@clacke @Quinnypig Unlike personal net worth that can and is converted into cash from shares individuals hold themselves, companies net worth is only a potential value based on the shares spread between all the stockholders. As such this value can greatly fluctuate without really affecting any single entity, which tells me it's mostly meaningless.
I wouldn't have expected this outcome but it isn't entirely surprising to me, all it takes is just a downward hum for Amazon (1.5 million employees) share price and an upward hum for nVidia (26,000 employees) share price, without any regard to pretty much anything tangible since it's all potential anyway.
