Naturally, I still have to do with various things which are traded on the stock exchange, but are not companies... these include: $965515 (-0,05%) (gold), $965310 (-1,89%) (silver), platinum and the various currency pairs like $965275 (-0,27%) (EUR/USD) but also all other currencies (AUD, NOK, GBP, JPN, SEK, PLN, CZK, SAR, etc. etc. etc.). Subordinately, we also have to deal with $BTC (-3,44%) (Bitcoin), although it is rather negligible.

In our other parts of the company we also deal with $UHR (+3,36%) (SwatchGroup).

What strikes me personally when I look at my professional environment:

There are dozens of companies in this sector, which are not traded on the stock exchange. Among them are some refineries (partly huge company constructs), service providers and luxury goods manufacturers. Also in the area of analysis technology (physical), equipment and software, there are some well-known manufacturers who have so far shied away from the stock exchange or are family-run.

In my private environment I have to do of course like each of you with various products and brands. A separate listing should be interesting for the fewest...

But the most extraordinary might be $RI (+2,91%) (Pernod Ricard), which is not least due to one of my hobbies: ABSOLUT VODKA bottles in the various designs and Limiteditions collect.

Basically I nominate all Getquin friendsbut especially @Der_Dividenden_Monteur , @Staatsmann
@Simpson !
