losses (58.93%) - typical of diversified or defensive assets.
• Beta of 0.40 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.
