Benchmark Metrics
iShares MSCI Frontier 100 ETF has an annualized alpha of -1.93%, beta of 0.53, and R² of 0.37 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since September 14, 2012.
- This ETF participated in 74.33% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 48.94% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.53 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.37 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 0.37 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior — treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
