Companies traded on the stock exchange in everyday professional life
Since I am @Simpson nominated, I now grant an insight into listed companies in my daily professional life.
Briefly about me: I am a mathematician and work in the semiconductor industry in a listed company.
Starting with the software: pretty much all computers in the office run Windows and Office from $MSFT (+0,63 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-0,92 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-0,21 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (+0,2 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+1,23 %) with $DTE (-1,36 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+0,8 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+2,26 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-0,02 %), $CAJ (+0 %) and $7731 (+1,09 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-0,62 %) and $4091 (+3,5 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+1,17 %) and $BAS (-0,06 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+0,96 %) , $BMW (+0,67 %) , $MBG (+0,47 %) and $TM (+0,71 %). But also $V (+0,08 %), $AAPL (+1,23 %) and $SMSD (+0 %) are customers.
I have certainly forgotten a lot, but as an insight it should be enough I think.
I nominate @DonkeyInvestor , @GoDividend and @Divmann (sorry if someone has already been nominated, I don't have an overview anymore).
