Default Oklahoma, a great investment.

I'm constantly amazed at how often our state has been mentioned as a bedrock of economic practices gone right.

I was doing some research on some Oklahoma investments and happened upon this.

ADDING and REPLACING OOK Advisors Launches First Oklahoma-Based Exchange-Traded Fund | Reuters

It's Oklahoma's very own exchange traded fund!

Quote:
"This fund is one of the first of its kind," said Keith Geary, chairman of OOK
Advisors. "Investors now have a vehicle to invest in several Oklahoma-based
public companies all at once through OOK."
Adding to the momentum was Kramer from "Mad Money" hosting a show from The University of Oklahoma. It's such a fun time to be an Oklahoman.

Invest in Oklahoma!

great, so state based companies can get involved with the newyork pump and dump schemes.....


maybe we can have a unrealistic housing and commercial boom and then catch up to the rest of the country.

You obviously don't know what you are talking about so don't invest in it. You really don't have a clue what this is about, do you?

Might as well just invest in an energy ETF. About 89% of the fund is energy companies. Much cheaper and much more diversification in an energy etf.

Really never understood the point of these ETF's. I can see if the companies in the state did 100% of their biz in-state.... but they don't. Seems a little gimicky to me.
