ACT Factset Analytics Insight
The ticker and investment strategy will change on Nov. 1, 2020. The fund will switch vices, from alcohol, cannabis, and tobacco to alcohol and tobacco, food and beverage and gaming. ACT is the first ETF of its kind. Contrary to popular ESG themes, ACT focuses solely on vice activities—it invests in US-listed companies that generate at least 50% of their revenue from alcohol-, cannabis-, or tobacco-related businesses. The fund’s active manager has broad discretion in which companies to select. The only notable constraint is that the fund must invest at least 25% of its assets in the consumer staples sector. Otherwise, ACT can invest across the industry spectrum and will generally select securities from the agriculture, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, real estate, retail, and financial sectors. In addition to cannabis business activities, companies involved in the production and use of hemp and cannabinoids are included. Only legal activities are included in the fund.
