Benchmark Metrics

ProShares UltraShort Ether ETF has an annualized alpha of 111.19%, beta of -4.29, and R² of 0.24 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since June 10, 2024.

  • This ETF tended to rise when S&P 500 Index fell (downside capture of -1138.16%), but participation in market rallies was also limited (-229.62%) — a profile typical of counter-cyclical assets.
  • Beta of -4.29 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.
