Strong trading statement yesterday confirms solid progress, reflected in steadily appreciating share price.Always dyor.

Splendid interim results and full year believed to be "ahead of expectations". Sale of land and buildings on former site in Switzerland "progressing well and proceeds should exceed initial estimates". Hope some of you had these for a few years - mine still locked away in ISA but always dyor.

Superb results yesterday - profits rising faster than revenues owing to growing Healthcare side with better margins. Charlie Munger "You make your real money not by buying and selling, but by waiting" now applies to SCPA for me. Rating scarily high on fundamentals, but a quality business which imo could easily become prey. Always dyor.
