Benchmark Metrics
LSV Emerging Markets Equity Fund has an annualized alpha of 4.41%, beta of 0.52, and R² of 0.43 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since January 28, 2019.
- This fund participated in 76.83% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 73.77% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.52 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.43 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 0.43 means the benchmark explains less than half of this fund's behavior — treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
