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 (-0,36 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+0 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-3,07 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-0,62 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,14 %) with $DTE (+1,15 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+1,75 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (-1,94 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-1,45 %), $CAJ (+0 %) and $7731 (+4,95 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+0,39 %) and $4091 (+0,59 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+0,03 %) and $BAS (+0,49 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-2,5 %) , $BMW (-2,33 %) , $MBG (-1,44 %) and $TM (-1,79 %). But also $V (+0,07 %), $AAPL (+0,14 %) and $SMSD (-1,87 %) 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).
