NOTE: Index data were not available for 1995. The 1995 annual value was derived using linear regression. A linear trend line was developed
using data points from March 2000 and before. Based on this trend line, we estimate a 0.52 decrease in the annual index from year to year.
The 1995 annual index value is estimated to be 97.5.
