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 (+0,49%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+1,32%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+0,69%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-0,97%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,12%) with $DTE (+0,81%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (-0,37%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (+2,63%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-0,98%), $CAJ (-1,92%) and $7731 (-5,03%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+0,16%) and $4091 (-2,41%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+1,29%) and $BAS (+0,85%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+0,16%) , $BMW (-0,61%) , $MBG (-0,25%) and $TM (+0,83%). But also $V (-0,11%), $AAPL (+0,12%) and $SMSD (+2,35%) 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).
