Investing is not a number game. It has consequences on the real world. If you buy a stock of people making weapons, yes, you are helping to create a world with more weapons. You are, quite litteraly, owning a piece of a company making weapons.<p>You can argue that you are ok with building weapon. It&#x27;s another debate.<p>But you can&#x27;t say you are not helping. Companies are selling shares on the market because it helps them.<p>And if tomorrow you make a big speech about gun control, it makes you a hypocrite.<p>You can slice it in many way, use semantics, play the cards of the layer of abstractions. But in the end, it&#x27;s a simple truth.
