I see that Dogs of the Dow is recommended by Jacob in the 21 days to ERE list.
I have a problem with Dogs of the Dow - I hate every company on that list and want to give money to them like I'd like to give myself a black eye. In fact part of me would love to hedge against many of them doing well in 30-50 years, esp since most of them have business models completely based on cheap energy economics.
Has anybody tried any different strategies that meet my oddball socially active investor requirements? I suppose permanent portfolio covers this to to a degree...
