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 (+2,03 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-5,82 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+2,39 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-1,02 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (-0,09 %) with $DTE (-1,12 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+2,18 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (-4,22 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-1,24 %), $CAJ (+0 %) and $7731 (+1,91 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-1,27 %) and $4091 (+0,04 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-2,21 %) and $BAS (-0,69 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-0,99 %) , $BMW (-0,1 %) , $MBG (-1,67 %) and $TM (-1,08 %). But also $V (-0,34 %), $AAPL (-0,09 %) and $SMSD (+1,39 %) 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).
