    As a Fidelity customer who uses their index funds, I would like to know which managers approved this fuckup on their part so I know who to blame when I move to Vanguard over the course of the year. Morningstar needs to take a mallet to their ratings over this.

    It’s not their play money they fucked with – ITS MINE.

      That’s not how fund managers work. They make money they charge you. They lose money they charge you. They don’t make money they charge you. Oh and then there’s the standing charge for the service. YOLO.

      Why would this even impact you if you’re using their index funds? Twitter isn’t even public so it can’t be in any index

      In their defence, it was a relatively small investment of only $19m. I guess the story is that this must be an indication of how other, larger, investors might also be looking at X.
