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 (-0,39 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-0,45 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-0,48 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-1,2 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (-0,72 %) with $DTE (-0,66 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+2,13 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (-0,55 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-2,04 %), $CAJ (+0 %) and $7731 (-0,86 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-0,63 %) and $4091 (+0,06 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-0,39 %) and $BAS (-1,46 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-1,47 %) , $BMW (-0,72 %) , $MBG (-1,3 %) and $TM (-0,67 %). But also $V (-0,8 %), $AAPL (-0,72 %) and $SMSD (+1,3 %) 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).
