Q: Hello 5i, I am up quite a bit on MRK, ABBVIE and HHLE. In answer to a question on MRK by Michael on Jan 22 you wrote "We would take a look at AMGN as an alternative to MRK". With the success I have with MRK et al. is MRK a sell to be replaced by AMGN now or is MRK still a keeper for now. Value investor.

5i Research Answer:
We would still be comfortable with MRK overall and just offered AMGN as an alternative. MRK has been disappointing but still has potential and we would consider it a 'safe' name within the sector.
