==WUaS Idea- and Academic Resources==




===Ideas===


Remember, buyer beware, and check with "Morningstar Guide to Mutual Funds" (a "Consumer Reports" of mutual fund investing with ratings and comparisons) online through your local, public library, ... but three, diversified, low-cost, socially responsibly, mutual funds, that top my list for investing for retirement), are:


TIAA CREF Social Choice Equity Fund - TICRX


Vanguard FTSE Social Index Fund Investor Shares - VFTSX


Domini Social Equity Fund - DSEFX




Vanguard Health Care fund finishes in the top 1% of all mutual funds after 15 years, and is very low cost, and has very low turnover, but is now closed. It also buys stocks similar to that which a socially responsible mutual fund would buy. T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Fund - PRHSX - is performing remarkably these days, but as a health care fund, it isn't diversified, and hence more risky (the big concern in investing) than the above diversified, socially responsible, mutual funds. Check these two out in Morningstar.




Use Morningstar Guide to Mutual Funds (an objective, comparative analysis), or similar (e.g. Consumer Reports), through your online, local, public library, to do your own research about mutual funds to buy for the long term.

World University and School {in a virtual world}

Welcome to World University and School Wiki
which anyone can add to or edit.
The Global, Virtual/Digital, Open, Free, {potentially Degree- and Credit-Granting},
Multilingual University & School
where anyone can teach or take a class or course

  • Add or take a free, open Investing - Socially Responsible course.

WUaS Idea- and Academic Resources[edit]

Ideas[edit]

Remember, buyer beware, and check with "Morningstar Guide to Mutual Funds" (a "Consumer Reports" of mutual fund investing with ratings and comparisons) online through your local, public library, ... but three, diversified, low-cost, socially responsibly, mutual funds, that top my list for investing for retirement), are:

TIAA CREF Social Choice Equity Fund - TICRX

Vanguard FTSE Social Index Fund Investor Shares - VFTSX

Domini Social Equity Fund - DSEFX


Vanguard Health Care fund finishes in the top 1% of all mutual funds after 15 years, and is very low cost, and has very low turnover, but is now closed. It also buys stocks similar to that which a socially responsible mutual fund would buy. T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Fund - PRHSX - is performing remarkably these days, but as a health care fund, it isn't diversified, and hence more risky (the big concern in investing) than the above diversified, socially responsible, mutual funds. Check these two out in Morningstar.


Use Morningstar Guide to Mutual Funds (an objective, comparative analysis), or similar (e.g. Consumer Reports), through your online, local, public library, to do your own research about mutual funds to buy for the long term.


Publish my article in a WUaS academic journal in this subject[edit]

Open Journal Systems. 2012. Open Journal Systems. Public Knowledge Project.

(WUaS's wiki, information technologies and criteria for this - informed by the WUaS academic journal subject matter - are developing, since you can already publish your article at Academia.edu http://www.academia.edu or Research Gate - http://www.researchgate.net/ - or Spire - http://spire.sciences-po.fr/web/ - for example); See Library Resources below at WUaS for further resources.
