Benchmark Metrics

Guinness Atkinson China And Hong Kong Fund has an annualized alpha of 1.79%, beta of 0.61, and R2 of 0.21 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since November 20, 1995.

  • This fund participated in 107.67% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 90.91% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of 0.61 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.21 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 0.21 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.
