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 (-0,49 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-4,52 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-1,83 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-2,02 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (-0,08 %) with $DTE (+0,53 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+0,96 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (-1,66 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-1,54 %), $CAJ (+0,4 %) and $7731 (-0,25 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-1,2 %) and $4091 (-1,8 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+0,58 %) and $BAS (+1,39 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+0,71 %) , $BMW (+0,9 %) , $MBG (+0,57 %) and $TM (+0,46 %). But also $V (-0,21 %), $AAPL (-0,08 %) and $SMSD (+1,53 %) 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).
