Benchmark Metrics
iShares iBonds 2030 Term High Yield and Income ETF has an annualized alpha of 4.04%, beta of 0.25, and R2 of 0.38 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since June 26, 2023.
- This ETF participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (33.29%) than losses (27.34%) - typical of diversified or defensive assets.
- Beta of 0.25 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.38 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 0.38 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
