Hi (Fund manager at brokerage), 

I am very opposed to Musk’s de-funding of cancer research, as I work in healthcare. 

I am participating in the #teslatakedown social media movement. 

Post divorce, I have $X (dollar amount) in Vanguard, and am re-allocating all mutual funds that contain Tesla shares. 

I would like to discourage Schwab from investing in Tesla not just because it is a toxic brand, but because their self-driving capabilities are false, in addition, if 50% of Chicago switched to electric cars, the grid would collapse. 

Schwab has the following, per ChatGPT research

• Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund® (SWTSX): As of February 28, 2025, TSLA constitutes 1.41% of this fund’s assets, amounting to approximately $388.5 million. ​schwabassetmanagement.com
• Schwab U.S. Large-Cap ETF (SCHX): This exchange-traded fund aims to replicate the performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Large-Cap Total Stock Market Index, which includes Tesla among its holdings. ​schwabassetmanagement.com

Additionally, Schwab provides access to specialized funds that focus on Tesla:​

• Simplify Volt TSLA Revolution ETF (TESL): This fund seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in Tesla and related technologies. ​schwab.com+2schwab.com+2schwab.com+2
• Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X Shares (TSLL): Designed to deliver twice the daily performance of Tesla’s stock, this leveraged fund is suitable for investors seeking amplified exposure to Tesla’s movements. ​schwab.com
  
  
  I am working with the portfolio managers at Vanguard and told them that I will switch $X (dollar amount) to Charles Schwab from Vanguard if they dump the stock. 
  
  Per research, it seems like the portfolio managers are:
  Christopher Bliss, Ferian Juwono, Sabya Sinha, Jeremy Brown
  
  Would it be possible to forward this email onto them?
  
  I know $X is a drop in the bucket, but I represent many liberal progressives, and this is the action I can take to help cancer research and help refugees. This is the small bit of influence I have, and this is a warmer alternative to protesting outside a Tesla dealership. 
  
  Kind Regards,
