CA has a lot of companies that were minted fairly recently. Zoom is the most recent one on that list, right? That's just a decade old and Square isn't much older. Are any of these companies outside of California founded within the 21st century or even the 90s?

i always confused why market capitalization defines the size of a corporation. it measures how many stocks have not been bought. shouldnt the number of sold stocks be more important.
yeah, according to the wiki, it only counts outstanding shares:
Quote:
Market capitalization is equal to the share price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding.[2][3] Since outstanding stock is bought and sold in public markets, capitalization could be used as an indicator of public opinion of a company's net worth and is a determining factor in some forms of stock valuation.
i am not a stock broker so i am probably missing something elementary.
I don't see them listed but McDonald's should probably be on here with a market cap of roughly $175B.
