[cnxvideo id=”625473″ placement=”ros”]24/7 Wall St. has put together a preview of some of the major companies reporting their quarterly results this week as earnings season is winding down. The Trump rally has pushed the broad markets to new highs and now the markets have backed off slightly. These upcoming earnings reports have the potential to push these markets back up to their highs.

For a look at more big earnings in the week ahead, see the Dow earnings preview.

Here we have included the consensus earnings estimates from Thomson Reuters and the stock price and trading history, as well as added some additional color on each.

Be advised that the earnings and revenue estimates may change ahead of the formal reports, and some companies may change reporting dates as well.
