   I somehow missed the news that Nvidia joined the list of trillion dollar companies last year.

   It is now the most "valuable" company in the world by market capitalization.

   Crazy times.

     9 - Berkshire Hathaway. A company that does nothing but buy shares in other companies.

     8 - Tesla, a company that makes wildly unsafe electric cars, and who's current owner fought a court case to be able to say he was a "founder" because narcissists have needs.

     7 - A company that actually makes stuff!

     6 - Facebook. A company that has only caused harm in the world, including undermining democracy, supporting genocide and other human rights violations.
