Benchmark Metrics
PGIM Total Return Bond ETF has an annualized alpha of 3.23%, beta of 0.11, and R2 of 0.11 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since December 09, 2021.
- This ETF participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (19.09%) than losses (15.88%) - typical of diversified or defensive assets.
- Beta of 0.11 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.11 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 0.11 means this ETF 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.
