an interesting, yet somewhat unrelated thing that came through this article was the market cap's graph of some big names like Microsoft, Amazon,Oracle, VMware and Red Hat.
(https://a16zpeter.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/peterlevine1.p...) it mentions in 2014, their Market cap was:
- Microsoft: ~$300B
- Amazon: ~$160B
- Oracle: $160B
- VMware: $40B
- Red Hat: $10B I'm not sure how true this was back in 2014, but the current market cap 4 years later for these companies is as follows: - Microsoft: ~$833B (177% increase)
- Amazon: ~$803B (400%)
- Oracle: $181B (13%)
- VMware: $60B (50%)
- Red Hat: $30B (200%) it's incredible to see in the same period of time just how massive both Microsoft and Amazon have been able to perform (market wise at least) and specifically the hockey stick market cap of Amazon in that time frame... |
