Benchmark Metrics
Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund Trust High Yield Portfolio has an annualized alpha of 4.47%, beta of 0.13, and R² of 0.25 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since February 08, 2012.
- This fund participated in 36.05% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 35.92% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.13 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.25 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 0.25 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.
