Get the largest consumer company listed after 1998

You can filter your data by even more conditions by enclosing each condition in parentheses and using logical operators like & and |.

Here, you will find out which company is the largest consumer services company that went public after Amazon did in 1997. The data is contained in the column 'IPO Year'; an Initial Public Offering (IPO) is a financial term that describes the first time that the stock of a private company is offered to the public.

DataReader, date, pandas as pd, and matplotlib.pyplot as plt have been imported. The listings DataFrame from the last exercise is also available.
