Apple has a hardware cycle coming and people still view it that way. They see AI as something it can solve. Apple's balance sheet has not been strained by heavy capital raising for AI spending like some other companies. Therefore, Apple may be a bright spot in the AI trade.
Instrumentation companies like Danaher are attractive due to strong cash flow and the ability to thrive in an environment not dependent on a single spending track.
A whole bunch of places are trying to catch up after being ignored in favor of AI. There is big interest in healthcare, financials, and biotechs, with early stage companies getting bought.

Energy has become "investable again" as the crisis highlights continued hydrocarbon dependence. The sector is a dividend-paying, cash-flow-generating group. The geopolitical shock has reset perceptions about the energy transition timeline, emphasizing energy security. Higher oil prices directly benefit cash flows. Energy stocks offer a combination of yield, cash flow, and a hedge against persistent geopolitical risk in the Middle East. A rapid and peaceful resolution to the Iran conflict could cause oil prices to collapse, undermining the thesis.

Hunt observes investors fleeing to "places that are least vulnerable," specifically mentioning Costco and Walmart as having "giant moats."
