Google is now the fastest company in history to a trillion dollar market cap unseating Amazon.
Google is now a trillion dollar company and did it in 7,804 days. Amazon had done it in 8,827 days.
Apple and Microsoft are both over 2 times older than Google. So not really competitive on how fast.
Facebook is most likely to be the one to do it next. If they do it in the next 5 years they will break the Google record as the fastest.
Guess some think Tesla will be next. But I really do not think so.
If had to give a name today it would be Alibaba followed by Facebook....

PSA: Samsung will not fix Samsung products bought in a different country
I found this out the hard way when I took two seperate devices (Galaxy s8+ and Galaxy buds) into the Samsung store due to independent issues, in Australia. They refused to even look at both due to being international models. The buds being from New Zealand, unsure on the phone.
