Alpha Cluster Analysis
The Alpha Cluster Analysis uses machine learning to group stocks with similar risk-return characteristics. This helps identify different investment styles and opportunities:
- Alpha: Excess return over the benchmark (annualized %). Higher alpha indicates better performance relative to the market.
- Beta: Sensitivity to market movements. Beta > 1 means more volatile than market, Beta < 1 means less volatile.
- Sharpe Ratio: Risk-adjusted return. Higher values indicate better return per unit of risk.
- Volatility: Standard deviation of returns (annualized). Measures price fluctuation.
- Momentum: Performance over different time periods (1m, 3m, 6m, 12m). Identifies trending stocks.
- Max Drawdown: Largest peak-to-trough decline. Indicates worst-case historical loss.
- Cluster Groups:
- ⭐ Alpha Leaders - Highest alpha generators
- ● Momentum Runners - Strong recent performance
- ● Compounders - Consistent steady growth
- ● Mixed - Balanced characteristics
- ● Volatile - High risk, high potential
- ▼ Lagging - Underperformers
