We also rotated out of retail to fund higher-conviction defensive picks. In their place, the system added gold mining exposure ($AEM) as a direct beneficiary of safe-haven flows, strengthened our healthcare and pharma sleeve with large-cap defensive compounders and a royalty-based pharma model, and added a cash-flow-driven consumer financial services name. We retain our AI memory/storage positions ($MU, $WDC (Western Digital Corporation)) as a structural conviction alongside healthcare distribution, convenience retail, and education services holdings.
