The 92 Largest New York State Financial Cos Saw Their Audited Total Pretax Income Growth Decelerate From 13% in Annual 2017 to 6% in Annual 2018, Due Mainly to Icahn Enterprises, Blackstone Group and KKR

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

From a review of SEC filings, Google Finance, MSN Money and Market Watch Big Charts, I found 92 New York State Financial Companies with stock markets caps of above $1 bil sometime since the beginning of 2018 and which filed their 2018 Fiscal Year Ended (FYE) financial statements with the SEC.

My Focus is on Pretax Income rather than on After-Tax Net Income because Income Taxes are simply a transfer of financial wealth between US Corporations and the US Federal, US State and Foreign Governments.  It has nothing whatsoever to do with company operating performance.

From these SEC filings, the chart below shows the Audited Gold-Standard US GAAP Pretax Income (Loss) From Continuing Operations for the Fiscal Years Ended (FYEs) 2018, 2017 and 2016  for each of these 92 New York State Financial Companies.
