  • This ETF captured 105.36% of S&P 500 Index gains and 100.68% of its losses - amplifying both gains and losses, but participating more in upside than downside.
  • Beta of 0.64 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.31 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 0.31 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
