Benchmark Metrics
Pacer Trendpilot US Mid Cap ETF has an annualized alpha of 1.58%, beta of 0.40, and R2 of 0.31 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since January 04, 2016.
- This ETF participated in 65.68% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 51.08% of its upside - more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
- Beta of 0.40 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.31 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 0.31 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
