BP is the 4th largest company in the world. It's reach is well beyond gas stations. It's products include the raw materials involved in the production of other products. From energy i.e. gas, fuels, solar energy, wind farms: to aromatics and acetyls i.e raw materials that go into the bottles we drink, the clothes we wear, paint, painkillers and lipstick, the food we eat, the electronics we use, carpeting: etc asphalt products; industrial lubricants i.e. castrol products; arco aluminum etc. It is simply amazing. And a wee bit scary.
Reminds me of the bailout companies that were too big or their reach too global to be allowed to fail.
