Funds managed by state Investment Board grow

After a disappointing performance in 2008, the stateâ??s retirement accounts are tilting back up.

Retirement funds managed by the state Investment Board totaled $63.3 billion as of June 30, a 2 percent increase over the Dec. 31 close of $61.8 billion, according to preliminary results.

But they are 13 percent higher than the March 31 total of $56 billion, shortly after the U.S. stock market hit its low point.
