Drawdown” measures the maximum observed loss from a peak to a trough, before a new peak is attained. Maximum drawdown is an indicator of downside risk over a specified time period (smaller is preferable). “Correlation” measures the Fund’s relationship to a selected index or benchmark. A correlation of -1.0 shows a perfect negative correlation, while a correlation of 1.0 shows a perfect positive correlation; a correlation of 0.0 shows no linear relationship between the movement of the two variables. “Beta” measures the volatility of the Fund relative to a selected index or benchmark; a lower Beta typically implies less market risk, while a higher Beta typically implies more market risk. “Upside/Downside Capture” statistics measure the Fund’s performance during the up or down moves, respectively, of an index; the statistics displayed are the geometric average of Fund performance during up and down months for the TSX index and the XBB ETF, respectively (typically you want more upside capture and less downside capture). “SPAC” refers to a Special Purpose Acquisition Company.
