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 (+0,38 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-0,25 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-0,36 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (+2,73 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,45 %) with $DTE (-0,02 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+0,7 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+3,59 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+1,84 %), $CAJ (+0 %) and $7731 (-0,01 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+0,05 %) and $4091 (+1,01 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-0,26 %) and $BAS (-0,18 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-0,12 %) , $BMW (+0,68 %) , $MBG (+0,56 %) and $TM (+1,91 %). But also $V (+1,43 %), $AAPL (+0,45 %) and $SMSD (+0,5 %) 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).
