  What is...?
R Squared
A measure of the fluctuations in a fund's value compared to fluctuations in its benchmark (such as the S&P 500 or other market index). If a portfolio performs exactly the same as its benchmark, its squared would be 100; if there is no correlation in performance, the R squared would be 0. Large, highly diversified funds have high R-squared values. Source: E*TRADE FINANCIAL
