I have a great crop of 16 articles for you in this podcast! ------------------------------------------------------------- More Top ESG ETFs and Companies (1) My first review article appeared on a favourite investor website, morningstar.com. It's titled Five Top ESG ETFs for US Investors and is written by Hannah Hummel. Here are some brief comments on each ETF from Ms. Hummel. “To find these 174 sustainable ETFs, we applied multiple screens across all exchange-traded funds in Morningstar's database, selecting only equity investments that are both domiciled in the United States and traded on a United States Exchange. Next, we filtered the remaining ETFs down to only those Morningstar designates as an ‘ESG Intentional Investment – Overall.' (Read here.)… All fund sizes are as of June 2, 2025. 1. iShares ESG Aware MSCI USA ETF ESGU Morningstar Category: Large Blend Morningstar Medalist Rating: Silver Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: Above Average Analyst: Lan Anh Tran IShares ESG Aware MSCI USA ETF tops our screen with $13.37 billion in assets under management. Incepted in December 2016, the fund has returned 0.48% year to date, trailing a 1.06% return for the S&P 500 and a 0.86% return for the Morningstar US Market Index in 2025. Over the past three years, the fund has posted a 13.59% annualized return, underperforming the S&P 500 at 14.41% and the Morningstar US Market Index at 14.05%. This passively managed fund tracks the MSCI USA Extended ESG Focus Index. 2. Vanguard ESG US Stock ETF ESGV Morningstar Category: Large Blend Morningstar Medalist Rating: Silver Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: Above Average Analyst: Lan Anh Tran The only ETF offered by a provider other than iShares that places among our screen's five largest vehicles is the $10.16 billion Vanguard ESG US Stock ETF. The Silver Morningstar Medalist was launched… in September 2018. Year to date, investors have seen a negative 0.21% return, leaving the fund trailing the S&P 500 and the Morningstar US Market Index by 1.27 percentage points and 1.07 percentage points, respectively. In the past three years, however, the fund has delivered a 14.45% annualized return, slightly overperforming the S&P 500 at 14.41%. Like the other four largest funds in our screen, Vanguard ESG US Stock ETF is passively managed, designed to replicate the performance of the FTSE USA All Cap Choice Index. 3. iShares ESG Aware MSCI EAFE ETF ESGD Morningstar Category: Foreign Large Blend Morningstar Medalist Rating: Silver Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: Above Average Analyst: Zachary Evens The largest ETF falling under the foreign large-blend Morningstar Category and the third largest across our screen overall is the $9.73 billion iShares ESG Aware MSCI EAFE ETF. Opened to investors in June 2016, this Silver medalist has returned an impressive 16.7% year to date against a 5.22% return for the Morningstar Global Markets Index. The fund's three-year annualized return is 11.3%, trailing the Morningstar Global Markets Index by 0.42 percentage points. In keeping with the remainder of the five largest funds in our screen, iShares ESG Aware MSCI EAFE ETF is passively managed, tracking the MSCI EAFE Extended ESG Focus Index. 4. iShares ESG Aware MSCI EM ETF ESGE Morningstar Category: Diversified Emerging Markets Morningstar Medalist Rating: Bronze Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: Above Average Analyst: Lan Anh Tran IShares ESG Aware MSCI EM ETF ranks fourth in our screen with $4.73 billion in assets under management. Launched in June 2018, the IShares ESG Aware MSCI EM ETF has returned 9.74% in 2025, beating a 7.54% return for the Morningstar Emerging Markets Index. Looking over a longer horizon, the fund's three-year annualized return is 4.62%, trailing a 5.46% return for the Morningstar Emerging Markets Index. This Bronze Morningstar Medalist is passively managed, seeking to replicate the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Extended ESG Focus Index. 5. iShares ESG MSCI KLD 400 ETF DSI Morningstar Category: Large Blend Morningstar Medalist Rating: Bronze Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: High Analyst: Ryan Jackson Rounding out our list of the top five largest US-domiciled ESG Equity ETFs is iShares ESG MSCI KLD 400 ETF with $4.5 billion in assets under management. Incepted in November 2006, it is the oldest fund among the five largest in our screen by nearly a decade. Year to date, DSI has returned negative 0.88%, trailing the S&P 500 by 0.18 percentage points, but outperforming the Morningstar US Market Index by 0.02 percentage points. This Bronze Morningstar Medalist passive fund seeks to replicate the performance of the MSCI KLD 400 Social Index.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- More Top ESG ETFs and Companies (2) Now, another article by Hannah Hummel on morningstar.com. This one is titled 2 Top Undervalued EV Stocks to Watch Now. Again, some brief quotes on each stock by her. Morningstar Data as of May 13, 2025. “1. Analog Devices ADI Morningstar Economic Moat Rating: Wide Price/Fair Value: 0.93 Morningstar Rating: 4 stars Sector: Technology Analog Devices is a leading global manufacturer of mixed-signal and analog chips. [Its] chips function by translating environmental conditions like temperature and sound into viable digital signals. The company supplies chips to a diverse range of end markets, including automotive companies, as well as manufacturers of medical devices, robots, and industrial machinery. In both fiscal 2022 and 2023, the adjusted operating margin for the firm hit 49%, though it has since declined to 41% in fiscal 2024. Morningstar anticipates, however, that the adjusted operating margin for Analog Devices could reach 50% by fiscal 2028, bolstered by a projected 9% average annual growth in sales. Considering Morningstar's current fair value estimate of $245 per share, projections for fiscal 2025 are in line with a 3% free cash flow yield. At a recent $226.68 per share, Analog Devices was trading at a 7% discount to Morningstar's fair value estimate. 2. NXP Semiconductors NXPI Morningstar Economic Moat Rating: Wide Price/Fair Value: 0.76 Morningstar Rating: 4 stars Sector: Technology NXP Semiconductors is a prominent player among automotive semiconductor manufacturers. Like Analog Devices, the firm's expertise is not limited solely to automotive chipmaking, as it also sells to the mobile, communications infrastructure, and industrial markets. Moreover, through enabling near-field communication, or NFC, NXP Semiconductors powers the mobile wallet offerings of multiple high-profile clients, the likes of which include Google GOOGL and Apple AAPL. Although the firm lost 5.0% in revenue in 2024 and Morningstar models an 8.5% decrease in revenue this year amid tariff-related market challenges, Morningstar anticipates a recovery by 2026. Indeed, Morningstar models indicate that NXP Semiconductors' revenue could increase 6% in 2026 as EV designs call for an increasing proportion of chips embedded into their systems. Morningstar's fair value estimate for NXP Semiconductors currently sits at $280 per share, indicating a 6% free cash flow yield for 2025. At a recent $212.40 per share, NXP Semiconductors was trading at a 24% discount to Morningstar's fair value estimate.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- More Top ESG ETFs and Companies (3) My third article brings us back to a favourite sector for ethical and sustainable investors. The article is titled 3 Alternative Energy Stocks to Watch Amid Escalated Tariff Uncertainty and was found on zacks.com and is by analyst Aparajita Dutta. Her article is a comprehensive review and analysis of the industry and a few of its leading companies. Here are some quotes by Ms. Dutta from her article. “The Alternative Energy Industry has outperformed its sector as well as the Zacks S&P 500 composite over the past year. The stocks in this industry have collectively surged 41.9% in the past year against the Oils-Energy sector's 9.8% decline. The Zacks S&P 500 composite has gained 11.7% in the same time frame… 1. Ormat Technologies ORA Based in Reno, NV, the company is primarily engaged in the geothermal energy power business. On May 27, 2025, Ormat Technologies announced a $62 million Hybrid Tax Equity partnership with Morgan Stanley Renewables to support its Lower Rio and Arrowleaf energy storage and solar projects, expected to be operational by the end of 2025. This innovative financing will help Ormat monetize $160 million in tax benefits in 2025, boosting profitability and supporting its long-term energy storage growth strategy. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company's 2025 sales implies an improvement of 8.4% from the previous year's estimated figure. The stock boasts a long-term (three-to-five years) earnings growth rate of 10%. The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). Ormat Technologies, Inc. (ORA): Free Stock Analysis Report. 2. Standard Lithium SLI Based in Vancouver, Canada, Standard Lithium is a technology and lithium development company. Its flagship project is located in southern Arkansas, where it is engaged in the testing and proving of the commercial viability of lithium extraction. On May 29, 2025, it was announced that Smackover Lithium, a joint venture between Standard Lithium and Equinor, has secured AOGC approval for a 2.5% lithium royalty rate for Phase I of its South West Arkansas Project, marking the first such approval in the state. This milestone sets a regulatory precedent and enhances Standard Lithium's pathway to commercial production by 2028. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Standard Lithium's 2025 bottom line is pegged at a loss of 8 cents per share, suggesting a solid improvement from the year-ago quarter's reported loss of 13 cents. The bottom line beat the consensus estimate in the last reported quarter. Standard Lithium currently carries a Zacks Rank #2. Standard Lithium Ltd. (SLI): Free Stock Analysis Report. 3. Bloom Energy BE.VI Based in San Jose, CA, the company generates and distributes renewable energy. On April 30, 2025, Bloom Energy posted its first-quarter 2025 results. Revenues of $326 million reflected an increase of 38.6% year over year. Bloom Energy's gross margin was 27.2%, reflecting a 110 basis points improvement over last year's reported figure. The stock holds a long-term earnings growth rate of 24.4%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2025 sales implies an improvement of 19.3% from the previous year's reported figure. The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Bloom Energy Corporation (BE): Free Stock Analysis Report.” End quotes ------------------------------------------------------------- More articles of interest from around the world for ethical and sustainable investors 1.

