Today's chart provides
some
perspective on the current earnings environment by focusing on
12-month, as reported S&P 500 earnings. Today's chart illustrates
how earnings are expected (38% of S&P 500 companies have reported
for Q2 2009) to have declined over 98% since peaking in Q3 2007, making
this by far the largest decline on record (the data goes back to 1936).
In fact, real earnings have dropped to a record low and if current
estimates hold, Q3 2009 will see the first 12-month period during which
S&P 500 earnings are negative.
