Are Do-Gooder Mutual Funds Losing Steam?

FYI: The average socially conscious mutual fund has outperformed the broad stock market in the past 15 years. The market has been catching up the past few years, but some socially conscious funds continue to excel. Socially conscious mutual funds avoid some of the most profitable areas of the stock market. They avoid some or all industries involving guns, alcohol, tobacco, gambling and pollution, and they favor companies engaged in clean energy.
