New York 21 Largest Financial Company Audited Profits Were $169 bil in 2 Years 2012 and 2013 vs Losses of $99 bil in 2 Years 2008 and 2009

Since the US Senate Races deciding who will get control of the US Senate are really heating up and many of them appear to be tossups and also since many of the US Senate fundraisers have been held in the New York Metro Area, with many more planned, I think it would be helpful to research how the 21 New York Financial Companies with Market Capitalizations now of at least $10 bil each and with annual audited financial statements filed with the SEC covering all years from 2007 to 2013 have done on the earnings front before, during and after the late 2008 financial meltdown..

The Total Audited Net Income from Continuing Operations of these 21 largest New York Financial Companies for the 2 Most Recent Years 2012 and 2013 totaled $168.9 bil vs Total Audited Net Losses from Continuing Operations for the 2 Years 2008 and 2009 of a devastating $99.0 bil.

In addition, the Total Audited Earnings of these 21 largest New York Financial Companies in 2013 of $95.3 bil were up 34% over the comparable earnings in 2007 of $71.4 bil, which was the peak year earnings before the disastrous effects of the 2008 financial meltdown hit......they not only recouped the earnings they lost with the financial meltdown, but they also added another 34% of earnings.   

This incredibly off-the-charts earnings resurrection for these 21 largest New York Financial Companies from 2008 and 2009 to the most recent 2013 occurred when the US Senate was under Democratic control and also when Barack Obama was US President.  The US financial meltdown occurred in late 2008 when George W. Bush was US President.

Given the above annual earnings history, it only makes sense to me that the earnings in the next two years of New York Financial Companies, and also frankly of all US Companies in all industries, have a much higher chance of being much better under a US Senate controlled by the Democrats than by the Republicans.  I think the many smart New York Financial people have already figured all of this out.  And the economic beneficiaries of a US Senate controlled by the Democrats will also be the many US customers of these financially astute New York Financial Companies.

Below here are the Audited Net Income (Losses) of each of these 21 largest New York Financial Companies for each of the following six years: 2013, 2012, 2011, 2009, 2008 and 2007:
