cw,

I believe QCOM is young as far as time lapsed since it was declared a gorilla, but I'm not sure if any of the other Gorillas were called 'young' after they reached $100 billion in market capitalization.

I don't understand the relevance of that. Qualcomm is called a young Gorilla because, using my interpretation, the tornado for its product didn't form until less than two years ago and because the company didn't become a Gorilla until less than a year ago. Would you not have called Bill Gates a young CEO at age 30 just because he was already worth billions of dollars?
