MJJ ETF Has Likely Bottomed and Could Be an Excellent Value Buy at These Levels

Purpose Marijuana Opportunities Fund (NEO: MJJ) is Canada’s first actively managed Cannabis ETF which invests in all facets of the global marijuana industry including cultivation, extraction, retail and even financing. The fund also has the ability to invest in private companies and initial public offerings (IPO). MJJ ETF is managed by Greg Taylor, the Chief Investment Officer of Purpose Investments.

The company’s website describes Taylor as a “data-driven manager with a focus on managing risk through active-trading strategies.” Taylor specializes in “finding and exploiting pockets of volatility in the market to drive returns.”

Over the past 15 years, Greg Taylor has spent time managing the assets of both mutual and pension funds while working at Aurion Capital Management. Taylor has received multiple awards for his portfolio management which includes the BrendanWood International “Top Gun” award.

The Purpose Marijuana ETF was created to offer investors exposure to the burgeoning global cannabis industry, allowing them to tap into the huge growth potential of the sector while limiting the volatility commonly associated with pot stocks. Taylor uses an active selection process to invest in cannabis stocks with attractive growth and valuation metrics while focusing on marijuana markets that have a positive regulatory environment. The fund manager also employs a disciplined risk management strategy and has the ability to tactically use cash as a defensive tool.

Purpose Marijuana Opportunities Fund has a modest management fee of 0.75% and is eligible for the following account types:
