Benchmark Metrics

Direxion Daily PLTR Bear 1X Shares has an annualized alpha of -31.27%, beta of -2.04, and R² of 0.32 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since December 12, 2024.

  • This ETF participated in 276.31% of S&P 500 Index downside but only -76.50% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of -2.04 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.32 this ETF 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 ETF's risk.
  • R² of 0.32 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior — treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
