    Horizon's Marijuana Fund (HMMJ.TSX) performed well for me, but they're a Canadian outfit. Nicely diversified acrid the North American industry.

    I sold out about a year ago, but in 18 months before that they'd gone from CAD9 to CAD22. Think they're about CAD17 now.

    .......interesting research on the National Programme this morning. Purely as an Analgesic, medical marijuana rated as giving very little (if any) benefit. 23 out of 24 participants suffering from chronic pain experienced less than 30% improvement in pain symptoms. I'll stick with the Tramadol I think.
    Have a Gr8day.

    think it depends on the strain of weed you use. just like pills they are developed for different illness.

    Today, chronic pain affects more people than cancer, heart disease, and diabetes combined. Chronic pain is the most common cause of long-term disability in the United States.

    The researchers found that participants preferred indica strains for pain management, sedation, and sleep while they would opt for sativa
    strains to improve energy and mood

    Thailand’s Unlikely Embrace of Cannabis


    https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...d=premium-asia

    It’s not the only nation rethinking cannabis. Malaysia and Laos are considering legalizing medical use of the crop, and the Philippines’ lower legislature has passed a medical cannabis measure

    Surprising the buying support helping these scumbags unload their pre-ipo shares at multiple bag gains.

    Sigh, is this what share investing in NZ new ipo’s has devolved to? Disgraceful, NZX has become a willing vehicle for the clever and informed to get rich at the advantage of the ill informed and inexperienced.

    No product, no revenue, no profit … just a cool story dressed up in a promotional prospectus (even with all the ‘you could lose all your money caveats’) sucking in the inexperienced, filling the coffers of the very experienced.

    It’s like NZX is trying to move on the VC market? I disagree with Snowy, because the investors this type of listing appeals to are mainly those who have none of the skills required to figure out whether it will ever make them some money!
