Decent · 55/100

A solid option with a few areas worth a closer look.

🎯 A middle-ground option — some growth with a cushion, good for moderate risk appetite.

📈 Why it could do well

  • Protects capital well — worst-ever fall was only 17%.
  • Low volatility (6% a year) — a steady, low-drama ride.
  • Positive 3Y windows: 100% of rolling 3Y windows positive
  • Return stability: rolling-return std 1.6%

📉 What could drag it down

  • Weak risk-adjusted returns (Sharpe 0.30) — took on risk without enough payoff.
  • 3Y CAGR: +7.8%
  • 3Y CAGR vs category: -1.3% vs category avg