In this section of Luke he spoke to the matter of what is important. 3. And in the life of the world, riches is what is on people's hearts and minds and unfortunately it does not end there. 4. Many falsely or mistakenly associate earthly riches with Divine favor and salvation. 5. And the Lord Jesus came to straighten things out and said, you have your priorities ALL WRONG. 6. First, you have no power to cause anything. Secondly, God knows exactly all that you need and will see to it, so prioritize God because the very things that you are anxious about cannot save you and guess what, that IS WHAT THE WHOLE WORLD IS CHASING AFTER? 7.

I have a great crop of 19 articles for you in this podcast! ------------------------------------------------------------- Great Stock Picks in 18 New Articles! (1) The first article I'm reviewing appeared on insidermonkey.com. It's titled 11 Cheap ESG Stocks to Buy According to Hedge Funds by Rameen Kasana. Ms. Kasana employs fascinating methodology to arrive at her stock selection.

(2) The second article comes to us from the renowned Morningstar site. It's titled 2 Undervalued Automation Companies for Sustainable Investors. It's by Liz Angeles. Now, some quotes from her article. “The Morningstar Rating compares a stock's current price with Morningstar's estimate of its fair value, which is based on the present value of the company's future cash flow. A 4-star stock is undervalued, and a 5-star stock is significantly undervalued. 1) Sika Group (SKFOF) Established in 1910, Switzerland-based Sika produces specialty chemicals primarily used by the construction sector (85% of sales). Its products are mainly used for bonding, sealing, reinforcing, and protecting in the construction and automotive industries. Approximately 70% of its products have a positive impact on sustainability for customers. Sika has a global manufacturing footprint of more than 400 factories spread across over 100 countries. Price/Quantitative Fair Value: 0.89 Quantitative Morningstar Rating: ★★★★★ ESG Risk Rating Assessment: Medium Sector: Basic Materials 2) Zebra Technologies (ZBRA) Zebra Technologies is a leading provider of automatic identification and data capture technology to enterprises. Its solutions include barcode printers and scanners, mobile computers, and workflow optimization software. The firm primarily serves the retail, transportation logistics, manufacturing, and healthcare markets, designing custom solutions to improve efficiency for its customers. Analyst: William Kerwin, CFA Price/Fair Value: 0.75 Morningstar Rating: ★★★★ ESG Risk Rating Assessment: Negligible Sector: Technology” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Great Stock Picks in 18 New Articles! (3) This third article has a perspective that many investors concur with and posits it regarding Netflix. The title of the article is Possible Stock Split? This Stock Has Surged 284% Since 2023 -- Here's Why You Shouldn't Wait to Buy It. It's by Adam Levy of The Motley Fool and found on finance.yahoo.com. Here are a few brief quotes from Mr. Levy's article. “But enacting a stock split can be a very strong signal from management to investors. Management will usually initiate a stock split after a run-up in the price of the stock. When it announces a split, it's suggesting the current run-up in price is justified and that it expects the price to continue climbing. On the other hand, the confidence boost provided by a stock split will only go as far as the company's next earnings report or news item. If the fundamentals of the business are no good, or the stock has gotten ahead of itself, it doesn't make sense to buy it just because of a stock-split announcement. One stock I've had my eye on looks poised for a stock split this year. It's up 284% since the start of 2023, and investors have an opportunity to get in now, whether management announces a split in the near future or not. [That stock is] Netflix (Nasdaq: NFLX).” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Great Stock Picks in 18 New Articles! (4) The fourth article I'm posting appeared recently on one of the finest sites I know. That is corporateknights.com. The article's title is Pandora's big bet on sustainability pays off. It's by Naomi Buck. Here are a few quotes from that article. “Pandora (PNDORA.CO) According to those who study consumer habits, millennials and Gen Zs are looking for two things when they go shopping: sustainability and individuality. One jewellery company is capturing hearts and wallets by offering both. Pandora, launched as a family-run jewellery shop in Copenhagen in 1982, has grown to become the world's largest jewellery maker, by pieces sold. And unlike much of its industry in recent years, Pandora's star is rising. As competitors like Tiffany and Signet see diminishing returns, Pandora ended 2024 with 31.7 billion krone (US$4.5 billion) in annual revenue, representing 13% organic growth… In 2019, following several years of declining sales, Pandora embarked on a new strategy: to expand its product line beyond the luxury charm bracelets for which it had become famous and go all in on sustainability. It established three new priorities: to decarbonize, push circularity and promote a more diverse corporate culture. While sustainability may be front of mind for younger buyers, [Pandora CEO Alexander] Lacik admits that the average jewellery shopper is looking primarily at design and price. But even if customers weren't clamouring for it, Pandora's sustainability push has proven a sound business decision; according to its 2024 annual report, the company has grown by 45% since 2019. No doubt, others in the industry are watching with interest.” End quotes. Also, see this New York Times article on Pandora How the World's Largest Jeweler Is Surviving the Trade War. It's by Eshe Nelson. ------------------------------------------------------------- Great Stock Picks in 18 New Articles! (5) This fifth article was also posted on corporateknights.com with the same author as the previous article, Naomi Buck. Its title is Italy's ERG proves you can trade oil for renewables and win. Again, here are a few quotes from the article. “ERG (ERG.MI) In 2008, the Italian oil company ERG faced a crossroads. Having sold its 49% stake in a Sicilian refinery to Russian oil giant Lukoil just before the markets crashed, it had cash to burn. And it had a fundamental choice to make… By 2013, ERG had become Italy's leading producer of wind energy. It now has installed capacity in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria and Sweden, making it one of the continent's top 10 wind companies. It also owns major solar installations in Italy, Spain, France and the United States.  ERG's wholesale transition from black to green took little over a decade, and with it the company redefined itself: no longer responding to Italy's demand for oil, it sees itself – in its own words – ‘inspiring change to power the future.'” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- More articles of interest for ethical and sustainable investors from around the world 1.

