Benchmark Metrics
Franklin FTSE Eurozone ETF has an annualized alpha of 2.67%, beta of 0.64, and R2 of 0.46 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since November 06, 2017.
- This ETF participated in 72.35% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 68.55% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.64 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.46 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 0.46 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
