LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - The rising stock market has raised the value of the Arkansas Public Retirement System's investments.
Investment consultant John Krimmel told system trustees Wednesday that the investments rose in value from $4.3 billion to $5 billion in the quarter that ended Sept. 30. The increase does not fully restore the $5.6 billion investment value the system had before the recession and stock market declines.
