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 (+0,26%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-0,16%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-1,6%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-1,3%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (-0,25%) with $DTE (+2,86%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+0,02%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (-0,12%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+0,18%), $CAJ and $7731 (-1,99%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-0,12%) and $4091 (-0,36%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+0,72%) and $BAS (+1,28%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-0,19%) , $BMW (-1,36%) , $MBG (-2,44%) and $TM (+0%). But also $V (+0,18%), $AAPL (-0,25%) and $SMSD (+4%) 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).
