The Bank reported net income of $169,000 for the three months ended June 30 compared to net income of $282,000 for the same period last year. Prior year results were impacted by an $86,000 gain on the sale of securi- ties and current year re- sults were impacted by the $115,000 provision for income taxes as the Bank became fully taxable dur- ing 2014.

WORKSHOP Meet your local Workers' Comp judge TheAssociatedPress NEW YORK Solid earnings for a range of big compa- nies helped nudge the stock market higher on Tuesday. The restaurant chain Chipotle Mexican Grill and the cable giant Comcast surged after reporting bet- ter results than Wall Street expected. "The news today is pretty good," said JJ Kinahan, chief strategist at TD Ameritrade. Kinahan pointed to a report out Tuesday that showed lit- tle sign of inflation and an overall stronger outlook for earnings. During conference calls to discuss quarterly re- sults, more CEOs are taking an optimistic tone, he said, instead of warning about possible dangers. "In the past, they all spent their time tempering expec- tations," Kinahan said. "This earnings season we're not seeing that at all. I think people are taking comfort in it." The Standard & Poor's 500 index added 9.90 points, or 0.5 percent, to 1,983.53. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 61.81 points, or 0.4 percent, to 17,113.54. The Nasdaq composite advanced 31.31 points, or 0.7 percent, to 4,456.02. Chipotle surged $69.84, or 12 percent, to $659.77, the biggest gain in the S&P 500 index. The burrito chain reported that stronger sales drove its quarterly profit up 26 percent. The restau- rant chain's results beat an- alysts' expectations, even as it raised prices on a range of menu items. Comcast, the country's largest cable company, re- ported quarterly profits that topped Wall Street's targets as more people signed up for Internet service. Com- cast gained 81 cents, or 1.5 percent, to $54.63. Wall Street is in the mid- dle of corporate earnings season, when companies release their quarterly re- sults. Investors pore over those reports to gauge the financial health of Corpo- rate America, and in turn, the U.S. economy. Roughly 150 companies in the S&P 500 will report their results this week, including AT&T and Boeing on Wednesday. Visa and Amazon will re- port on Thursday. Not all the results re- leased Tuesday were pos- itive. Weak sales of Diet Coke and fruit juice weighed down Coca-Co- la's second-quarter results, leading the company to post weaker revenue than Wall Street expected. Over- all profit fell slightly. Coca- Cola's stock sank $1.21, or 3 percent, to $41.19. Even though companies continue to post higher profits, the market still looks expensive compared to its historical average. The S&P 500 currently trades for 17.4 times earn- ings over the previous 12 months. The long-run av- erage is closer to 15.
