The Index

BankruptcyData's Post-Bankruptcy Stock Index (PBSI) tracks the performance of publicly traded companies that have recently reorganized and emerged from bankruptcy. Constructed and managed by analysts at BankruptcyData.com, the bankruptcy and restructuring industry's database of record, the PBSI provides the only expert-curated index of post-bankrupt stocks. 

The bankruptcy process helps struggling companies eliminate debt burdens and fundamentally restructure. Companies emerging from bankruptcy always have secured financing and can present an attractive opportunity to investors. Many leading companies in today's economy - like American Airlines and General Motors - have emerged from bankruptcy and seen enormous success. And the PBSI utilizes the expertise of BankruptcyData to provide the best possible return: companies like Sears, which have little chance of long-term survival, are not included in the index.
