The 298 US Companies With Market Caps Several Months Ago of $10-40 Bil Registered First Half 2016 US GAAP Total Earnings of $107 Bil, Down Only 2% From Their First Half 2015 Total Earnings of $109 Bil ..... In Comparison, Annual Total Audited Earnings of These US Companies in 2015 Decreased by a Sharp 25% From Annual 2014

From a review of the very fine Google Finance Website and of company financial statements in the US SEC website, I found the 298 Companies headquartered in the US with Stock Market Capitalizations several months ago of $10-40 Bil.  Traditional Regulated Utility Companies are excluded. 

These 298 US Companies posted First Half 2016 US GAAP Earnings From Continuing Operations of $107 Bil, which were down 2% from the $109 Bil registered in the First Half 2015.  The First Half Earnings amounts are predominately for the Six Months Ended June, with the remainder being for the Six Months Ended in either May or in July.

Below here are the total reported US GAAP Earnings (Losses) From Continuing Operations for the First Half of both 2016 and 2015 of the 298 US Companies with Market Caps several months ago of $10-40 Bil, with the Total Earnings amounts presented in Company Stock Market Capitalization order of several months ago:
