Invest in the High Growth Marijuana Industry:

The marijuana industry is growing fast. Dare I say, like a weed.

Over the last 2 years, a large majority of marijuana stocks have risen by a triple-digit or quadruple-digit percentage. Within the U.S., despite the fact that 29 states having legalized cannabis, the federal government still maintains a Schedule I classification on the drug, rendering it illegal federally speaking.

An investment in this industry has higher risk potential but also higher reward potential. Instead of trying to pick out the winners amid a flood of publicly traded marijuana stocks, it may be smarter at this time to invest in a BUNCH of marijuana stocks all at once.

Why?

This will spread out your investment risk so you’re not dependent on the success or failure of any single marijuana venture for your own financial well being. The best way to do this: by investing in an ETF.

An ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) = a bunch of stocks all from the same industry or a similar category, represented by one single investment, or ‘index fund’.

• $MJ Marijuana ETF — Companies in this marijuana fund include: Canopy Growth Corp, Hydropothecary Corp, Cronos Group, Aurora Cannabis among others.
