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 (-2,02%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-1,82%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-1,05%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (+0,48%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (-1,16%) with $DTE (-4,63%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (-0,66%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+0,58%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+1,75%), $CAJ (+0%) and $7731 (-1,05%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-0,58%) and $4091 (-0,35%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-0,8%) and $BAS (-0,27%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-0,38%) , $BMW (-1,23%) , $MBG (-1,21%) and $TM (-0,16%). But also $V (-0,23%), $AAPL (-1,16%) and $SMSD (-0,18%) 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).
