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 (+1,54%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+3,62%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+0,49%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (+1,78%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,52%) with $DTE (-3,92%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+1,01%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+3,64%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-2,43%), $CAJ (+0%) and $7731 (+1,53%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+0,43%) and $4091 (+0,16%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-0,9%) and $BAS (+0,02%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-1,22%) , $BMW (+0,4%) , $MBG (-0,23%) and $TM (-0,55%). But also $V (+1,18%), $AAPL (+0,52%) and $SMSD (-4,75%) 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).
