Coffee Chat Questions post tariff

I am a May '24 grad currently working in operations at an F2F AM shop. I am making strides to move to the FO side within my company, but I also have a coffee chat in NYC with an MD IB who was a college friend of a family member. Just wondering how to do a coffee chat now, given post tariffs and trying to set myself up to switch to IB (if its possible given current situation). Also talking points would be great. Thanks!
