Marijuana Life Sciences Index ETF (HMMJ-T) more investors are using exchange-traded funds to zero in on particular segments of the market. Prerna Chandak at Mackenzie Financial as saying: "There is an ETF for just about any trend at this point -- on-line retail, gender diversity, video gaming, health and wellness, robotics. The list just goes on and on." The question is whether this is a gimmick or a smart strategic play in an investor's portfolio. Graeme Egan, head of CastleBay Wealth Management, a portfolio manager and fee-only financial planning company in Vancouver, has mixed feelings about the merits of thematic ETFs in an investment portfolio. Mr. Egan believes there can be a sort of gimmicky rationale behind the decision of some investors to hold thematic ETFs, akin to jumping on a trending bandwagon but, if carefully chosen and researched, there may be a limited place for thematic ETFs in some investors' portfolios. Horizons ETFs Management recently launched its proprietary Horizons Marijuana Life Sciences Index ETF. This involves a basket of North American publicly listed life-sciences companies with significant marijuana-related business.
