Benchmark Metrics
Matthews China Active ETF has an annualized alpha of -2.81%, beta of 0.62, and R² of 0.12 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since July 15, 2022.
- This ETF participated in 104.29% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 56.41% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.62 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.12 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 0.12 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.
