The Treynor Ratio is a significant measure of risk-adjusted return used in portfolio management and financial analysis. Unlike the Sharpe Ratio, which evaluates total risk, the Treynor Ratio focuses solely on market risk, measured by beta.
Treynor Ratio is shown as n/m ("not meaningful") when a portfolio ingredients's beta is between -0.20 and +0.20. The Treynor ratio divides excess return by beta, so values of beta near zero produce extreme or unstable results that are not meaningful for comparison. Portfolios with low beta are not necessarily low risk. Refer to Standard Deviation, Downside Deviation, and Maximum Drawdown for measures of risk.
