It seems that most marijuana stocks have been able to sustain their current momentum. Now throughout January, there have been moments where the sector did decline. But overall the sector has looked much better for marijuana stock investors. Still, the big focus is set on several factors that could dictate the trading for the rest of the year. This year we will see several attempts to establish comprehensive cannabis reform. So far there are 2 bills set in motion one is for cannabis banking and the other is to end cannabis prohibtion.

A good amount of people feel that the potential passing of federal reform will lead to a possible run for marijuana stocks.

This expansion can be in the form of new products, dispensaries or packaging, and cultivation facilities. When investors see this progress despite cannabis being federally illegal it allows them to feel more confident for the future.
