A true conglomerate that has very calculated and purposeful business moves. Has a record of turning around companies using the Danaher business model.

Overall a good stock to own, but is now slightly overvalued. Will perform OK over the next few years, but will be under the market returns.

Danaher corp is a small GE. This company is extremely well managed and returns consistent profits. Look for a split around $100.

Sat next to the EVP of HR on a plane. In his words "we are the bext company you never heard of". They have a nice balance sheet, diversified business, and an impressive commitment to management, responsibility, and shareholder friendliness.
