Benchmark Metrics
Global X U.S. Electrification ETF has an annualized alpha of 20.71%, beta of 0.57, and R2 of 0.35 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since December 18, 2024.
- This ETF captured 87.65% of S&P 500 Index gains and tended to rise during its downturns (downside capture of -23.69%) - a profile typical of hedging or uncorrelated assets.
- Beta of 0.57 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.35 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 0.35 means the benchmark explains less than half of this ETF's behavior - treat beta with caution or consider switching to a more representative benchmark.
