Benchmark Metrics

- This fund participated in 67.87% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 65.25% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.49 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.08 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 0.08 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.
