There is only I.B.M. and ITT and AT&T and DuPont, Dow, Union Carbide and Exxon.

Let's see AT&T has been broken into smaller and smaller pieces with the remnant in real trouble. IBM has survived but it no longer comes close to dominating computers like it did in the 60's and 70's. ITT has been a mess with no direction with most of it's divisions sold off many years ago. The other four have had good years, but they've also had bad. None of them come even close to running the world.
