Isolating Out the Giant Walmart, Arkansas Companies Performed Substantially Better on the Audited Annual Pretax Earnings Growth Front During the Obama Administration's Eight Years in Office (2009-2016) ..... Up a Completely Off-the-Charts Average Growth of 155% Per Year ..... Than They Did During the Trump Administration's First Three Full Years in Office (2017-2019) ..... Precisely Flat 0.0% Average Growth Per Year. Walmart Performed Slightly Better During the Obama Years Than During the Trump Years.

From a review of SEC filings and Google Finance, there were 10 Arkansas Companies with stock market caps of above $500 mil recently 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 twelve years (Years from 2008-2019).  I included Companies which were headquartered in Arkansas for at least 6 of these 12 years.  

The table below shows the Pretax Income (Loss) From Continuing Operations for each of these 10 Arkansas Companies for fiscal year end 2019, the last year of the Trump Administration's first three full years in office so far,  for fiscal year end 2016, the year before the start of the Trump Administration as well as also the last year of the Obama Administration, and for fiscal year end 2008, the year before the start of the Obama Administration.
