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 (+1,85 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-0,56 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+1,82 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-1,15 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,57 %) with $DTE (-0,1 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+2,6 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+5,44 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-2,36 %), $CAJ (+0,39 %) and $7731 (+1,23 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-0,37 %) and $4091 (+1,33 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+1,01 %) and $BAS (+0,54 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+7,59 %) , $BMW (+2,21 %) , $MBG (+1,53 %) and $TM (-0,58 %). But also $V (-0,18 %), $AAPL (+0,57 %) and $SMSD (-1,77 %) 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).
