Benchmark Metrics

Touchstone Flexible Income Fund has an annualized alpha of 3.43%, beta of 0.14, and R² of 0.17 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since January 21, 1998.

  • This fund participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (25.51%) than losses (19.18%) — typical of diversified or defensive assets.
  • Beta of 0.14 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.17 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 0.17 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.
