Nevada Company Audited Earnings Improvement Was $10.5 Bil For 2013 Under Obama/Reid/ Bernanke&Yellen vs. For 2008 Under Bush/Cheney

From an extensive review of SEC filings, I found 27 Companies headquartered in Nevada with current Stock Market Capitalizations of at least $100 mil or for Nevada Companies which don't have their common stock trading, Total Equity currently of at least $100 mil.  These Nevada Companies also had audited financial statements filed with the SEC which contained Audited Net Income or Net Loss amounts for all years 2008 through the most recent year.

These 27 Largest Nevada Corps had Audited under US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP) Total After-tax Net Income From Continuing Operations of $2.3 bil in the most recent fiscal year 2013, when Harry Reid was a Democratic Nevada US Senator, when Barack Obama was President and when the US Federal Reserve was headed by the brilliant twosome of Ben Bernanke and Janet Yellen.  This was a massive Audited Earnings Improvement of $10.5 bil as compared with the $8.2 bil Audited Net Loss generated five years earlier in 2008, the last year of the Bush/Cheney Administration, when the US financial meltdown occurred, which particularly devastated the State of Nevada, its residents and its businesses.

So if the question to be answered is whether, in the aggregate, these 27 Nevada Companies are better off now than they were in the last year of the Bush/Cheney Administration, the answer is clearly yes, and substantially so to the tune of $10.5 bil better, as earnings performance is measured by the prestigious US Accounting Profession.

And in the most recent fiscal year 2013 the Total Audited Net Earnings of these 27 Nevada Companies of $2.314 bil was a truly off-the-charts 780% above that of just one year earlier in 2012 of only $0.263 bil.

Below here is the Audited under US GAAP After-tax Net Income or Net Loss for each of these 27 Nevada Companies for 2013, 2012, 2009 and 2008.  The overwhelming majority of these Companies have a December Fiscal Year End (FYE).
