Top 10 Most Valuable Private Companies by DrMB(op): 9:21am On Feb 04
πŸ’° $1.25 Trillion. $500 Billion. $350 Billion. Notice a pattern? 4 of the top 6 most valuable private companies in the world are now dominated by Aerospace and Artificial Intelligence. Are we witnessing the end of traditional "Software as a Service" dominance? πŸ€–
Tell me in the comments: If you could own shares in just ONE of these today, which would you pick? πŸ‘‡

They mean companies not on the stock market or publicly traded.

Not sure they are fully correct though regarding the list.

NOTE: I was wondering why Aramco was not on the list only to find out a small % of their shares are now publicly available. The list is probably correct then.

Private companies are companies that their stocks are not traded publicly. It doesn’t mean it’s govt owned.

Dr MB,
although, you have your Opinions here,but I disagree,
So why don't you make it 25-Globally Competitive Companies,with their Capital and Share Market ‼️.
Those Chinese Companies you listed there are FALSE because China doesn't have Market to tell us the True Pictures of things.
See how Hong Kong becomes a Shadow of itself,after Britain handed it over to China.
The BEST Competitors Market, with Global 🌎 Outlook can only be found in the Western World,India Inclusive.

So canvas is more valuable than Microsoft or Dangote Refinery?
Re: Top 10 Most Valuable Private Companies by GreatrAnalyst: 2:33pm On Feb 04
Partially true.
But in about a year time, the list will likely be reshuffled, by even newer AI companies.
It is a big surprise that even Alphabet isn't in the first 10 again, let alone Apple, which was the first company to cross 1 Trillion dollars back then.

28 dangotes equals 1 Elon musk

Re: Top 10 Most Valuable Private Companies by motayoayinde: 2:35pm On Feb 04
Lies!
Trumped up numbers to promote Musk.
This is what they've done for decades, promoting their pedo-Mossad assets.
This is how America ended up with a complete Epstein Island elite class from Presidency to ministers and heads of govt. agencies.
Re: Top 10 Most Valuable Private Companies by SpaceX: 2:36pm On Feb 04
All US company but we keep deceiving ourselves like we are up to their level, they own the future while we keep playing with wickedness and greed.

They're PLCs, not privately owned
Re: Top 10 Most Valuable Private Companies by iichidodo: 2:38pm On Feb 04
neither, would rather invest in penny stocks of pioneer companies holding patents of next gen technologies, like nuclear fusion, asteroid mining, quantum computing etc...

Howmuch are their shares

I'm buying as much as possible
Re: Top 10 Most Valuable Private Companies by CaseSensitive(m): 2:45pm On Feb 04
Realistically not possible but my investment would be in Biren Technology equity. None of those "Top 10".
