  • Adam talks to Eric Balchunas - Senior ETF Analyst at Bloomberg and Author of "The Bogle Effect"
    Adam talks with Senior ETF Analyst for Bloomberg, Eric Balchunas. He is one of the first to shine a light on the God Bless America ETF. The discussion covered why the fund started and why Balchunas thinks his tweet about it had such a strong reaction. The fund actively boycotts companies – with market caps above $1 Billion dollars ­­­– that make political or social activist statements at the expense of maximizing shareholder returns. We're investing in companies that steer clear of political and social activism (Go Woke, Go Broke!) The fund leans toward companies that are job creators. Payroll is an investment, not an expense!
