FOR THE FOURTH YEAR RUNNING, Dow Chemical and BASF are the leading two companies in C&EN's survey of the global Top 50 chemical companies . And for the fourth year running, in what has become a good-natured but intense rivalry, Dow leads BASF, although the two companies' chemical sales differ by less than 2%.No surprises there. And no surprises, either, in the presence of the chemical businesses of oil giants Royal Dutch Shell, ExxonMobil, China Petroleum & Chemical Corp. (Sinopec), and Total in the top 10. A surprise did come in, though, with the dramatic entry into the top five of Ineos Group, which has been cobbled together by a string of major acquisitions. |

Honda Motor Co. said Wednesday it was on track for record annual profits, reversing an earlier warning of an earnings drop, after a strong first-quarter performance driven by brisk overseas sales.
Honda, Japan's second-largest automaker, said net profit rose 15.8 percent in the three months to June as a weaker yen gave a boost to its foreign earnings, helping to offset a slump in domestic vehicle sales. |
