Vermont Company Average Stock Prices Up 498% Under Obama, Sanders, Leahy and the US Fed, After Being Down 35% Due to Financial Meltdown

I found 4 Vermont Headquartered Companies in 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 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 20, 2014.

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

These 4 Vermont Headquartered Companies had their equally-company-weighted average stock market prices decline by a huge 35% 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 4 Vermont Headquartered Companies have increased by a very impressive 498% through February 20, 2014, led by the very well run Green Mountain Coffee Roasters's massive 1,315% stock market price appreciation since March 6, 2009.

All 4 Vermont Companies had their stock market prices increase since March 6, 2009 with the lowest increase being 45%.

Vermont citizens must be  very pleased with the strong performance of these Vermont Companies during the Obama Administration.

Below here are the stock market prices of these 4 Vermont Companies on February 20, 2014, on March 6, 2009, and on December 31, 2007:
