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 (-0,15%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (+0,09%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+0,15%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-0,67%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (-0,07%) with $DTE (-0,22%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (-0,81%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (-4,59%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-0,29%), $CAJ (+4,08%) and $7731 (-0,6%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (-3,36%) and $4091 (+0,75%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (-0,38%) and $BAS (+1,38%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (+0,19%) , $BMW (-0,08%) , $MBG (+1,52%) and $TM (+1,84%). But also $V (+0,99%), $AAPL (-0,07%) and $SMSD (+1,33%) 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).
