Bullish Stock Market Pushes Endowments Up 21.9% in 1997, to More Than $150-Billion.
Strosnider, Kim
Chronicle of Higher Education, v44 n24 pA48,A51 Feb 20 1998
Investment returns on college and university endowments for 1997 was the sixth double-digit gain in the 1990s and the highest since 1986. Fiscal year 1998 is experiencing greater market volatility, with more modest returns predicted. Institutions with endowments of over $1 billion have increased from 20 to 25 in one year; this group holds nearly half the endowment assets. (MSE)
