Risk-Adjusted Returns

Sharpe Ratio Calculator

Measures return per unit of risk. A ratio above 1.0 means you're being adequately rewarded for the volatility you're taking on. Uses 1 year of daily closing prices.

The Formula
Sharpe = (Annual Return − Risk Free Rate) ÷ Annual Std Dev

Annual Return — average daily return × 252 trading days. Your raw reward.

Risk Free Rate — what you'd earn in a US T-bill with zero risk (~4.3% today). The floor below which taking risk makes no sense.

Standard Deviation — how wildly the stock swings day to day, annualised. High beta stocks like yours (3.1–3.2) will have high std dev, which penalises their Sharpe ratio even if raw returns look great.
