Benchmark Metrics
Invesco CurrencyShares Australian Dollar Trust has an annualized alpha of -1.30%, beta of 0.35, and R2 of 0.30 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since June 26, 2006.
- This ETF participated in 54.74% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 33.91% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.35 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.30 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 0.30 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.
