Higher learning: a market high

Twitter icon

In case you haven’t noticed, the legal marijuana movement is creating quite the buzz on Wall Street. Since the start of 2016, a number of the largest pot companies by market cap have seen their share prices rise by more than 1,000%.

It has to do with a combination of rapidly growing sales, a consistent shift in the public’s opinion on cannabis, and a “marijuana first” expected out of Canada later this year.

But it’s not just sales growth that has investors excited. It’s the shift in consumer opinion toward cannabis.  With the public strongly behind the idea of legalization, investors expect sales growth throughout North America to continue climbing.

Investing in Canadian marijuana stocks two years ago would have been a dream for most investors.

Recently there has been a decline in the market, almost 20% of it occurred during the past month. This shift was triggered by the announced restrictions on cannabis packaging, and more importantly, news that the Cannabis Act will still face its Senate vote in June. However, buying Canadian marijuana stocks today could still provide substantial returns to investors. These stocks could be undervalued relative to future earnings. Investors should still be wary, though, as there is still a large amount of uncertainty surrounding Canadian marijuana stocks.
