- Vice_Fund abstract "The Vice Fund (MUTF: VICEX) is a mutual fund investing in companies that have significant involvement in, or derive a substantial portion of their revenues from the tobacco, gambling, defense/weapons, and alcohol industries. A primary focus of stock selection is the ability of a company to pay and grow dividends.The fund has received a great deal of media coverage even in non-English magazines.“Is it Better to be Naughty or Nice,” by Shank cites a study that compared portfolios made up of top socially responsible investing (SRI) funds and that made up of top vice funds. Analysis of alpha regression models found that in the short-term, differences between the two portfolios’ performance was negligible. Only the SRI funds had any significant positive risk-adjusted performance. For the five- and ten-year periods, only the SRI portfolio had positive and significant alpha value, suggesting that the market valued the features of the companies in the SRI portfolio. For the same periods, the vice portfolio showed no significant excess return. These findings indicate that the market valued the features of the SRI portfolio over the longer time horizons, while not valuing the vice funds for any period, and it was the SRI portfolio that had superior risk-adjusted performance.In addition, the Free Enterprise Action Fund, which performed worse than both the S&P 500 and most socially responsible mutual funds, files shareholder resolutions which oppose the general trend of socially responsible investing, for example by asking GE to "justify lobbying for global warming regulation."".
