Kudos to the NAACP for innovating its economic impact and revenue models. Such leverage of the equity markets will incentivize privately held companies as well. I won't mind investing in this ETF myself.

I'm not sure what makes me more cynical: That the company didn't tell airlines and pilots about MCAS, or that they trained pilots to use the new system on an iPad.​
