Polen's quieter pre-cut quarter — book $23B, top names persistence-flagged with small trims. Big moves: ServiceNow +405% in shares (major add), Intuitive Surgical newly initiated at 2.04%, IWF ETF +241% (using ETF wrappers for cash deployment). Shopify cut -35%, Abbott -47% (notable healthcare profit-take). Reads as Polen still actively reshaping before the bigger Q1-2026 flow-driven trim.
