Attention Catholics
I have talked to individuals and institutions. When people don't Invest Catholic, the common reason is that I am invested for return and live values in other ways.
Do you really believe that companies that make abortificents have better growth potential? I am really not trying to be crass, it just does not add up. Don't be fooled.
FFV 100 is down 27.28% in the last 12 months
S&P 500 is down 33.38% in the last 12 months
FFV 100 is the 100 largest companies that pass the Catholic Scorecard. This is actual year-to-date performance listed above and not a prediction of the future.
