Some analysts believe if futures can keep climbing so will marijuana stocks. As well some cannabis stocks have been able to recover as well as other pot stocks.

This still leaves a chance to find marijuana stocks to buy lower entry points. Due to how volatile the cannabis sector can be pot stocks move up and down in price frequently. When this happens it gives investors a chance to make a nice return in a shorter period. Those who like to trade cannabis stocks know that the short term is where most of the trading action happens.

Yet some people are looking for cannabis companies that have more potential in the long term. Much of the long-term cannabis investing is based on the preparation of federal cannabis reform and state-level cannabis legislation. Currently, with the Democrats being in favor of proper cannabis legislation 2021 may be the year the cannabis industry starts reaching its full potential.

In addition to this, some investors feel that with ending cannabis prohibition things will eventually level out there more the market becomes regulated. So far it looks as this year may be one of the biggest years for cannabis overall. More states are looking to go legal in some way or another which leaves room for continued growth.

Recently the U.S. cannabis industry brought in a record $17.5 billion in medical and adult-use sales with projections set at $30-$70 billion over the next 5-10 years. Furthermore, this number can grow with more states joining the industry which can add more positive sentiment to marijuana stocks overall.
