November 19, 2007 Third-Quarter Earnings By Sector

So far, it looks like earnings for the S&P 500 will decline about 8.5% from last year. The pain, however, is not being felt equally.

Health Care.............................14.80%
Information Technology...........13.68%
Consumer Staples...................12.61%
Industrials...............................11.82%
Materials..................................5.50%
Telecommunication Services.....4.09%
Utilities.....................................0.73%
S&P 500...................................-8.48%
Energy.....................................-9.92%
Financials................................-33.15%
Consumer Discretionary...........-38.94%

The lousy number for the Consumer Discretionary sector is due to the homebuilders.
