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 (+2,91%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+4,62%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+2,78%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-0,84%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (-1,51%) with $DTE (-6,11%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (-1,84%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+5,34%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+0,9%), $CAJ (+0%) and $7731 (+0,51%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+1,11%) and $4091 (-0,41%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-1,15%) and $BAS (+0,23%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-1,21%) , $BMW (+0,43%) , $MBG (+0,8%) and $TM (-0,56%). But also $V (+1,18%), $AAPL (-1,51%) and $SMSD (+1,13%) 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).
