The Fortune 500 is here. These are the top 10 companies

Fortune released its 70th annual ranking of the largest U.S. companies on Tuesday. The Fortune 500 list is made up of 500 companies that together represent two-thirds of the U.S. GDP — with $18.8 trillion in revenues, $1.7 trillion in profits, and $43 trillion in market value as of March. Combined, the firms employ 31 million people around the world.

These are the top 10 companies on this year’s Fortune 500 list, ranked by total revenues during the last fiscal year.
