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 (-0,6 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+1,39 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+1,39 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (+17,23 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+1,66 %) with $DTE (+1,34 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+3,49 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+4,19 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+4,62 %), $CAJ (+0 %) and $7731 (+0,09 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+0,12 %) and $4091 (+2,63 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+3,65 %) and $BAS (+1,04 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+0,03 %) , $BMW (+0,12 %) , $MBG (+1 %) and $TM (+3,23 %). But also $V (-1,6 %), $AAPL (+1,66 %) and $SMSD (+5,14 %) 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).
