24/7 Wall St. has put together a preview of some of the major companies reporting their quarterly results this week. We are just entering into a new earnings season, when most major companies will report and set a direction for the market. 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.

A couple of the most prominent companies reporting this week are banks, which always kick off the earnings season. Although only a couple major banks are reporting this week, the rest will be along very shortly.
