US Textile Mill Products Manufacturing (3) Companies With Market Caps Above $1 Bil 2Q 2017 Total Earnings Were Only $284 Mil, Down 1% From the $287 Mil Total Earnings in the 2Q 2016 ..................................................................................... Mohawk Industries Is An Exceptionally Well-Run Company, But the US Having Only 3 Textile Companies With Stock Market Caps Above $1 Bil Speaks Volumes of the Economic Pressures on the Textile Industry and on US Manufacturing in General .................................................................................. The US Government Must Act Here To Improve This Horrible Hallowing Out of the US Middle Class

From a review of the Google Finance Website and of company financial statements in the US SEC website, I found the 3 Textile Mill Products Manufacturing Companies (SEC Standard Identification Codes 2200s) headquartered in the US with Stock Market Capitalizations of more than $1 Bil very recently and which have filed their Calendar Second Quarter 2017 Financial Statements with the SEC.

Below here are the Total Reported US GAAP Earnings (Losses) From Continuing Operations for the Second Calendar Quarters of both 2017 and 2016 for each of these 3 largest US Textile Mill Products Manufacturing Companies.
