It has finally sunk in that I own Dominion Energy stock in my IRA. They are doing well...
However this is the same Dominion that’s trying to get the pipeline through VA and I am opposed to that action on several fronts. And they have a case in front of the Supreme Court right now.
Do I keep it or sell it? The BIL, who is my financial advisor says that selling it won’t make much of a statement to the company.
What say you?
If you want your investing to make a statement, consider buying funds that are designed to avoid ethically yucky projects and companies. That's how corporations get the message about socially responsible investing - not at the level of the individual retirement investor.
