Persuade or dissuade me from some potential picks

Looking to potentially buy and hold these stocks. The amount I'm investing would be less than 5% of my portfolio, and the goal/hope would be this 5% outperforming the rest. I'm an absolute beginner here, but my choices aren't based off nothing. Not married to any of these stocks, just interested in what I might hear here vs. mainstream investing advice.
