Magazine Fortune presented another list of the 50 most amazing companies (World's Most Admired Companies). And if the first two places in the list remained unchanged, then in general it is quite noticeably different from last year's edition.
First place for the fifth year in a row Apple, followed by Google, which manages to hold the second position for three years. Came in third place Amazon, which last year ranked 7th. The top ten of the list looks like this:
1. Apple
2. Google
3. Amazon
4. Coca-Cola
5. IBM
6. FedEx
7. Berkshire Hathaway (investment, insurance, financial services)
8. Starbucks
9. Procter & Gamble
10. Southwest Airlines
Interestingly, after the death of Steve Jobs, the future Apple everyone seemed to be in doubt. Many analysts and journalists were sure that the glory days of the company were already behind and now only recession awaits it. The latest results of trading on the stock exchange completely refuted such opinions.
