The 92 US Companies With Market Caps Above $10 Bil, With December Quarter Ends And Which Have Released Their December 2016 Quarter Earnings By Wednesday, January 25, 2017 Generated Calendar 4Q 2016 Total US GAAP Earnings of $83.5 Bil, Up an Exceptionally Robust 34% From Their Total US GAAP Earnings of $62.3 Bil in the Calendar 4Q 2015 ..... It's Great To See the Largest, Very Early 4Q Earnings Reporters Register Such Exceptionally Strong Total Earnings Growth in the Final Quarter of the Obama Administration ..... It Tells You Why the US Stock Market Is At Record Highs

From a review of the very fine Google Finance Website, the excellent Yahoo Earnings Calendar Website and of company financial statements in the US SEC website, I found the 92 Companies headquartered in the US with Stock Market Capitalizations two months ago of more than $10 Bil, which have December Period Ends in the Calendar 4Q and which have filed their Calendar 4Q 2016 Financial Statements with the SEC by Wednesday, January 25, 2017.  Traditional Predominately Regulated Utilities were excluded.

Below here are the Total Reported US GAAP Earnings (Losses) From Continuing Operations for the Quarters Ended December 2016 and 2015 for each of these 92 large US Companies.