More Top Sustainable Stocks To Consider includes several articles featuring terrific renewable energy, healthcare, branded consumer and natural food stocks. By Ron Robins, MBA Transcript & Links, Episode 152, April 18, 2025 Hello, Ron Robins here. Welcome to my podcast episode 152, published April 18, 2025, titled “More Top Sustainable Stocks To Consider.” It's presented by Investing for the Soul. Investingforthesoul.com is your site for vital global ethical and sustainable investing mentoring, news, commentary, information, and resources. Remember that you can find a full transcript and links to content, including stock symbols and bonus material, on this episode's podcast page at investingforthesoul.com/podcasts. Also, a reminder. I do not evaluate any of the stocks or funds mentioned in these podcasts, and I don't receive any compensation from anyone covered in these podcasts. Furthermore, I will reveal any investments I have in the investments mentioned herein. Additionally, quotes about individual companies are brief. Please visit the podcast's webpage for links to the articles and additional company and stock information. ------------------------------------------------------------- More Top Sustainable Stocks To Consider (1) Now, the following articles offer some interesting investment ideas. The first article is titled ESG Still Matters. 3 Defensive Stocks That Make the Grade. It's by Teresa Rivas and seen on barrons.com. Here are a few quotes from her article. “Portfolio manager Bill Davis is shutting out all the noise and sticking to his guns. The term ESG has been a lightning rod for a long time, but it is—and always has been—simply ‘a proxy for finding a well managed company…' Davis puts his money where his mouth when it comes to the actively managed Hennessy Stance ESG ETF, which doesn't invest in tobacco, fossil fuel, weapons, and similar areas. He does make exceptions based on company principles. The fund uses an algorithm to rank S&P 500 companies by various risk factors and metrics, and identifies those most likely to generate positive alpha and minimize harm. It also helps avoid being reactionary to the zigzags of U.S. policy these days. That strategy, which also avoids large positions, hasn't distinguished itself in these past few years when the Magnificent Seven tech stocks and a handful of other megacaps drove index performance—the fund, though, does have positions in Google, Apple, and Netflix. Still, Davis stands firm. The strategy can show its worth when investors are more concerned with downside risk protection. There are plenty of companies, though, that Davis feels differently about. He likes drug distributor  Cardinal Health CAH —peer to Barron's pick McKesson—because healthcare remains a safe haven and Cardinal has done particularly well—doubling the S&P 500 in recent years. Its earnings growth profile is good and ‘it's a solid company with large enough scale to have pricing power.' Also making the cut is Atmos Energy AIO Davis cites the natural-gas utility's relative momentum—the shares are up nearly 30% in the past year—and its defensive qualities. Although the fund shies away from fossil fuels, distributors like Atmos that are transparent, focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, do fit the bill. Davis owns staple General Mills GIS as well, again for its defensive qualities, including a 4% yield, and its size—big enough to exert pricing power. He does see only modest upside, but also ‘low downside, so it's a good fit for our portfolio.'” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- More Top Sustainable Stocks To Consider (2) This second article brings us back to the most likely favourite sector for ethical and sustainable investors. Its title is 5 Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy Amid Growing Market Demand by Nalak Das at Zacks and seen on finance.yahoo.com. Here's some of what Mr. Das says about his picks. “These five renewable stocks have strong long-term potential. These stocks have seen positive earnings estimate revisions in the last 60 days. Each of our picks currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). At the same time, these companies pay dividends regularly at an attractive rate. 1. The AES Corp.

NISource continues to add clean assets to its portfolio and retire coal-based units. [The company] is set to retire its 100% coal-generating sources between 2026 and 2028 and replace the production volumes with reliable and cleaner options at lower costs. NISource aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2030 from the 2005 levels. This initiative can help NISource lower the cost of operations by focusing on new and advanced assets.

CMS Energy Corporation (CMS): Free Stock Analysis Report.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- More Top Sustainable Stocks To Consider (3) This third article is an updated version of a February 20, 2025, story. It was featured in my Podcast: The Low-Carbon Stocks for Sustainable Investors. Its new title is Best Natural and Organic Food Stocks to Buy Now in 2025 by Sumit Singh. Again, it's from the great Zacks research group and found on finance.yahoo.com. Here are some quotes from the new article. “Companies like The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. HAIN, General Mills, Inc. GIS and Vital Farms, Inc. VITL are responding to the rising demand for organic, clean-label and ethically sourced foods. With consumers prioritizing transparency, sustainability and minimal processing, the market for natural foods continues to grow. Expanding farm networks, plant-based innovations and a focus on humane, eco-friendly production are shaping the industry's future… The global healthy foods market is expected to reach $2.26 trillion by 2035. 3 Natural Food Stocks to Watch 1. United Natural Foods, Inc. UNFI stands as a prominent player in the natural food sector, serving as one of the largest distributors of organic and natural products in North America. Through its extensive network, United Natural Foods supplies a vast array of products, including fresh produce, pantry staples, dairy alternatives and plant-based foods. With its diverse portfolio, the company caters to both retail giants and independent natural food stores, meeting the growing demand for cleaner, healthier eating options.

