Could The Cannabis Sector Recover In October?
Are the top marijuana stocks a wise choice for October investing? Many important cannabis equities have hit new lows in this month’s trade, mirroring the general market’s decline. In general, the price of Canadian marijuana equities has fallen precipitously this year. Canadian marijuana companies saw a dramatic value fall over the first half of 2022. One of the first parts of the marijuana industry to benefit from any momentum may be the Canadian cannabis market.
The US federal cannabis legalization delays have had a substantial impact on market value, and LPs are currently having difficulty turning a profit in Canada. The fact that Canadian cannabis businesses are listed on prominent US stock exchanges attracts investors. Because of this, any industry development can start with Canadian cannabis companies before expanding to the rest of the market. For your October list, let’s take a closer look at 3 of the top marijuana stocks in Canada.

Canopy Growth Corporation
Canopy Growth has built a strong reputation as one of Canada’s top producers of cannabis and products derived from it. At the present time, the company’s hemp- and cannabis-based goods are mostly sold in the US, Canada, and Germany. CBD alcoholic beverages will be offered in the US starting in 2021 as a result of a partnership between Canopy and Southern Glazers Wine & Spirits. In addition, to increase the variety of products it distributes in Canada, Canopy acquired Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc., a premium cannabis business. The business has unveiled Whisl, a cutting-edge CBD vape that can help you maintain control of your mood all day long.
The company published its financial 2023 first-quarter results on August 5. The information shows that the $110 million in net revenues for the first quarter of FY2023, when compared to the same period in FY2022, decreased by 19%. Due to a planned shift in the company’s focus on higher margins, premium, and mainstream items, value flower sales in the Canadian recreational cannabis market fell. This decline was the cause of the $66 million total global cannabis net sales in the first quarter of FY2023, which were 29% lower than the same period the previous year. The non-cash fair value adjustments and a $1,725 million impairment of goodwill were the main causes of the $2,088 million net loss in the first quarter of FY2023, which was an increase of $2,478 million over the first quarter of FY2022.
The corporation wants to strengthen its position in Canada’s high-end industries for the fiscal year 2023. The company also intends to offer its products abroad, particularly to Canadian leisure enterprises. Excluding costs associated with the United States, the company forecasts that these operations will generate positive Adjusted EBITDA in FY2024.
