CHARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia’s $19 billion investment portfolio is on pace to earn 2 percent this year, according to the latest Performance Report from the state Investment Management Board.

That month, the value of state investments had fallen 3.2 percent and were down year-to-date by 4.5 percent.
