2 Top Canadian Marijuana Stocks To Add To Your September Watchlist

A good amount of marijuana stocks are still dealing with the up and down trading that’s taking place. Now even with some cannabis stocks showing good entry levels investors want to see a bigger rise in the sector. From November 2020 through the first month and a half of 2021, many cannabis stocks were able to see a consistent climb in trading.

During this time many cannabis companies would see nice recoveries after dipping in the market. In fact, at this time some marijuana stocks would dip and recover to new highs. Yet right after the middle of February, the entire sector began to lose a large amount of its upward momentum. From this downtrend, many cannabis companies also lost the consistency they once had. But even with the market side of the sector down the progress outside of the market for most of the companies continued to take place.

Yet this progress has not resonated in the market the same way it used to before mid-February. Now it seems that the only real catalyst for the sector is ending cannabis prohibition. When news is released about further progress on federal cannabis reform it most times has helped some cannabis stocks climb.

Yet there is no way to know for sure but hopes remain high for the future trading of marijuana stocks and the growth of the industry. For now many are keeping watch to see what changes will occur as more people are looking to invest in cannabis.
