Benchmark Metrics

USD/MXN has an annualized alpha of 2.38%, beta of 0.10, and R² of 0.02 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since May 04, 2007.

  • This currency participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (12.51%) than losses (6.55%) — typical of diversified or defensive assets.
  • Beta of 0.10 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.02 this currency 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 currency's risk.
  • R² of 0.02 means this currency 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.
