Benchmark Metrics

iShares MSCI USA Quality Dividend Advanced UCITS ETF USD (Dist) has an annualized alpha of 6.01%, beta of 0.44, and R2 of 0.27 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since June 06, 2014.

  • This ETF participates in less of S&P 500 Index's moves in both directions, but captures a larger share of gains (80.88%) than losses (79.30%) - typical of diversified or defensive assets.
  • Beta of 0.44 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.27 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 0.27 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.
