At this pace, earnings growth will top the first quarter's record 26% increase

Forty-eight companies have disclosed second quarter profit and revenue well above expectations. Textron beat by 25 percent, WW Grainger by 17 percent and Morgan Stanley by 13 percent. With 10 percent of companies in the S&P 500 reporting as of Wednesday morning, it looks like another above-trend quarter.
