Apple Has More Cash On Hand Than All These Countries

As such, companies have spent much of the economic recovery building up their balance sheets with mountains of cash.

"Amid a world of uncertainty, one thing is without question: Most U.S. corporations have plenty of capital at their disposal," said U.S. Trust's Joseph Quinlan. "Indeed, capital is in abundance among America's largest nonfinancial companies, with Moody's noting that U.S. firms were sitting on some $1.6 trillion in cash at the end of 2013, a 12% increase from a year ago. The latest figure is nearly double the level of 2008, signaling the extent by which U.S. firms have built out their cash positions over the post-crisis period."

Indeed, the cash piles of some of the biggest corporations rivals those of some of the major economies around the world.

"Putting that number into perspective, the cash hoard of corporate America (e.g., financials) is greater than the total international reserves of Japan, the second-wealthiest nation in the world, with foreign exchange reserves of $1.2 trillion," said Quinlan. "Only China has more cash in the safe-almost $4 trillion."

"As Moody details, the combined cash of Apple, Microsoft, Google, Verizon Communications and Pfizer climbed to $404 billion at the end of last year," he continued. "That figure is up over read more

Qualcomm Introduces 802.11ac Wi-Fi with Multi-user MIMO to Triple Network and Device Performance and Efficiency

MU-MIMO is a revolutionary new way for Wi-Fi networks to operate. With standard Wi-Fi, clients are served sequentially; during this time, only one device is sending and receiving information, thus only a small portion of network capacity is being used. The accumulation of these sequential events creates a drop in throughput and capacity as more devices join the network. This situation can be further exacerbated when combined with the growing amount of on-demand high resolution video content. MU-MIMO enables simultaneous transmission to groups of clients, making more efficient use of available Wi-Fi network capacity and speeding up transmissions. “Great connectivity is not just about increasing the absolute speed. It’s about making better use of network and airtime efficiency to support the growing number of connected devices, services and applications,” said Dan Rabinovitsj, senior vice president, Qualcomm Atheros, Inc. “After seven years of MU-MIMO development and testing, we’ve gain...
