At least three $10 billion+ companies bought domain names last week.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a sales list from Sedo this full of big end users. I count at least three companies with market caps of over $10 billion that bought domain names through Sedo over the past week. There are also many other interesting end user buyers on the list.

The dollar figures aren’t jaw-dropping, but big companies including Guthy-Renker, L-3 Communications and Noble Energy show that the market for good, brandable names is active.

Here are some of the end user domain name purchases from the past week at Sedo:
