The Opposite of Socially Responsible Investing

New ETF tracks Wal-Mart business partners [BloggingStocks]
Want some numbers? Here you go: Del-Monte gets 31% of its business from Wal-Mart, Kellogg gets 18% and Mattel almost 20%. That's putting some awfully large eggs in one basket, but you can own them now for a lowly 0.35% to 0.6% in fees if you'd like. The fund opened November 30 for trading.
New ETF Family FocusShares Offers 4 Niche Funds [Seeking Alpha]
The Wal-Mart Suppliers fund may be the most innovative of the bunch. It holds a set of companies that sell a large percentage of their goods through Wal-Mart: household names like Kellogg and Mattel. The index has significantly outperformed Wal-Mart itself, and is an interesting proxy for the American retail economy. Investors who are no longer enamored with the retailing giant from an investment perspective ... but who think the company could continue to take a bigger slice of the retailing pie ... may find this product interesting.
