Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Saudi Aramco — The entry states a share price and market capitalization for November 2025, which is a future date relative to the entry's stated 'As of 2024' timeframe, making the data speculative and factually incorrect.

Sinopec — The entry states Sinopec is 'the sixth highest revenue company globally,' but as of the most recent Fortune Global 500 rankings (2024), Sinopec ranked 5th by revenue.

Sinopec — The entry says Sinopec 'reported a loss of 23 billion yuan in the first half of 2020.' According to Sinopec's official financial reports, the net loss attributable to shareholders for H1 2020 was approximately 21.7 billion yuan.

Standard Oil — The claim that the Lake Shore Railroad gave Rockefeller's firm a 71% discount in 1868 is incorrect; the actual discount was a 71-cent per barrel rebate on the posted rate, not a 71% discount.

Standard Oil — The claim that the original trust was valued at $70 million is inaccurate; the Standard Oil Trust was initially capitalized at $70 million in stock, but the $70 million figure refers to the capitalization, not a valuation of the trust's assets.

Tesla, Inc. — The entry states the Model 3 received 'over 325,000 reservations within a week,' but the widely reported figure is exactly 325,000 reservations as of April 7, 2016, not 'over.'

Yahoo — The entry describes a large-scale malware attack as 'discovered in January 2014 that targeted Java and affected 300,000 users per hour,' but this conflates separate incidents: the actual 2013-2014 malware attack involved a malicious ad campaign affecting about

SoftBank Group — SoftBank's stake in Alibaba did not peak at $60 billion at Alibaba's IPO in September 2014; its value later rose to over $100 billion, so the claim that it peaked at that time is inaccurate.

Toshiba — The claim that Toshiba invented NAND flash memory in 1987 is incorrect; it was invented by Toshiba engineer Fujio Masuoka in 1984.
