The Big WINNERS

Google posted the biggest single-year percentage gain of
any company in the rankings’ five-year history. Growth at eBay,
the top dog of 2005, slowed from last year.

The Big LOSERS

Practically every industry had a loser  this year. Gap slipped
12 places in the rankings, and beleaguered Ford made its
fifth appearance on this list, falling eight places.
