世纪的最后20年，美国大企业的发展主要是对城市市场崛起的回应--城市市场的崛起又是铁路网不断扩张的结果。然后，随着新的世纪的开始，对大企业发展的主导影响变成了技术。一体化、联合、多样化和管理的明显模式影响了大公司和寡头垄断行业的崛起，也受到了它们的影响。价格竞争让位于其他武器，经济调整为年轻的巨头腾出空间。
The growth of big business in America in the last two decades of the nineteenth century was primarily a response to the rise of urban markets — a result, in turn, of the spreading railroad network. Then, as a new century began to unfold, the dominant influence upon big business development came to be technological. Discernible patterns of integration, combination, diversification, and administration influenced and were influenced by the rise of huge companies and oligopolistic industries. Price competition yielded to other weapons, and the economy adjusted to make room for the young giants in its midst.
