Gorilla

What does it Mean? A company that dominates an industry without having a complete monopoly.
Investopedia Says... This term is a reference to the old jokes about the 800-pound gorillas, who "does whatever it wants." For example, you'll hear people say  that Microsoft is an 800-pound gorilla.
