Benchmark Metrics
PIMCO 15+ Year US TIPS Index ETF has an annualized alpha of 5.32%, beta of -0.09, and R2 of 0.01 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since September 08, 2009.
- This ETF participated in 20.21% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 17.76% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of -0.09 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.01 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 0.01 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.
