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 (+0,1 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+0,93 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+1,48 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (+0,07 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,02 %) with $DTE (+0,7 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (-0,03 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (-1,11 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+0,07 %), $CAJ (-2 %) and $7731 (+1,5 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-0,18 %) and $4091 (+0,41 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+1,66 %) and $BAS (+2,5 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+3,75 %) , $BMW (+4,84 %) , $MBG (+4,17 %) and $TM (+2,38 %). But also $V (+0,79 %), $AAPL (+0,02 %) and $SMSD (-0,82 %) 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).
