4 Largest US Drug Delivery Company Stock Prices Down 57% Due to Financial Meltdown Spillover Effects, Then Up 524% Under Obama and the US Fed

I found 4 US Drug Delivery Companies classified in the Health Care Sector at Yahoo's superb Finance website with current Total Market Capitalizations of at least $100 mil and which also had their common stocks trading on each of the following three dates:

  • On December 31, 2007 or first trading very shortly thereafter during President Bush's second term
  • On March 6, 2009, very early in President Obama's first term, which was their lowest point due to the spillover effects resulting from the 2008 financial meltdown, and 
  • also on the most recent date February 14, 2014.

The historical common stock prices of these companies were obtained from the following two excellent internet resources....  Google Finance and MarketWatch Big Charts.

These 4 largest US Drug Delivery Companies had their average stock prices decline by a huge 57% from December 31, 2007 during President Bush's second Presidential term, to March 6, 2009, very early in President Obama's first term, which was the very lowest point for the overall stock market due to the spillover effects resulting from the disastrous 2008 Financial Meltdown.

But in the slightly less than five years since March 6, 2009, the average stock prices of these same 4 largest US Drug Delivery Companies have increased by a very impressive 524% through February 14, 2014, led by Houston, TX-based Bio-Path Holdings.

Clearly, a majority of the investors in and employees of these 4 largest US Drug Delivery Companies must be pleased with the impact of actions taken by both the Obama Administration and the US Fed to successfully rescue the US economy from its extremely weakened state.

Also, all of these US Drug Delivery Companies are huge beneficiaries of the Affordable Care Act. 

Below here are the stock market prices of each of these 4 largest US Drug Delivery Companies on February 14, 2014, on March 6, 2009, and on  December 31, 2007:
