Wyoming Company Average Stock Prices Up 172% Under Obama and the US Fed, After Down 71% During Financial Meltdown

I found 2 Wyoming Headquartered Companies in Yahoo's superb Finance website or from SEC filings 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 19, 2014.

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

These 2 Wyoming Companies had their average stock market prices decline by a massive 71% 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 market prices of these same 2 Wyoming Companies have increased by a robust 172% through February 19, 2014.

Below here are the stock market prices of both of these Wyoming Companies on February 19, 2014, on March 6, 2009, and on  December 31, 2007:
