Merck Upgraded To “Buy” — At The World’s Oldest Merchant Banking Concern…

Well, its not every day that you see a capital market participant that has been in business… without interruption since the late 1500s.

Berenberg’s trading company predates even the East India Trading Company, by over a decade (and that concern has been defunct since 1874). How’s that for old line chops?

Yes — this decidedly stodgy, “old-world monied” partnership (logo at right) has declared Merck a low risk bet, and upgraded the name to a “Buy“.

…Merck is a solid “low-risk option” in pharmaceuticals….

Indeed, it is. Onward… grinning — that is how you last nearly six centuries: you don’t overstate anything; and you don’t get out over your skis. Charles the Third should take note — his mother well knew the wisdom of that notion. Cool, cool….
