Response Genetics 1-Year Sortino Ratio Calculation

The 1-Year Sortino Ratio measures the risk-adjusted return of an investment asset or portfolio over the past year, focusing specifically on downside risk rather than total risk. A stock / portfolio's 1-Year Sortino Ratio can be calculated by dividing the difference between the one-year returns of the investment and the risk-free rate, by the standard deviation of the downside risks over one year.

A downside risk is a potential loss from the asset or investment. The Downside risk here is measured by the downside deviation, which is the standard deviation of negative returns.


Response Genetics  (OTCPK:RGDXQ) 1-Year Sortino Ratio Explanation
