- Rationale = Cowen Inc. was previously a publicly-traded diversified financial services company which provided services to the cannabis industry. However, Cowen was acquired by publicly-traded Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD Bank). As a result, Cowen's shares were delisted and the company ceased to be a reporting issuer. Given that Cowen is no longer publicly-traded, the company no longer qualifies for inclusion.

Description |
1B | Yes | ETF - Cannabis-Themed | The Subversive Cannabis ETF (Ticker: LGLZ) is an actively-managed fund that invests in companies that it believes will thrive as the legal marijuana industry expands. "LGLZ is a call to action, not a prediction." It believes that some federal action will afford cannabis banking and interstate commerce within the next few years, which it believes will trigger institutional capital flooding the market and a massive tide for cannabis valuations. The fund's constituents include companies that derive at least 50% of their net revenue from legal THC-related sales, with a particular focus on companies with cash flow from operations. | |
