The NASDAQ TARP Index (QGRI)
The NASDAQ announced that it has created an index to track the stock price performance of certain companies who have received TARP funding. Although it doesn't include all of the companies that have received funding, we think this is a great first step in tracking the performance of our new portfolio acquisitions. (Don't forget that if you pay U.S. taxes you now own these equities too!). We've included the index quote below, so feel free to check in daily on the investments the Department of Treasury has made on your behalf. Note that the index started at 1,000.
