Q: Hi — Appreciate the service.

Question about FPR-T, purchased in ~2018 at $21.09 as fixed-income/yield instrument at a time of low interest rates.

Need to generate some cash and am considering selling this achieved-its-purpose stock.

Q: I am a long term owner of AAPL and have done well by it. I am wondering if a switch into GOOG for its projected growth is a better long term holding in your opinion. How would you compare the two? Perhaps the obvious solution is to sell half of AAPL for a GOOG purchase. My other tech names include MSFT, CSU, SHOP, LMN, NVDA and VRT with tech making up 25% of my overall portfolio. Many thanks.
