- On December 31, 2007 during President Bush's second term
- On March 6, 2009, very early in President Obama's first term, which was the lowest point for the US stock market due to the spillover effects resulting from the 2008 financial meltdown, and
- also on the most recent date February 21, 2014.
These 8 Mississippi Companies had their equally-company-weighted average stock market prices decline by a huge 43% 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 equally-company-weighted average stock market prices of these same 8 Mississippi Companies have increased by a robust 183% through February 21, 2014, led by Natchez-based Callon Petroleum Co's very impressive 617% stock market price increase since March 6, 2009.
To illustrate their consistent operating performance, all 8 Mississippi Companies had their stock market prices increase since March 6, 2009, with the lowest one being 40%.
Mississippi citizens must be pleased with the solid performance of these Mississippi Companies during the Obama Administration.
