The on-line magazine Good has published an infographic looking at the most valuable companies in the world. What makes it interesting is that the sales of the company (for example, Wal Mart with $408.2 billion) is compared to the Gross Domestic Product of some countries (for example, Sweden at $397.7 billion). That would mean that if Wal Mart was a country (you mean it isn’t?) it would rank 22nd in the world.
These days, big business is getting really big. Here is a look at the 10 companies with the biggest current market value—and a comparison of their last 12 months of sales to the 10 countries with the most similar gross domestic products last year.
