From https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/VICEX:US
USA Mutuals Vitium Global Fund seeks long-term growth of capital by investing in equity securities of companies that derive a significant portion of their revenues from a group of vice industries that includes the alcoholic beverages, defense/aerospace, gaming and tobacco industries. The Fund will concentrate at least 25% of its net assets in this group of four vice industries.
