Sonki, thanks for the info. By "ML," I assume you mean Merril Lynch.
If you any kind of report, I would Love to see it. Zap it to me? If not, let me know if you come across anything. I am beginning to see their advertisements pop up (e.g. there's one in this month's Fortune mag) here and there. How did you become interested in Novartis and why did you decide to buy it? I have checked out other Swiss stocks. The Roche historical charts are odd, but they concern me as a Novartis competitor. There doesn't seem to be anything exciting about Nestle, although they do appear on the top 10 holdings lists of a few European mutual funds - www.morningstar.net. Novartis appears on several. Credit Suisse looks interesting, and it looks like them or Novartis. ( CS just merged big, with Winterthur Insurance. Their web site is informative.) It will be a few weeks before I do anything, so I am going to look into this as deeply as I can. Keep me posted. Thanks, again. Tom W. |
