Imagine how much more would be available for funding old age pensioners, schools, hospitals and kidney machines if you have a passively invested portfolio rather than an ethically invested portfolio. Virtue signalling is not free. Ethical investing significantly underperforms the market even if done by the best of the passive investing funds such as Vanguard.

Ethical investing is back in the news again; time to look at the investment performance of a fund specialising in investing in the sin industries.

My only question is why have guards outside if there is a nuclear holocaust. My other only question is why have a lot of armed people outside with keys to get in.
