Benchmark Metrics
ProShares UltraShort FTSE China 50 has an annualized alpha of 12.20%, beta of -2.19, and R2 of 0.45 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since November 08, 2007.
- This ETF tended to rise when S&P 500 Index fell (downside capture of -114.97%), but participation in market rallies was also limited (-104.64%) - a profile typical of counter-cyclical assets.
- Beta of -2.19 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.45 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 0.45 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
