Facts [including fun ones] about the Three Largest US companies by market capitalization.

As of February 27 the three largest US-headquartered companies by stock market capitalization (value of their stock price x all common shares) are: Apple ($911B), Alphabet ($783B), Amazon ($731B). So I decided to do some facts including fun ones:

• All three corporate name starts with the first letter "A"

• Ages 42 (Apple: b.1976), 24 (Amazon: b.1994), 20 (Alphabet: b.1976)

• All three in one way or other are part of the FANG or FAANGs acronym which stands for Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, Google.

• All three are Technology companies.

• Apple is the biggest in terms of revenue [$229B], followed by Amazon [$177B], and last but not the least is Alphabet [$110B]

• Apple is the richest in terms of cash and cash equivalents [$261B], followed by Alphabet [$105B], and last but not the least is Amazon [$24B]

• Two are based in California, and the other One in Washington state (sorry I am no US citizen or resident)

• Here is their sphere of includes combined together: Ads, Consumer Electronics, Cloud computing, Hardware, Retail, Search, Studios Entertainment, Web Browser etc.

• Apple is famous for the iPhone, Macs, and iPad brands; Alphabet is famous for being the owner of Google, and many other bets or moonshoots in various industries; and Amazon is famous for dominating e-commerce and cloud computing.

I hope you all like. Thanks for reading.

Note: I forgot to add that each company logos have some interest fact or meaning; Apple name and logo is due to co-founder Steve Jobs love for apple fruit; Amazon name and logo is due to founder Jeff Bezos wanting his company (then a store) to be the largest on earth just like it namesake river the Amazon river in South America is the largest river on earth and that smiling point from A to Z is to show they sell/do everything; and Alphabet name and logo is well I don't know. Nonetheless all three companies all want their names to be at the very top of everything- which seems to be happening now 😀
