I nbotice that quite a few Social funds currently invest in Wal-mart. I find this to be such a
contradiction since Walmart sells guns. How can any social fund possibly call themselves SRI and
yest still invest in such a company?
The Domini Index fund is a good example of a fund
which does this. I fail to see how they can justify this at all.
As an SRI investor I do
not want to invest in a fund which supports teh sale of guns!
Can anyone tell me any funds
which specifically exclude Wal-mart?
Thanks
