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 (-3,34 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-1,08 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-0,54 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-1,65 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,72 %) with $DTE (+1,5 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+0,19 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (-2,18 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+0,9 %), $CAJ and $7731 (+0,07 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-0,3 %) and $4091 (-1,24 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-0,22 %) and $BAS (+0,71 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-2,2 %) , $BMW (-2,81 %) , $MBG (-1,5 %) and $TM (-0,99 %). But also $V (-4,24 %), $AAPL (+0,72 %) 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).
