Go woke go broke ETF
With all the recent controversies surrounding companies like Disney, Target, and Bud Light, one firm decided to take the matter into its own hands — and file for an ETF.
Tuttle Capital Management filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 5 for an ETF called Tuttle Capital Inverse Socially Conscious ETF with the ticker GWGB.
This will be an actively managed ETF where the fund will invest in companies that are politically conservative or politically neutral, and by taking short positions in US-listed equity securities that are following “woke” policies.
