Aurora shareholders benefit and increase their capital | Seeking Alpha

It is well known that thanks to Aurora Cannabis (OTCQX:ACBFF) many investors have earned significant sums of money because they invested in shares and in fact many people expect that the one that is established as the third largest cannabis company in the world will go beyond the market capitalization, just behind Canopy and Tilray.

Now, it is well known that Aurora has just given a bonus to its shareholders and the value of the same increase more than 1,000% after gaining access to public markets.
