Profits Rise in Second Quarter Across 1981 Firms
The New York Times reports corporate profits rose in Q2 1981 from a weak Q3 1980 base, with about 70 percent of 282 firms posting gains and 30 percent showing declines. Analysts warn profits may dip in Q3 due to inflation, currency shifts, and other unpredictable factors. Major sectors showed signs of stabilizing after distortions from inflation and recession, though metals and mining suffered sharply from higher exploration costs, low metal prices, and a miners strike. Exxon remains the largest company, followed by General Motors, Mobil, Texaco, Ford, and Standard Oil Co. of California. Most industries are expected to post mixed, generally weaker profits in Q3 versus a year earlier.
