Top Cannabis Stocks To Watch Before Q2 2022
As the market continues to show a downtrend in the market are you looking for marijuana stocks to buy in 2022? Many investors are currently looking for ways to capitalize on this downtrend. One area that’s been severely impacted by current trading in 2022 is Canadian cannabis stocks. Since February of 2021, the cannabis sector has experienced substantial declines that have continued into the first quarter of 2022. For many years Canadian cannabis companies were the industry leaders in cannabis.
But last year US MSOs began producing better earnings results and much more revenue. One factor that has hurt Canadian cannabis companies is the inability to be fully involved in the fast-growing American cannabis market. Since the US has yet to legalize cannabis federally the borders remain closed to top Canadian cannabis companies. Because of this most leading Canadian cannabis companies have entered the US through strategic acquisitions that place them in the American market.
Some have established CBD sales in the state’s others have acquired US beverage companies and vertically integrated US companies. In general, Canadian cannabis companies have also established themselves in the global markets. At the present time, many analysts are forecasting the cannabis industry will more than double in size in the next five years. By 2027 legal cannabis sales are expected to reach $47.3 billion in North America according to Statista.
