It is a billion dollar company, just because it is not US based, we should know it's name.

- untog 11y agoRight, but we don't. If you took a poll right now I'd bet the vast majority of HN does not know its name. So IMO Bloomberg are absolutely right to not use the name in a headline - they do use the name in the article, which makes total sense.
- dopamean 11y agoThere are a lot of billion dollar companies. We should know all of their names?
- desireco42 11y agoI am really sorry for you guys, seems you are proud of your ignorance. It is business news, they are an important business in a biggest market in the world. What would you want me to say. You don't have to recognize it's name, but I think it is important to know if you are interested in business. You don't have to know who Warren Buffet is, but it is kind of person whose name you should know if you are interested in business and investing. It is just off-hand comment you took maybe too seriously.
- icebraining 11y agoThere are 1922 publicly traded companies and a few hundred private companies in the world with sales of $1 billion or more. Do you know them all by name?
