24/7 Wall St. has put together a preview of some of the major companies reporting their quarterly results as we enter the last month of 2016. We have included the consensus earnings estimates from Thomson Reuters and the stock price and trading history, as well as some additional color on each.

It’s worth noting that the U.S. presidential election has ended, and markets have been pushed to record highs. The question remains as to whether earnings can keep propping up this rally.

Keep in mind that the earnings and revenue estimates may change ahead of the formal reports, and some companies may reschedule reporting dates as well. Also the prices noted in this article were taken on Wednesday.
