Benchmark Metrics

PFG Tactical Income Strategy Fund has an annualized alpha of -0.50%, beta of 0.37, and R² of 0.36 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since May 04, 2020.

  • This fund participated in 58.22% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 38.04% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of 0.37 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.36 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 0.36 means the benchmark explains less than half of this fund's behavior — treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
