You just can't possibly predict the future in this business. In the 90s Apple was at the edge of bankruptcy, they were in worse shape than Sony is today. And now look at them, they are only topped by some oil companies but they have a ashitload of money in the bank no doubt and could buy out almost every company on the planet, if they really wanted to. Won't happen, because the law has something to say too. It's called Kartellamt here in germany, I'm pretty sure there's some kind of counterpart in the US.
Anyway, it would need an absolute epic turnaround, but it isn't impossible. Just think about what happens if a new iphone bombs. That would hurt Apple really really bad and would lower their worth over night significantly. Samsung on the other hand has the same advantage as Sony themselves. They are in hundreds of markets, so if something doesn't do that well, they still can rely on their other businesses. It still isn't entirely impossible for them to be taken over some time in the future.
It may seem unlikely at the moment, but you never know what the future brings. Just never say never. Besides that, kudos to Sony, you should always aim for high targets. Even if you don't reach them, if you set the bar too low, you will never be on top.
