Benchmark Metrics

  • This fund participated in 52.99% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 52.20% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of 0.37 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.05 this fund 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 fund's risk.
  • R2 of 0.05 means this fund 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.