The company has committed to enhancing its supply-chain practices, reducing waste and supporting regenerative agriculture initiatives.

(SFM): Free Stock Analysis Report. 3. Beyond Meat, Inc. BYND has strategically realigned its product innovation to strengthen its appeal among health-conscious and natural-food-seeking consumers.

These products have earned accreditations from respected health organizations, including the American Heart Association, American Diabetes Association and Clean Label Project. This Zacks Rank #2 company has taken a proactive stance, using nutritional credentials and transparent messaging to reposition its products as a better-for-you choice.

Consider These Top ESG Stocks! ESG fund ownership offers great insight into the best stocks to own for potential returns. By Ron Robins, MBA Transcript & Links, Episode 143, November 29, 2024 Hello, Ron Robins here. Welcome to this podcast episode 143 published November 29, 2024, titled “Consider These Top ESG Stocks!” It's presented by Investing for the Soul. Investingforthesoul.com is your site for vital global ethical and sustainable investing mentoring, news, commentary, information, and resources.

Furthermore, I will reveal any investments I have in the investments mentioned herein. Additionally, quotes about individual companies are brief. Please go to this podcast's webpage for links to the articles and more company and stock information. ------------------------------------------------------------- Consider These Top ESG Stocks! (1) I'm beginning this podcast episode with a great article titled The Top Stocks Widely Owned by ESG Funds. It's by Frances Aufderheide and found on morningstar.com. Here are some quotes from the article. “We found five stocks owned exclusively by large-cap sustainable funds in the industrials, materials, and healthcare sectors. We describe them below, with insight from Morningstar analysts and Sustainalytics. Source: Morningstar Direct. Weights as of Oct. 31, 2024. Data as of Nov. 5, 2024. 1. Ecolab (ECL) Morningstar Rating: 2 Stars Morningstar ESG Risk Rating Assessment: 3 Globes Price/Fair Value: 1.14 Total Return Year to Date (Month-End): 24.75 ‘As the global leader in the cleaning and sanitation industry, Ecolab provides products that help its hospitality, foodservice, and life-sciences customers do laundry, wash dishes, maintain clean manufacturing environments, and ensure regulatory compliance. With unmatched scale and a solid razor-and-blade business model, Ecolab's competitive advantages are firmly in place.' ‘Ecolab's largest growth driver over the next decade will be the water business, which generates the majority of revenue in the industrial segment. During the quarter, water revenue grew 3% versus the prior-year quarter on an organic basis, excluding currency movements.' —Seth Goldstein, Morningstar Strategist 2. Agilent Technologies (A) Morningstar Rating: 4 Stars Morningstar ESG Risk Rating Assessment: 4 Globes Price/Fair Value: 0.91 Total Return Year to Date (Month-End): (5.76) Agilent provides instruments, software and services for laboratories. ‘Agilent offers differentiated technology that is protected by various intangible assets, including patents, copyrights, and trademarks. This portfolio of intellectual property and its innovation prowess in chosen fields keep competitors from directly copying its technology.' —Julie Utterback, Morningstar Senior Equity Analyst 3. Xylem (XYL) Morningstar Rating: 3 Stars Morningstar ESG Risk Rating Assessment: 3 Globes Price/Fair Value: 1.07 Total Return Year to Date (Month-End): 7.43 ‘Xylem is one of the leading water technology companies in the world.

