Jan. 4--Despite the worst year for stocks in nearly 80 years, a few central Ohio companies were able to find a little daylight in the darkness of 2008.
The Dow Jones industrial average ended 2007 at 13,264, dropped as low as 7,552 on Nov. 20, and closed the year at 8,776, a loss of 33.8 percent.
The meager honor roll included: State Auto, which finished the year up 14.3 percent at $30.06; Park National, which was up 11.2 percent at $71.75; and M/I Homes, which lost 73 percent in 2007 but was up 4 cents and 0.4 percent in 2008, closing at $10.54.
