Apple's results may have exceeded expectations, but I don't feel good about it. Tariffs are gradually starting to be reflected in the results and growth is slowing. I still hold $AAPLstock in my portfolio, but I sold some of it last week and moved the money into other stocks.
Does Apple still look like an interesting investment to you?
I don't have one in my portfolio at night and I only invest once. If I wanted to invest regularly, I would choose SP500.

He's a big role model of mine, so it's also thanks to him that I started investing and focused on value investing.