Grainger distributes maintenance, repair, and operations products to more than 4.5 million customers. ‘We've raised our fair value estimate for narrow-moat-rated Grainger by 12% to $660 per share as we've become more confident of the firm's ability to maintain long-term operating margin above 14%. Even so, the current stock price remains well above our revised fair value estimate.' ‘Our confidence (of a narrow moat) is rooted in Grainger's ability to fend off competitive pressures from both new and existing players in the maintenance, repair, and operations market.' —Brian Bernard, Morningstar Senior Director 5. Veralto (VLTO) Morningstar Rating: None Morningstar ESG Risk Rating Assessment: 3 Globes Total Return Year to Date (Month-End): 24.56 Veralto provides technology solutions to improve the quality and reliability of water and product innovations through a suite of brands. ‘This tax-free spinoff is just the latest example of Danaher's business pruning.' —Julie Utterback, Morningstar Senior Equity Analyst” End quotes.

(2) The second article today reviews a company that is an old favorite of ethical and sustainable investors. The article is titled Buy First Solar Stock on the Dip. Solar Energy Will Be Too Good an Opportunity for President-Elect Trump to Pass Up. It's by James Brumley and found on fool.com. Here are a few of his comments on First Solar stock. “First Solar (FSLR) Investors suspect pro-oil President-elect Donald Trump could also prove unsupportive of renewable energy. In fact, most clean energy stocks are down since his Nov. 5 election on this very worry. First Solar has been no exception to the industrywide sell-off. This weakness, however, is also a buying opportunity for anyone interested in owning a piece of the solar panel maker, or in adding exposure to the solar industry as a whole. The solar power movement is too big and too well-developed for Donald Trump to bring to a halt now. First Solar is also well-positioned to sidestep one of the few meaningful actions the president-elect could take to disrupt the solar industry's growth. Solar is just too competitive to stop now Data gathered by Wood Mackenzie and reported by the U.S. Department of Energy indicates that utility-scale solar power is now in line with the cost of natural gas and coal-fired power… The irony? Largely because it's the cheapest means of adding utility-scale power production there, solar is growing like wildfire in several states like Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas that picked Trump to be president during the recently ended election cycle. To the extent voters picked Trump for economic reasons, they'll certainly appreciate cheaper electricity and its positive impact on the economy. The 2022 passage of the Inflation Reduction Act is admittedly fueling much of this growth, by offering taxpayers a tax credit of up to 30% of the cost of a solar power system. The IRA also incentivizes utility-scale solar power projects as well as the manufacturing of solar panels themselves… But tariffs? While unspecific as well as far from being certain (Trump argues the mere threat of tariffs is enough), First Solar is mostly immune to their impact anyway. Although the company requires some imported materials that may be subject to such tariffs, it's an American manufacturer mostly serving the North American market, where the company believes over 90% of its immediate revenue opportunities await… Data source: StockAnalysis.com. Chart by author. Give at least partial credit for this brewing growth to First Solar's Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) photovoltaic panels. Although they make its design and production processes more complicated and more costly than that of more conventional silicon panels, this technology proves more durable while at the same time delivering more power. Utility-scale buyers are increasingly seeing these high-performance panels as an investment rather than an expense, as they further lower the effective per-kilowatt cost of solar power… The market's overestimating the risk, and underestimating First Solar Now all of a sudden First Solar's stumble since early November and its much bigger 37% pullback from June's peak looks like an entry opportunity. The analyst community agrees, anyway. Undeterred by political rhetoric and handwringing, most of them still consider First Solar stock a strong buy, sporting a consensus price target of $280.79. That's almost 50% above the stock's present price.