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 (+1,24%). The PC's and the monitors themselves are all from $HPQ (-3,69%) with keyboard and mouse from $LOGN (+1,35%). The telephone system is WebEx from $CSCO (-0,65%) and the work phones are from $AAPL (+0,77%) with $DTE (+0,83%) contract (and that although next door $VOD (+0,33%) sits). In addition, there are large monitors in each conference room from $DELL (-1,89%).
In the production of the semiconductors itself there are of course many machines from $ASML (-0,5%), $CAJ (+0,4%) and $7731 (-1,13%). The many industrial gases needed come from $LIN , $AI (+0,19%) and $4091 (+2,14%). The basic material and chemicals come among others also from $WCH (+4,28%) and $BAS (+1,48%).
The purchasers of the finished chips then include, for example. $VOW3 (-1,81%) , $BMW (-1,34%) , $MBG (-0,34%) and $TM (-1,48%). But also $V (+2,74%), $AAPL (+0,77%) and $SMSD (-2,74%) 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).
