a musical accompaniment to go with the news. crank it up! ----------------------- Here's Why Cannabis Stocks Are Getting A Boost 3:45 pm ET July 28, 2020 (Benzinga) Print Several cannabis companies such as Canopy Growth Corp. (NYSE: CGC), Tilray Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY) and Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NYSE: ACB) kicked off the week with an uptick in their respective stock prices. Alan Brochstein, founder of 420 Investor and New Cannabis Ventures, says there are "two factors" that led to this, citing Aphria Inc. (NASDAQ: APHA). Aphria Earnings: "First, Aphria rallied yesterday ahead of tomorrow's report," he said. "I pointed this to perhaps shifting sentiment." Canada-based Aphria is expected to show improved profitability in its fourth-quarter earnings report, which will be released on Wednesday. Aphria shares traded higher by 9.2% on Monday and remains Cantor Fitzgerald's "top pick" among Canadian LPs. MSO Breakouts: "Second, there is a lot of interest being generated by technical breakouts in the U.S. by MSOs (multi-state operators)," Brochstein said. The share prices of Green Thumb Industries Inc. (OTCMKTS:GTBIF), Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (OTCMKTS:TCNNF) and Curaleaf Holdings Inc. (OTCMKTS:CURLF) also spiked. "GTI, Trulieve and Curaleaf have all posted 52-week highs, while Cresco has moved to a new high since before the March sell-off." Chicago-based Cresco Labs reached a high of $5.12 per share on Tuesday. GTI reached a 52-week high of $13.67 while Trulieve reached $16.75. Curaleaf's 52-week high was $8.50 on Tuesday afternoon. The U.S. cannabis market is expected to grow from $12 billion in 2019 to $31 billion by 2024, according to analysts. The Canadian cannabis market will likely expand from $1.6 billion in 2019 to $6.2 billion by 2024. © 2020 Benzinga.com. Benzinga does not provide investment advice. All rights reserved.
I've resisted the urge to hot box my portfolio with cannabis stocks but this does seem to be the way the world is going. I doubt we'll see anything like the returns tobacco companies made for the last century, due to regulation and taxation, but it's an addicting product so should produce a reliable profit like the colas, tobacco, video games, etc.
lest ye think i missed the hot box reference, no i did not. you must've burned a few back in the day.
I got back into TLRY yesterday (and MJ), TLRY making moves premarket, up 10% after being up 22% yesterday. I tried to do pot stocks 2 years ago, now I think they are all primed to move as momentum globally has increased significantly.
Still rising! I hope some others are in this. Tilray shares up 10% on distribution deal with Grow Pharma in U.K. (NASDAQ:TLRY) | Seeking Alpha
Wow, tilray is a freight train, up 27%, setting new 52 week highs, and breakout! My post above on 1/28 it was at $28
I got out of most of my pot stocks on the way down this am. Once they settle I will get back in. I was in it for momentum on approvals, mergers, US regulation etc and the reddit group just ruined this stuff.
I don’t know if “Reddit ruined it” as much as media instilling fear in people that Reddit likes weed now. I don’t get why more bag holders in weed would lower the price.
Just venting, making a stock run that hard and that fast, it has to retrace. No they didnt ruin it. I will get back in but want to see the dust settle.
Understandable. This isn't something new, though. It's just newly covered by the big wigs. Stocks (especially cheap ones) have always had crazy pumps like this, even before GME. Making a stock run that hard and that fast has always existed, but now it's just being all credited to reddit.
