Sony is a very small fish when compared to Microsoft. Most of Sony’s businesses are falling, these days the PlayStation brand is their biggest earner, I expect the mobile division to go under next.
You've no idea what you're talking about.
In terms of market cap, one measurement. Yes MSFT is bigger than Sony.
However that is over-simplistic, Sony is based in Japan which just came out of a 20 year recession which depressed company values there and were at the same time at a currecy disadvantage.
Sony has a very comparable amount of assets to MSFT, Sony also has much much less debt. While MSFT has something around 150 billion debt.
Sony is a conglomerate, consisting of many diverse businesses... this often results in what is called a conglomerate discount, which actually values a company as less than it should be.
For instance Sony owns the biggest music company in the world, with the biggest back catalog of music licenses.... this business alone is valued at over 60 billion dollars, probably much more now as that valuation was done a while ago.
Sony Pictures is also valued at over 30 billion alone, so add those two and you are already approaching 100 billion and you have not even touched PlayStation, Banking, Imaging & sensor technology and consumer electronics.
Their cash is being stockpiled right now, they have over 40 billion, which is up 60% from just a quarter or two ago.
So why are you trying to perpetuate this idea that Sony is a failing business? Especially when they could buy a business like ViacomCBS or MGM or a multitude of others if they so desired.... They just bought Crunchyroll for 1.2 Billion.
