Safe but slow

Stable but modest returns — suits capital preservation.

Sharpe ratio of -0.71 confirms poor risk-adjusted returns.

Based on 1Y max drawdown of -16.1% versus a typical market correction of ~-15%. Historical fall ratio ≈ 1.07× market. Below-average protection.

⚠️ Estimate, not a guarantee. Actual market falls vary.
