Benchmark Metrics
Brompton European Dividend Growth ETF has an annualized alpha of 1.05%, beta of 0.54, and R2 of 0.26 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since July 21, 2017.
- This ETF participated in 93.94% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 70.22% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.54 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.26 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 0.26 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.
