Benchmark Metrics

SA International Value Fund has an annualized alpha of 3.61%, beta of 0.53, and R² of 0.30 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since January 04, 2000.

  • Beta of 0.53 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.30 this fund 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 fund's risk.
  • R² of 0.30 means the benchmark explains less than half of this fund's behavior — treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
