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 (+1,26%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-2,03%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-3,68%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-0,83%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,17%) with $DTE (-1,12%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+0,13%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+0,08%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (+0,84%), $CAJ (+0%) and $7731 (+8,95%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+0,19%) and $4091 (+3,22%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+3,3%) and $BAS (-1,17%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+1,26%) , $BMW (-5,42%) , $MBG (+0,07%) and $TM (+1,88%). But also $V (+1,14%), $AAPL (+0,17%) and $SMSD (+1,29%) 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).
