Benchmark Metrics

GMO International Quality ETF has an annualized alpha of -4.07%, beta of 0.65, and R² of 0.49 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since October 30, 2024.

  • This ETF participated in 58.99% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 33.85% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of 0.65 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.49 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 0.49 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior — treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
