The top brands in the world today are all technology brands. The top four being all technology companies according to a report by MillwardBrown. These four brands are Apple, IBM, Google, and Microsoft. However, this is not something surprising, but what makes it an interesting news is the fact that the total wealth of these four brands make up half-trillion dollars. Apple alone has a value of $183 billion, which makes $500 for each iOS devices sold till today.

After Apple comes IBM which has a value of $115 billion, followed by Google at $108 billion. Microsoft is at $77 billion and comes after McDonald’s. It also indicates a simple fact that aside from the gadgets made by these technology companies, people like junk food and they apparently like it more than they do Microsoft. Also technology companies are faring far ahead in the game of being rich, with the next four non-technology brands having between them only $300 billion.

The technology products, like iPhones, computers, and software products have become almost revered and most-sought after things today with fan-following and eagerness to know the latest updates about them. Just by the interpretation of the data in the report, people have also lessened on their reading habits as Amazon had a 9% decline for the first time and now is worth $34 billion. Also the stocks positioning of these companies would be a better investment for those interested in their wealth and business reports.
