Did Walmart disappear in 2015?
Yes.
BHP appeared twice in 2011 though...
No, it is simply undergoing a name change to 'Martial Law'.
And Toyota was once Japans backbone
Is it just me or is Alphabet Inc a ridiculous name for a giant company? Sounds like some kind of inside joke.
Same guys that came up with Google....
I was just about to say the same thing. Go back to GOOGLE already. Inside joke? Maybe the founders think that we are all on the level of Spot and Jane and coloring with crayons, but c'mon.... This is the worst name for any company - ever!
Maybe they are telling us that the alphabet agencies are running the company...hidden in plain sight.
It came from the number called a "googol:" 10^100.
correct; and way back when i was a kid in grade school i was told the 'largest' number in the universe was googol plex
'Bpftsplk' was already trademarked by Al Capp.
Too creepy to call themselfes Alpha-Omega... Which is more appropriate as the know-it-all company.
I missed the CBS 60 minutes interview with Tim Cook (apple CEO) earlier today but the previews showed him getting his panties in a bunch when asked about taxes. He's normally cool as a cucumber ... He needs to take some PR/composure lessons from waren buffet.
Its also nice to see that toyota made the 2015 list, even if some of that revenue is from the ISIS folks.
I suppose the knife makers should be ashamed about making money off ISIS when they use knives to behead people. I'm sure ISIS contacted Toyota directly and had those trucks shipped to Iraq.
Too bad Cook is a liberal hipster idiot.
and fudge packing goober gobbler
Skittle shitting Unicorns, Rainbows, and Leprechauns!
U.S.S.A. in the 21st Century. Foreward!
Facebook? wtf!
Yep, an extremely "productive" enterprise. Lots of value in Farcebook, 4 LOL.
Same thought here. Some numbers: $300 bil. of market cap and around $15 bil. in annual revenues. Nothing strange?
Whats with the random shading in of some companies? Crappy illustration.
Looks like a good deal of Bloat, Options Postdating, and Bond-Funded Stock Buybacks.
FB shouldn't be there.
This chart perfectly demonstrates why we have not advanced to a 100% nuclear (LFTR, et al.) power market. These same companies would rather throw away $500 Million on algae biofuel nonsense year after year than $250 Million to create a working prototype that would change the world or $1 Billion on an initial production model.
Keep punching different stawks to into the Dow to keep it going MOAR as long as possible.
