It's easy enough to plug most of the sin stock categories into this ancient list: Gluttony could refer to alcohol and tobacco stocks, wrath could refer to weapons stocks, and greed could refer to gambling stocks. Adult entertainment companies can also fall under the umbrella of sin stocks, and they fit nicely into the lust category.Other stocks and sectors can be considered sinful too — depending on your religion, your politics, and your personal moral and ethical values.
And if alcohol is sinful, maybe marijuana is, too, if it's being used for recreational and not medicinal purposes. The stock of a company that produces opiates could be considered a sin stock because of all the people who have died or become addicted — though of course, these drugs have enormous benefits too.
Even sin stocks' negative connotations can work to their advantage. Certain institutional investors — especially those handling funds for religious or academic groups — often shy away from notorious or controversial businesses. That can lead to a particular sin stock being undervalued and a good bargain.Even if you have no moral or ethical qualms about investing in sin stocks, you should consider their potential financial drawbacks before adding them to your portfolio.
