The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Sector & Industry
The market segment to which a company belongs, as determined by S&P Capital IQ. S&P Capital IQ uses the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS)SM, an industry classification system developed by S&P Capital IQ in collaboration with Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI).

GICS is currently comprised of:

11 Sectors. See definitions of each sector
69 Industries. See definitions of each sector

A company is assigned to a single GICS sub-industry according to the definition of its principal business activity as determined by S&P Capital IQ and MSCI. Revenues are a significant factor in defining principal business activity; however, earnings analysis and market perception are also important criteria for classification.

GICS was developed in response to the financial community's need for one complete, consistent set of global sector and industry definitions. The GICS standard can be applied to companies globally, in both developed and developing markets, and currently comprises a universe of over 40,000 companies worldwide.

S&P Capital IQ has assigned each company in the stock search database to one of 11 sectors.
