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 (-0,52%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+0,76%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+2,38%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (+0,36%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,35%) with $DTE (+0,99%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+0,65%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+1,96%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+3,82%), $CAJ (+0%) and $7731 (+1,22%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+0,18%) and $4091 (+1,29%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+3,47%) and $BAS (+4,23%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+1,99%) , $BMW (+4,23%) , $MBG (+2,91%) and $TM (+1,68%). But also $V (+0,43%), $AAPL (+0,35%) and $SMSD (+4,09%) 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).
