Caterpillar


"Caterpillar's reputation for making a difference in the world is something we are proud of as a company—and as individuals. Whether it's caring for the safety of our fellow employees, improving the communities in which we live and work, or sustaining the environment we all share, Caterpillar people are fully committed to and engaged in good corporate citizenship. We are doing well by 'doing good' all around the world." - Jim Owens, Chairman & CEO

Yes but why?

Makes large range of construction, agricultural, and forestry equipment, medium speed engines. Also Caterpillar is expecting sales agreement with the Indian Mittal steel company.


Microsoft



The company said the plan for the one-time payout depends on shareholder approval of adjustments in employee stock plans to compensate them for the fact that a company's share price declines immediately after such a large one-time payout.

Microsoft is also busy with its new software program Windows Vista 2007 and Office 2007.

Chosen for low risk but still could be surprising because of the new Origami Project which has been shown in the Cebit (the world's largest computer and information technology fair in Hannover/Germany)


Bayer AG
