I wish there is a mechanism in which investors get to vote on the underlying shares when they invest in funds managed by the asset managers like BlackRock, Vanguard, Fidelity etc., Currently, it is the other way around. Investors give money to asset managers and they get to vote on the underlying shares.

My employer, a financial services firm in New York, blocks both gitlab and bitbucket due to their free private repos. Even though they allowed github until now, I am worried that they will soon start blocking that as well! :(

"Free trading" here is a bit misleading. Only the first 100 trades are free.

Re:Fidelity Introduces Zero Expense Ratio Index Funds

Hmmm... why? What is so different between trading 100 shares vs 1,000 shares vs 100,000 shares? Trading is automated enough that a linear cost is not justified.

The cost to run an etf does not (or at least should not) increase with Assets Under Management (AUM). So if anything the providers should be charging a fixed fee for the whole index fund instead of charging based on the AUM.
