<p>End of fiscal year 2012 with a market value of $6.57 billion</p>

<p>End of fiscal year 2013 with a market value of $6.73 billion</p>

<p>Said marking a 6.6 percent return on investments during 2012-2013</p>

<p>0.459 billion fund raised.</p>

<p>Why is the end of 2013 fiscal year balance only 6.73 billion? How much did UChicago spend from the endowment fund? Just curious.</p>
