    1. I'm guessing this is a rhetorical question ... they just count the $$

  2. I would've thought Amazon would top Apple. Saw a Tucker (I think) video where the guest said big tobacco was loaded with cash when the guv went after them. Philip Morris and ? were the richest companies at the time. They used that money to buy food companies. Then they used their scientist to make food addictive like cigarettes.

    1. By annual revenue, rather than market cap, Amazon kicks Apple around the block, $604B vs. $385B.

  3. See SAP down there in the right hand corner? Asking people is they ever heard of SAP is good test to see if they even know how the world works. Most of the companies on that graphic, including Microsoft, run SAP.

    1. I used SAP for years, then moved to a company that uses Oracle. SAP is a much better MRP platform.

    1. Didn't make the cut.
      Smallfry pharma company.
      Market cap of "only" $160B.
      Overall, they're #91 of the world's top 100 companies, 6 slots behind Disney, but among [pharma companies, despite being smaller than the ones on that chart, Pfizer has the highest annual revenue of all of them.

      This chart is only comparing them by market cap, not annual revenue.
