List of Ethical Investment Funds

A List Of Ethical Investment Funds In Australia

One of the pleasing developments I've noticed over the last few years is the continually expanding selection of ethical funds available to Australian investors. But unfortunately, some funds could be considered to have much stronger ethical policies than others. For example, AMP Limited (ASX:AMP) has a fund called "The AMP Capital Ethical Leaders Fund".

Ecofibre (ASX:EOF) Quarterly Report Update Q1 FY 2020

When Ecofibre Ltd (ASX:EOF) released its 4C (quarterly cashflow report) for the three months to 30th September early last week, there was no notable share price reaction. However, we do note straight out of the gates that it was rather early, and not amidst the muddy scrum of 4Cs lodged in the last couple of days before the deadline. I like this, because I think it demonstrates that the company has its sh!t together and management have a steady hand on the tiller. That's important in a fast moving industry such as hemp products.

It's Time To Die, Livehire (ASX:LVH)

Time To Die, Livehire (ASX:LVH)

Livehire (ASX:LVH) is a “talent management technology company” with a market capitalisation of $84 million at the current share price of $0.285. The company has around $35 million in cash which we believe should be returned to shareholders since we believe the business is destined to fail and the business itself is worth nothing, at best.

How To Calculate Free Cash Flow And 2 Rules To Avoid The Hype Trap

I recently shared "2 Rules To Avoid The Hype Trap" with Ethical Equities Supporters. Following those rules requires that investors can establish revenue growth, free cash flow and profit from the primary documents. It is always important to take these numbers from the accounts themselves, because companies will often highlight misleading adjusted numbers in their presentations, not the statutory numbers.

Appen (ASX:APX) FY 2019 Results Analysis

Appen Ltd (ASX:APX) FY 2019 Half Year Results Analysis

On Thursday Appen (ASX: APX) reported its results for the first half of FY19 (the company has a December reporting year-end). The stock price moved violently in response, initially soaring 10% within the first hour of trading to almost $30 (within sight of the $32 all-time high set in late July), but from that point plunged 20% to below $24 and ended the day down 11% from its previous close. On Friday the share price rebounded 7% as the market digested the key takeaways, and the APX share price managed to record a 2% gain for the week despite the nausea-inducing rollercoaster ride. In fairness, there was quite a bit to digest, but also readers should remember that over the past couple of months the markets have been particularly jittery amidst the ongoing trade/tariff wars, inversion of the yield curve and other macro concerns.
