the world market share of the top five companies in each industry amounted to almost seventy percent for consumer durables and fifty percent for automotive, airline, aerospace, electrical, electronic and steel industries. During this time world economic output traded between countries rose from around nine percent in 1965 to nineteen percent in 1992.
