What do you think about Thermo Fisher?

I have a long-term holding in the portfolio myself. TF is the market leader and cannot be overtaken or replaced so quickly. When it comes to healthcare research, TF is directly and indirectly involved. People are becoming more numerous, older and sicker. This means that growth will not slow down for the time being.
