I’m having a hard time buying this list. It may have been somewhat accurate thirty years ago, and the named corporations have little to do with the family name since they are controlled by boards and shareholders. Also, Apple is bigger than any of them. Google could eat any of them for lunch, and Jeff Bezos could buy any of them with a personal check.

JP Morgan Chase is 2.534 trillion USD. No, Bezos could not buy them with a personal check.

A lot of people deify some of the tech guys and they do wield some outsized power. But they are not at the point of dictating terms to the old world banking oligarchy.

“Apple is bigger than any of them. “

Apple just became a trillion dollar company. They do not compare to the assets of the banking giants either.
Don’t kid yourself.
