All 143 Largest US Oil & Gas Cos With Stock Market Caps Above $1 Bil Generated June 2018 Quarter Total Pretax Income (PTI) of $29.471 Bil, Up an Off-the-Charts 276% From Their Total PTI of $7.842 Bil in the June 2017 Quarter, But With Huge Differences Between Large and Small Cap Sizes ........................................................................................

All 68 Largest US Oil & Gas Cos With Stock Market Caps Above $5 Bil Generated June 2018 Quarter Total Pretax Income (PTI) of $30.626 Bil, Up an Off-the-Charts 365% From Their Total PTI of $6.583 Bil in the June 2017 Quarter ........................................................................................

On the Other Hand, All 75 US Oil & Gas Cos With Stock Market Caps of $1 Bil to $5 Bil Generated June 2018 Quarter Total Pretax Loss of $1.155 Bil, a Decline of an Off-the-Charts 192% From Their Total PTI of $1.259 Bil in the June 2017 Quarter 

.......................................................................................

This is the Very Undesirable Result You Get When the US Government's Focus is Nearly All On Big Oil & Gas (Both in the US and in Russia) With Very Little Consideration Given to US Small Oil & Gas and US Medium-Sized Oil & Gas

........................................................................................

But the Problem Here is Even Larger

........................................................................................

Of These 68 Largest US Oil & Gas Cos With Market Caps Above $5 Bil, the 44 HQed in Texas Generated June 2018 Quarter Total Pretax Income (PTI) of $21.440 Bil, Up an Even More Spectacularly Off-the-Charts 827% From Their Total PTI of $2.312 Bil in the June 2017 Quarter. This 827% Earnings Growth Was also a Spectacularly Off-the-Charts Earnings Growth Acceleration From Their Already Exceptional 72% Earnings Growth in the March 2018 Quarter Over the March 2017 Quarter 
...........................................................................................................................
The Latter Result is What Happens When the US Government is Overloaded With Many Very Powerful Texans, Including One Who Was Formerly the Very Savvy CEO of the US Biggest Oil .....  Exxon Mobil
..........................................................................................................................

From a review of SEC filings, the below chart shows the US GAAP Pretax Income (Loss) From Continuing Operations for the June 2018, the June 2017, the March 2018 and the March 2017 Quarters as well as for the First Half of 2018 and 2017 for the 143 Largest US Oil & Gas Companies including Partnerships with June Quarter Ends, which have released their June 2018 quarter earnings by August 9, 2018 and which had stock market caps above $1 Bil in the second quarter of 2018.
