As was pointed out last week, TIAA-CREF holds Sinclair Broadcasting stocks in their Equity Index and CREF Stock funds. They have been asked my many to sell these shares, but I just spoke with a representative that said they are not going to sell the Sinclair stock because they want to be "apolitical." I am moving my investments in the Equity Index and CREF Stock Funds to other funds, and I strongly encourage others to do the same. Luckily, we have plenty of alternatives within TIAA-CREF, and if TIAA-CREF will not budge, then at least we can force them to adjust their portfolios.
If you want to call TIAA-CREF and complain, their number is 1-800-842-2776.
