Financial Forum at DU
Why doesn't DU have a forum where people talk about stocks, investing, and managing money? Why can't there be a forum to talk about business and which companies are ethical? Or one about progressive investing?

I can say that I progressively invest somewhat. I own a the Calvert Income Bond Fund, a few shares in that. Supposedly that is a "socially conscious" fund.

How does one invest ethically?

1. Socially conscious investing? Is that possible?
You ask a great question. I too own some Calvert. I would like reading and responding to the kind of thing you are considering. I am just a little too fatigued to add anything of interest now.

4. Calvert Income Fund is one of the best bond funds
out there. Yet it is "socially conscious". How does it do that?
