AdvisorShares' Pure Cannabis ETF: $YOLO (NYSE)
Trading Date: 04/18
Holdings:
The holdings of this ETF were unknown at the time of publishing. As cannabis is still classified a federally illegal substance in the United States, and the ETF will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange, there will be no "MSO's", or multi-state operators, held by this ETF.
Noah Hamman, CEO of AdvisorShares, stated on Twitter:
Take a look at the prospectus, we lay out the type of companies we can invest in, we are starting with a set group and will expand over time. Just getting to this point with a custodian was a big milestone.
Edit: Here are $YOLO's holdings.
