FAQs

I love the idea, but I do not want to sacrifice performance.

We understand the importance of performance. Nobody wants to leave money on the table. For that reason, ACVF is not “ideologically pure,” but a balance between performance and advocacy. ACVF is a diversified large-cap portfolio that maintains sector and style exposure similar to the overall market. We are seeking to balance performance, which is competitive with benchmarks such as the S&P 500 and Russell 1000, with the advocacy of avoiding the worst-offending liberal companies. If we avoided all the “woke/liberal” companies, sadly we would not have many companies left to invest in.

Your holdings make no sense? Why aren’t you boycotting abc or xzy corp, they are very liberal?

If we boycotted all the liberal companies, sadly we would not have many to invest in. The easiest way to evaluate our holdings is to look at what we do not own, our Boycotts. What we do own is largely the result of our diversified large-cap portfolio construction and not an endorsement of the companies ideological purity, they simply are not the worst companies.

Please email us or take our Survey, to let us know the companies that you believe are the most liberal.

How does not owning their stock hurt the company?

Our favorite is executive compensation. Typically, senior managers are rewarded when their company’s stock price rises. When we sell their stock or withhold from buying, it is less likely to go up. For example, the largest, large-cap ETF owns over $7 billion dollars of Facebook (FB). If half of those dollars are politically conservative and investors subsequently sell FB, it will be noticed.
