What are the biggest companies in the world? Try to answer this question with a
single metric (like sales) and you wind up with a lopsided list (one cluttered

-- to produce a composite measure of bigness. We also scorecard these companies
to produce Global High Performers, an elite list of fast-growing big companies
that set the pace for their respective industries.
