The news check keeps the assessment current.

General analysis — not personal advice.

HOLD Clear

Keep as a core holding; consider adding only if a clearer NAV discount returns (e.g., ~10%+) or on broader weakness in key holdings.

Q2 confirms continued NAV growth, very low leverage and strong liquidity, yet the discount to NAV has narrowed close to zero, limiting upside and supporting a defensive stance.

Market sentiment Positive →
Trend: Stable

Predominantly positive but not euphoric; discussion centres on the discount to NAV, dividend increase and performance of major holdings.

Risk assessment Low
Dilution: Low Strong balance sheet, no issuance signaled
Jurisdiction: Low Sweden/Western Europe, stable rule of law
Execution: Low Long track record of capital allocation

HOLD is the call. Positive is the market mood. Low risk means less can go wrong.

Latest change
  • 22 Apr 2026 — The Q1 update reported adjusted NAV +3% to 367 SEK/share (1,125 bn SEK) and ~7% total return for the quarter. Portfolio actions included buys in EQT/Nasdaq/Atlas Copco and a sale of SEB (~1,520 MSEK).
