Benchmark Metrics
PACE High Yield Investments has an annualized alpha of 4.86%, beta of 0.11, and R2 of 0.16 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since April 11, 2006.
- This fund participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (40.58%) than losses (40.34%) - typical of diversified or defensive assets.
- Beta of 0.11 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.16 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 0.16 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.
