      i
      Fund performance relative to the index when the market is up. An upside capture ratio of >100 indicates better fund performance.

    HISTORICAL RISK MEASURES

    Statistical measures to evaluate mutual fund risk. All ratios are calculated for a three-year time duration.
    • Alpha: Excess return of the fund over benchmark
      i

    • R-Squared: How well the fund tracks benchmark
