S&P500 Earnings – Estimates For Years 2015 Through 2017

As many are aware, Thomson Reuters publishes earnings estimates for the S&P500.  (My other posts concerning S&P earnings estimates can be found under the S&P500 Earnings tag)
The following estimates are from Exhibit 12 of “The Director’s Report” (pdf) of May 20, 2015, and represent an aggregation of individual S&P500 component “bottom up” analyst forecasts.  For reference, the Year 2013 value is $109.68/share:
Year 2014 estimate:
$118.78/share
Year 2015 estimate:
$119.27/share
Year 2016 estimate:
$133.96/share
Year 2017 estimate:
$149.44/share

I post various economic forecasts because I believe they should be carefully monitored.  However, as those familiar with this blog are aware, I do not agree with many of the consensus estimates and much of the commentary in these forecast surveys.
