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 (-0,22%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+0,5%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+1,04%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-0,11%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (-0,09%) with $DTE (-0,44%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+0,06%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+0%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+0,28%), $CAJ (+0%) and $7731 (-0,84%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-0,31%) and $4091 (+1,98%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-0,2%) and $BAS (-0,06%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+0,29%) , $BMW (-0,1%) , $MBG (-0,36%) and $TM (+0,7%). But also $V (+0,11%), $AAPL (-0,09%) and $SMSD (+0,06%) 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).
