When determining which index to use and for what period, we selected the index that we deemed to fairly represent the characteristics of the referenced market, given the available choices. For U.S. stock market returns, we use the Standard & Poor s 90 Index from 1926 to March 3, 1957; the Standard & Poor s 500 Index from March 4, 1957, to 1974; the Wilshire 5000 Index from 1975 to April 22, 2005; the MSCI US Broad Market Index through June 2, 2013; and the CRSP US Total Market Index thereafter. For U.S. bond market returns, we use the Standard & Poor's High Grade Corporate Index from 1926 to 1968; the Citigroup High Grade Index from 1969 to 1972; the Lehman Brothers U.S. Long Credit AA Index from 1973 to 1975; the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index from 1976 to 2009; and the Spliced Barclays U.S. Aggregate Float Adjusted Bond Index thereafter. For U.S. short-term reserves, we use the Ibbotson U.S. 1-Month Treasury Bill Index from 1926 to 1977, and the Citigroup 3-Month Treasury Bill Index thereafter. Unlike stocks and bonds, U.S. Treasury bills are guaranteed as to the timely payment of principal and interest.
