Can someone explain "ethical investing?"?

A. Ethical is somewhat of a nebulous term with no concise definition. It is open to much interpretation. Your first responder gave you a decent answer. Many do not think tobacco companies are ethical. Others alcoholic beverage companies. Some might not think fast food companies are not ethical since their foods are not healthy at all and are probably causing millions to die from cholesterol related diseases and diabetes. Some might even question whether the drug companies are ethical. I for one question their ethics having watched their advertisements and having bought their outrageously overpriced drugs. Probably an argument could be made questioning the ethics of just about any company. Certainly, the ethics of the banking… [cont.]

Ethical investing a scam?
Q. How can it make any difference, other than the gain or loss I realize, what company's stock I invest in? I built a house in 1985, sold it in 1981, and pocketed all of the money. The house has subsequently sold 3 times, and of course I realized nothing from each of these sales. When a Co. wants to raise cash it makes a public offering, which is bought out by the institutions at wholesale and resold to the public at retail. From then on it is bought and sold by institutions and members of the public, thru brokers acting as middle men, and the Co. realizes nothing. Shares outstanding belong to the public and institutions. Are shares in the float still owned and sold by the Co., or is the Co. completely out of the picture? If they're out of… [cont.]

A. Companies still own millions of their own shares to give out for dividends reinvested, employee stock options & bonuses. Plus, if the stock price stays in the dumps, people like Carl Ican will buy up a lot of shares and bug the management to put their (Ican's) people on the board of directors or change management (look at Hewett-Packard, Home Depot to name 2 recent management changes).

Socially responsible investing a scam?
Q. When we purchase stocks the money does not go to the "Company", it goes to the individual or institution that is selling, with a commission to the broker handling the sale. So socially responsible, or "ethical" investing is a figment of our imaginations, the money we use to buy the equities may go anywhere. Agree, or disagree?
Asked by gib_etheridge - Mon Apr 21 17:47:55 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The "Company" benefits by having a higher stock price... if it were to raise more capital or make an acquisition, it would benefit from you (and others) pumping up its stock price. That's the idea behind capitalism (outside of an IPO or secondary offering). You could also say a higher stock price helps the Company via gains to its stock holding employees. But yeah, since your everyday trades aren't directly funding the Company, the beneficiaries are only the intermediaries.

But if you are willing to put in the time, I would try trading stocks, futures, bonds, or forex. Which ever you like. It will take a while to learn the ropes, but trading can be a fun way to investing your money and realize gains. Whatever you decide, you should first invest a lil money and time into learning the paticular avenue that you decide to pursue. I would suggest hiting the library and getting a few books on the subject and if you are trading open up a practice acct and test the waters a little bit. good luck

A. Yes. Why not? H e may have to disclose that he has an interest in the shares, and in any case he would have to get permission to deal from his compliance department. Furthermore he would have to be careful not to "front run". I.E. It wouldn't look good to buy shares just before he recommends his clients to invest, especially if he got a better price. If you are in any doubt ask him these questions directly. The odd thing here is that the investment research by his company CANNOT be given to their Retail clients.

A. I'm not sure there are any ethics when it comes to Wall Street investors. Just remember, they have the retirement of most Americans locked up in a 401k now. You can't touch your 401k money without severe penalties, but there are no penalties to short-sell or move money around for the average investor.
