What will be the first trillion dollar company? - Blu-ray Forum

It looks like Apple is the closest to being worth $1 trillion. So odds are they will be the first trillion-dollar company.

And we will also witness the first ever trillionaire probably around 10-15 years after that (meaning, in our lifetimes). Odd are, he will probably a white male, under 30, most likely from America.

It sounds like you have a problem with this.

Why does it look like it will be Apple? Alphabet is worth more than Apple is (not by much though).

For the record, there is nothing wrong with white males. (or white females)

Are you going by Market Cap? Or profits? revenue? net income?

Market Cap doesn't mean much, as that's just stock price x shares outstanding.

I know, I'm a bad person

Seriously, I think Alphabet could become that, if they are first in the race to level 4/5 self-driving cars.

My gut tells me Lockheed Martin is only the face of what the public is allowed to trade in. No proof of course, but in the US we subsidize certain billionaires for products with very little return. So it's not hard to imagine there are several trillion dollar programs hidden behind public fronts. Apple will most likely be the first to admit it, though.

Alphabet is diversified on what they do. They definitely have one of the best chances of pulling it off. Besides Elon Musk they seem to be some of the biggest innovators out there right now.
