Samsung will buy Sony but not before sony begs them to do it. The humilation that sony sells samsung tv's in their stores is pleasant.

Was this really necessary?

For Samsung it is.  Even many Japanese are happy that the horrible company called sony now is crawling on their knees and have to ask stores to sell their products.

I really don't know what to say any more.

Actually, Exxon Mobil has replaced Apple as the world's most valued company. Also, according to this article, Petro China could be bigger than both of them! 

http://www.aljazeera.com/news/americas/2013/01/2013125185850853738.html

And this article explains why Apple may never be the most valuable company ever again

http://readwrite.com/2013/03/07/apple-may-never-regain-its-status-as-the-worlds-most-valuable-company

You really believe that?


It is not 1 million difference.. it is 200 billion dollars difference.

And about this tall...

"Apple may never be the most valuable company ever again"

Well today or tomorrow Apple will became again the World Most Valuable Company lol lol lol if you look the stocks you will see the the Exxon is DOWN and Apple is UP in the latest days... if Apple up only 0.10% (or Exxon down 0.10%) then the top spot changes again in Apple favor.

EPIC!

Please do continue

Ofcourse it is more easy to report an user than to have a discussion with them very sad bro but expected, don't forgot the icesave dispute.

For some people in Japan, Sony is already dead. The only question they have is how did Sony die, or who killed it, and how long will the spectre of Sony remain haunting Japan. It’s a pessimistic view of the company but it’s one reality in this island country.

Riiiiight. I don't believe the quote. Nobody is that stupid that they would say such a thing. Well... nobody who is allowed to move about the community freely anyway.


This! Seriously. We need a video or some kind of source that verifies it. I don't believe it for a second.

Who needs real journalism when you can pull articles out of your ass and get way more hits from the idiots at n4g and vgchartz

I think its fair to say they're on their way down though, its only a matter of time.  Its just a natural transition companies make.  If the next iPhone isn't a big improvement the shares will drop quickly.

It's not publicly traded but still...

Saudi Aramco's value has been estimated at up to 10 trillion US$ in the Financial Times, making it the world's most valuable company.[6][7][8]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saudi_Aramco


That company was state owned and operated until the late 1980's when it was given private ownership and now it's state owned once again.  However, its last real valuation was in 2006 which pegged it at $781 billion.  $10 trillion is simply impossible.  You could only get a figure like that if you were to try to give a dollar figure for all their oil/natural gas assets which likely could be valued that much but that doesn't take into consideration that you can't extract all of it at once (if you even could over time).  It does about $300 billion per year in revenue. You just can't have a market cap 30 times the size of your revenue.

$1 trillion?  OK, I can see that.  $10 trillion?  Forbes must have been on something.   It's no wonder that article has stayed behind the subscription barrior.

Sony officials saying stuff like that on grounds of nothing is hard to imagine. The only way I think this can happen is if the japanese government sends Sony in secret a container with 500 Billion Dollars in it.
