Why Large Corps are Going Woke and Losing Big

BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street manage over $20 Trillion and they are major stockholders in many publicly traded corporations.

BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street force these companies to implement woke policies.

We are all witnessing the results of these idiotic and deranged people running these investment firms.

Woke corporate governance often stems from involved investment firms: Former Anheuser-Busch exec

Engaging in woke politics has led to an endangerment of some firms' fiduciary responsibilities

It is good that we are seeing these corporation's lose with boycotts.

These companies are Not making mistakes. They are bowing to ESG, WEF, DEI policy to check boxes for funding.

Funding coupled with the demoralization of America. Tear down long standing iconic brands that have traditionally represented America and american values like freedom, personal greatness, responsibility, success, american exceptionalism. They want to tear that fabric just like the cultural fabric they have been tearing down.

It’s a planned destruction of America so they can replace the system with communism and create a system of extremely wealthy elites and extremely poor peasants that a dependent on the govt.

The good part about it is that the public is recognizing it and seeking alternatives for their products and their investments and new investment bankers are also seeing this as an opportunity to not force those idiotic policies on clients who do not want to participate in such policies that most of America hates.

Not so sure, because AB has been severely damaged and this is a long-term problem. Target, as well.My point is that their stock performance will be damaged long-term, which would make buying "the dip," not a good buy.

The LGBTQ+ community is making it worse by making the gender BS the hill they want to climb. They have really made this a war that they will not win.

Yeah, Blackrocks 100K shares in AB takes a hit while the 100K shares they have in Coors lite makes up for it.

Financial markets haven't seen the complete fallout from the Fed rate hikes yet, it's going to take a bit longer due to the prolonged low interest rate environment that existed.

Not moving my 401k out of bonds until after that happens.

Remember the witch hunts? Maybe it's time to just start burning WEF, Blackrock, Vanguard, et al people at the stake.

What the American people need is acommonenemy, but they're too preoccupied bickering amongst themselves because they're being actively manipulated and torn apart by said enemy.

Part of the problem is that Americans attach themselves to brands and corporations, thinking that any soulless husk willing to take that funding could actually give a damn about any of the virtues you mentioned.

So many people are just utterly complacent and sedated by their infatuation with corporate programming. Theyneedto give their money to the next Disney movie, theyneedto buy the next baby yoda, and theyneedto book a trip they can hardly afford to be bombarded with nonstop commercialism and hokey mascots telling them to buy more merchandise.

The vast majority of what people grew up with fondly havealsooutgrown that nostalgic, cheerful innocence and have become the festering tumors corrupting the world.

Think about how many people mindlessly subscribe to Netflix or Disney even as the content drops off a cliff, they hike prices, cut content some more, force their own spotlight content into the front page, throw in an ad tier for even more profits and consumerism drivel, and unabashedly support stuff like Cuties - all while taking those checks from the Blackrocks of the world.

It's like we're living in We Live, but some people would continue to refuse to put on the glasses even as they're being bent over a trough.
I will stand firm, I refuse to kneel - The fury in me is divine
My dark grave awaits, my fate is revealed - But I'm not afraid to die

The Human Rights Campaign lobbies the gov't for companies to adopt CEI, which is a gay credit score.

Meanwhile ,other groups lobby the SEC for more ESG regulations

You will start to see groups of small investors grouping together and suing company officers for breaches of their fiduciary responsibilities.

Company officers are legally obligated to act in the best financial interests of shareholders.

I agree and it is very slowly kicking in that the majority of the public is tired of DEI shoved down our throats. A major insurance company's CEO was quoted as saying, "If you/your business do not implement DEI, you are not relevant."

Red States need to completely divest from BlackRock and Vanguard and also give all States alternatives to these MFKers who shove useless ideologies down our throats.

Just as leftist bankers and politicians do not want to invest into oil and fossil fuel companies, conservatives don't want to invest into woke policies.

I'm not surprised that conservatives have decided to not give their money to companies that promote sex gender issues to young children. Will be interesting to see if the companies such as Target, Disney, Bud, etc change their policies in light of the recent decision of many to not buy their goods.

Very true and I agree. Women have to be so conflicted, because even though they are the most empathetic gender, where is the line drawn? Trans Women athletes are taking over real women sports. Women are being marginalized.

Will women or some women ever change their minds? The way that dems support illegals and trans women, indicates that dems are losing their focus and that real women are not as important.
