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 (+3,04 %). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+3,27 %) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+4,62 %). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (+1,47 %) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+2,9 %) with $DTE (+2,02 %) contract (and that although next door $VOD (-2,42 %) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+6,94 %).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+4,22 %), $CAJ (+1,92 %) and $7731 (+0,97 %). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+0,48 %) and $4091 (-1,54 %). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+2,57 %) and $BAS (+1,61 %).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+2,78 %) , $BMW (+1,88 %) , $MBG (+3,56 %) and $TM (+4,78 %). But also $V (+1,21 %), $AAPL (+2,9 %) and $SMSD (+1,86 %) 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).
