When it comes to elevators, you either know Schindler $SCHN (+0.85%) from der🇨🇭, Kone $KNEBV (-0.25%) from 🇫🇮 or Thyssen Krupp $TKA (-4.63%) from 🇩🇪.
But the market leader is Otis from 🇺🇸 and in fact most of the apartment buildings that have been built recently in my city have an Otis elevator. The difference to the others, the Otis elevators have a fancy display with weather forecast and news ticker. If I hadn't invested here, I probably would never have noticed which manufacturer the elevator is from.
