Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
Good
afternoon and welcome to another episode of Investorideas.com
"Potcast" featuring cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as
insights from thought leaders and experts.
In
today’s podcast InvestorIdeas interviews Jason Wilson, the Cannabis Expert for ETFMG, which
offers a full suite of cannabis ETFs for investors, including the first and
largest cannabis-focused ETF: MJ, the ETFMG Alternative Harvest ETF as well
as MJUS, MJIN and MJXL. Wilson discussed each of these different Cannabis ETFs
in more detail, what trends are being noticed in both the US and the Global
cannabis space as well as which areas of the industry are of most interest to
investors today.
With over 15 years of experience in
the asset management, finance and structured product space, Mr. Wilson has a
track record of bringing hard-to-access asset classes to market. He has held
leadership and senior positions at several leading financial institutions.
Most recently, Jason was Senior Vice
President at INFOR Financial Inc. INFOR is a leading boutique investment bank
based in Toronto, Canada that has worked in connection with a number of
companies in the legal cannabis industry, including acting as advisor to Canopy
Growth Corporation in connection with entering into its strategic relationship
with Constellation Brands. He also worked at the investment banking divisions
of Société Générale, France’s third largest bank, and at CIBC, one of the five
largest banks in Canada.
While at Société Générale and CIBC,
Jason provided asset managers and financial institutions with various capital
raising, financing and risk mitigation solutions and strategies. Jason has an
LLB from the University of Western Ontario. Prior to completing his university
studies, Jason was a member of the Canadian Forces and is a recipient of the
Gulf of Kuwait Medal, awarded for his engagement in direct combat during the
Gulf War in 1991.
When asked about each o ETFMG’s
cannabis ETF’s Wilson commented, “we launched MJ, the ETFMG Alternative Harvest ETF back in
2017, which was the first US listed cannabis focussed ETF. Since then we’ve
added three more. We have one that focuses just on US operators, which trades
as MJUS, we also have one that provides 2X Upside
Exposure (MJXL) and one that provides 2X Inverve
Exposure (MJIN) to the Global Cannabis Industry. Those
four cannabis focussed ETFs offer investors the full global and domestic
optionality on the cannabis industry.”
When asked about how current
politics continue to affect US stock prices and speculation surrounding the US
cannabis industry, Wilson commented “we’re seeing momentum on the Federal level
stalled, not because of issues of partisanship, but instead mostly on a
disagreement on the level of reform that is necessary. So it’s less a question
of getting enough support from both sides of the aisle to get legalization but
instead how far do some of the social programs go and things of that nature.
That being said, we've still seen a lot of interest in US stocks at a retail
and private equity level.”
Wilson continued, “If you look at
the US MSO’s as an example, we can see that before the election last year some
of their stocks were drifting sideways and down, but having the Democrats
complete the full sweep really brought a lot of optimism to the space and saw
their prices rally very strongly, really until February or March. Then the big
expectation was that this was the first time we would see a Cannabis Reform
bill tabled in the Senate. To have Schumer bring out the COA kind of took the wind out of the sails
because his draft bill wasn't really even so much a draft bill as it was a
talking paper and beyond that, was so overreaching and extensive that it was
dead on arrival. One of the more difficult things from the Republican side was
the 25% Federal Excise tax. That was the first pin prick in the cannabis
balloon and you’ve seen stocks represent that since then. We have seen other
pieces of legislation proposed, for instance from Nancy Mace, which was a very sensible piece of
legislation. The push and pull isn’t between Democrats and Republicans as per
weather or not cannabis should be legalized, but instead the push and pull is
between how extensive is the reform and right now you have the Senate Majority
Leader pushing for very extensive reform, so much so that you’re not going to
get those extra Republican seats necessary to drive any legislation forward.”
Wilson went on to discuss some of
the current trends being noticed and how these differ in both the domestic US
market and Global cannabis space as well as what he expects to have the largest
impact on the industry over the next few months.
