Who is the best company in the world?

Best in terms of what?

Most profitable is Exxon Mobil. Made better than 40 billion last year.

Highest return on equity. Even I find this hard to beleive. North European Royalty Trust 47,000%

Highest return on assets. Prudhoe Bay Royalty Trust 1190%

Perhaps some other criteria might come to mind. I believe JNJ has increased their earnings more consistantly than just about any other company. 40 years of earnings growth I believe if I am not mistaken.

GE is the only company still in the Dow Jones Industrial average that was there when the average was first conceived. That has got to be worth something.

If I had to pick one company though I guess I would have to skip those and go with Toyota--TM. Here is a company that started out in the 60s, scratching at the U S auto market and now 40 years later has totally destroyed the entrenched domestic competition. Not only that but they have by all accounts superior quality products, superior inovation, superior manufacting methodologies. I am not sure that I agree completely with those perceptions, but sure as heck most consumer of automobiles do. Personally, I a dyed in the wool Ford biget.

I can not really say if they are the best company in the world, but they surely must be up there near the top of the list somewhere.

If you want to consider a company that might be aiding the environment in the best category, you might want to consider Vesta Wind Systems, a Danish company that is the world leading manufacturer of Wind Turbines used to generate electricity.

If you want to consider a company that is the best at moving goods and people, you might consider one of the railroads. 7x more efficient than cars and trucks. 30x more efficient than airplanes.

If you mean in terms of the biggest company, the biggest corporation is Wal-Mart.

The best company in the world would be different to different people,it all depends what one is looking for.First determine what you are looking for in this best company in the world than look for one and you will find it for sure,there is plenty of them

Please post an intelligent question. This makes no sense.

The World's Best Big Companies

The Forbes A-List is our ranking of the finest large corporations in the world. We are not just measuring stock prices or profits, but, rather, the ability of a company to expand its sales and income, earning good profits that reward shareholders over the long haul.

To qualify for the list, a company has to be big: It must have annual sales of $5 billion or a stock market value of $5 billion. Of the companies that pass those requirements, we look at five-year sales, profit and return on capital data, as well as recent stock market performance and analysts' earning estimates. After that, Forbes Global editors pick among the highest-ranked companies, weeding out those that have minuscule stock market floats or whose good performance on the screens is the result of statistical flukes.
