Let's take a closer look at the changes in the company's top holdings and what they might mean for investors.
Apple Inc. (AAPL)

This represents a 25% decrease in the value of AE Wealth Management LLC's holdings in Apple Inc. Though the decline in value may seem daunting, it is important to note that the broader market performed unfavorably in the first quarter of 2023, and the decrease in Apple Inc.'s stock price is not necessarily indicative of the company's performance.
