Yes investing is bad. While it is ethically bad so are most other things under capitalism. It was exploitation that allowed Engels to fund Marx who in turn wrote Kapital. That exploitation is wrong but it was what enabled a plethora of Socialist literature to be written. So as long as the money is being used in service of establishing communism then I would argue that it's net neutral or positive. Not comprehensive and I'm willing to hear other takes, but this would be my general view on the subject.
