I would invest in a weed ETF. How would you even go about setting that up? Let me know when it's available!

Just invest in Yum Brands (NYSE:YUM) and GameStop (NYSE:GME) as a proxy.

Ha! As a similar investment strategy I've heard of folks investing in Scotts Miracle Grow. But also heard from a guy in the grow op industry that no one uses their products so it's mostly hype.

I'm trying to build a tool for analyzing cannabis stocks and choosing an investment strategy. But in the meantime I've got a Google Sheet I'm using to track them - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X2cwnwmzgdRfuy0yiPo6...

Would love your feedback! And happy to answer any questions about it.

Put in my info. I'm doing a little bit of research on setting up an ETF. It seems like there's quite a bit of paperwork and cost involved. How close are you guys?

Huge understatement.

Among other things, you just need to prepare one of these simple forms and get it approved by the SEC...

A few tens of thousands of people searching doesn't even come close to the level of demand to make such a thing worthwhile.

how many would you need to make it worthwhile?

I'm curious, how'd you compile the list of stocks?

I found a site that listed all the stock tickers and threw that in Google Sheets. But I forgot the exact site. Definitely missing a few stocks (especially Canadian ones) at this point..
