Do You Have These Top Marijuana Stocks On Your Watchlist In May?

In recent trading, many marijuana stocks have started to build more market momentum. This current upward push for most cannabis stocks has been long overdue after coming off a 3-month downtrend. Yet during this downtrend, all was not lost for the cannabis industry and investors. For one when cannabis stocks were trading at lower share prices, this created a big buying opportunity. Next was many leading cannabis companies were able to further expand and grow their business.

For instance, many top marijuana companies have grown through mergers and acquisitions. This has made companies like Truelieve Cannabis who recently acquired Harvest Health & Recreation Inc. one of the largest MSO companies in the space. More recently many top marijuana stocks are starting to release their earnings reports. Most reports have come away with positive results which have added some positive sentiment to the sector. So far this positive sentiment has helped create a boost in trading.

Now investors and shareholders are still a bit skeptical of how long this rise will continue. This is due to a large amount of uncertainty that was created over the last 3 months. There is no official way to know how long this upward momentum will last. However, as the cannabis sector continues to rise shareholders will be looking to take profit before the next drop in trading.

Yet during the first week of May, cannabis stocks had a little a slow start and did not rise at first. During this time a bit more volatility entered the sector. As of now, marijuana stocks are on the move and investors are keeping watch to see what will unfold for the company.
