From a Tariff perspective please provide your evaluation of the following names and how they might prevail or be negatively affected by US Tariffs:

Q: Your parents give you $100k CAD and $100k USD to invest on behalf of your family for the next 5 years.

Q: I’ve owned AAPL for the past 15 years+ and it now represents a 3.5% position of my overall portfolio. 10 years from retirement with a risk reward appetite leaning to measured risk. Top holdings in order are BN, GOOG, NVDA, AMAZ, WSP, BkNG, CSU, ISRG, V, AXON then AAPL. If it’s you, do you keep it or find something with a better growth trajectory? I’m over in consumer discretionary and under in staples so wondering if a move to DOL makes sense? Thoughts?
