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 (-2,41%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-2,41%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-2,77%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-1,83%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (-0,45%) with $DTE (+0,27%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+1,29%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+0,99%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+7,43%), $CAJ (+0%) and $7731 (-0,63%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-0,31%) and $4091 (+0,12%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+3,44%) and $BAS (+0,46%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+1,9%) , $BMW (+2,73%) , $MBG (+2,48%) and $TM (+1,09%). But also $V (-1,75%), $AAPL (-0,45%) and $SMSD (+8,03%) 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).
