Welcome to the forum.
Though it’s sadly not made clear before you post, each stock request post needs to be limited to one ETF or stock. This is because the voting system helps Freetrade staff decide which stocks are most wanted by users. Having more than one instrument in a given post bypasses the voting system.
As per the article, Forest Road Acquisition Corp (FRX) is a big part of the merger and it has already been requested. I suggest you vote for that one now, as it does exist. If it’s added before the merger happens, owners of that stock should get the new one.
I’m not sure what’s going on with GW Pharma. It’s been requested in the past and that request was converted to a stock discussion. This happens only once a stock has been added. you’ll see a stock discussion thread about it if you search the forum. It might be worth messaging support to see what’s going on.
