The Absolute Best

Just to follow up my earlier rant on the Zeitgeist and what real wealth creation is all about, let me share with you here a list of companies who I have come to greatly admire. These companies exhibit impressive technology leadership, expert management, and a focus on the long-term. These companies do NOT seem to me to be at all worried about short-term profits. Rather, they seem completely focused on solving problems, and creating products and services which will benefit their customers and society as a whole.

In no order of preference:

Genentech
Apple
Monsanto
Google
Nucor
Hewlett Packard
First Solar
Bloomberg
Fedex
Agilent
Southwest Airlines
Cisco Systems
Intel
Deere
Harley Davidson
Leapfrog Enterprises
Amazon
