VWIAX and VWINX were very early Vanguard funds operated by Wellington of Boston. it’s historically a good conservative income generator from bonds and stocks. Very few stock funds are rated buys here at this time, but I’ll be rebuying it as the stick bear market plays out. For now bonds are a safer shorter term bet.

Don't you think ESG has played a role in reducing both VWIAX and VWINX funds. I was invested in both heavily for 7-8 years thinking I would kick back during retirement with these...but changed my mind due to their ESG agenda which I believe hurt my financial goals.