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Consider These Top ESG Stocks! (3) This next article, though from Australia, might interest many investors outside of that wonderful country. It's titled The Ethical Investor: These three ESG award-winning ASX companies show how it's done. It's by Eddy Sunarto found on ntnews.com.au. Here are some of what Mr. Sunarto says about his picks. “1. Orica (ASX:ORI) was named Australia's most sustainable company in the 2024 Australian Financial Review Sustainability Leaders awards, taking home top honours for its significant environmental impact. The company, a global leader in commercial explosives, was recognised for its groundbreaking emissions abatement project at its Kooragang Island plant near Newcastle, NSW. This project is the largest of its kind in the Australian chemicals sector, reducing emissions by 45% at the site and cutting national chemical industry emissions by 11%... The judges believe Orica's efforts have not only addressed environmental challenges but have also driven economic growth, injecting millions into the local economy while future-proofing critical manufacturing capabilities for industries such as mining, agriculture and healthcare. The company's commitment to sustainability is also reflected in its ambitious climate targets, aiming for net zero emissions by 2050. 2. Sims Metal Management (ASX:SGM) an Australian-based global recycling company with a 106-year history, was named the most sustainable corporation of 2024 by Corporate Knights, topping its Global 100 list. Known for its role in the circular economy, Sims has been integral in reducing carbon emissions by recycling metals like steel, copper, and aluminium – which are crucial in industries like electric vehicles, wind turbines and solar panels. In 2023 alone, the company's efforts saved 13 million tonnes of CO₂, equivalent to removing nearly three million cars from the road, according to its reports. Sims' approach to sustainability extends beyond recycling, with ambitious goals to transition to renewable energy in its operations by 2025 and achieve net-zero emissions by 2050… The company is investing in advanced technologies, like automated sorting systems and AI robots, to improve the efficiency of its recycling processes. Although these innovations may not always attract the same attention as large renewable energy projects, CEO Stephen Mikkelsen said that metal recycling plays a vital role in decarbonising industries and contributing to a sustainable future. 3. Australian Vintage (ASX:AVG) won the 2024 Global Drinks Intel ESG Award for Sustainable Wine Producer, which was announced in September. The award recognised the company's strong commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, despite current challenges within the Australian wine industry. The company had earlier achieved B Corp certification in February, making it one of only three Australian wine companies with this status. Australian Vintage's ESG strategy focuses on three key pillars: 'Thriving People', 'Nurture Nature', and 'Meaningful Growth'. The company said all these are supported by measurable, verifiable performance… The judges praised Australian Vintage for not just making ESG commitments, but for quantifying and achieving real, impactful results.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Additional Articles of Interest 1.

