Greater Los Angeles Area Headquartered Companies Performed Substantially Better on the Audited Pretax Earnings Growth Front During Obama/Biden's Last Three Years in Office (+7.1% Per Year) Than They Did During Trump/Pence's First Three Years in Office (+1.6% Per Year) and This Was Before the Devastating Earnings Impact From Covid-19

From a review of SEC filings and Google Finance, there were 74 Greater Los Angeles Area Headquartered  Companies with stock market caps recently of above $1 bil and which reported Pretax Income (Loss) From Continuing Operations in their annual financial statement earnings information filed with the SEC for each of the most recent seven years (Fiscal Years from 2013 to 2019).  Also, I included only Companies which were headquartered in California for the majority of these seven years.

The table below shows the Pretax Income (Loss) From Continuing Operations for each of these seven fiscal years for each of these 74 largest Los Angeles Area Companies.
