- fauigerzigerk 7y agoNo, that's not a valid comparison. Market cap and GDP are completely different measures. The US GDP is ~$21 trillion, but that's not its market cap, it's just one year's worth of production. You can't buy the USA for $21 trillion.
- MagnumOpus 7y agoRevenue is more comparable to GDP - it being a flow metric. On that measure Apple's $260bn puts it around #44.
