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 (+0,36%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-2,16%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (-1,56%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-1,32%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,94%) with $DTE (-0,25%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (-0,73%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+1,04%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-1,17%), $CAJ (+0%) and $7731 (+4,22%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+2,33%) and $4091 (-0,85%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-3,43%) and $BAS (-0,12%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-2,48%) , $BMW (+0,07%) , $MBG (-1,36%) and $TM (-0,17%). But also $V (+1,71%), $AAPL (+0,94%) and $SMSD (+3,86%) 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).