Is having a big crowd the only way to have a great event? Not really. You can have a great event even with a small number of people. What matters more is the quality of the people attending.

It's important to focus on the people who will be most invested in the event and get the most out of it. Have you ever wondered how to make things work when they don't go as planned? What if the key is in how you handle tough situations? In this episode, I talk to Lynne Fiscelli who uses the Referral Mastery System really well.

Low inventory, high interest, commission lawsuits and affordability (or lack thereof). Real estate is getting more challenging by the day, leaving consumers and agents alike wondering: what the heck is going on with the market?   There's a ton of uncertainty and fear right now, and if left unchecked, it leads to panic and ultimately, paralysis. Agents who combat the fear with communication, market knowledge and expert advice will win in this market. If we're able to confidently guide people forward at a time of great uncertainty, we'll have a client for life, and plenty of referrals too.   What vital information do we need to be sharing with consumers right now? How do we help them navigate this challenging market?   In this episode, I'm joined by the CEO of Keeping Current Matters, David Childers.

How do we separate panic-mongering news from insightful information?   -Fear = Forget Everything And Run or Face Everything and Rise  How do we bridge the gap between paralysis and action?   Guest Bio   David Childers is a featured thought leader in the real estate industry widely recognized for his expertise, leadership, and unwavering commitment to keeping agents well informed about the ever-changing dynamics of the real estate market.

Throwing events and creating memorable experiences is a guaranteed way to get leads for our real estate businesses. But the key to a successful event is not to make it about real estate at all.   The last thing we want to do is make people uncomfortable by talking shop - or worse asking for a referral. The amazing thing is, even if the event isn't about real estate, people will refer us if we make it memorable.   How do we create a calendar of flagship events? How do we learn from past events to make the next one better?   In this episode, Owner and Managing Partner at Rice Properties Group, Lindsay Rice shares her success and lessons from her client events - from the Summer Sip and Swirl to the 5k BBQ Fun Run.   It's now obvious that we don't have to get up at the event to have a speech about real estate. -Lindsay Rice   Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode     -Improving the flow of your events  How do we limit guest confusion from the moment they arrive to the moment they leave?   -A mental health event  How did Lindsay turn making a difference into a successful event?   -An accidental dinner, a wonderful gathering  How did an unplanned event turn into a huge referral source?   Guest Bio Lindsay Rice is the Owner and Managing Partner at Rice Properties Group.
