Best Cannabis Stocks In 2022 For Short Term Trading
In 2022 many top marijuana stocks have reached new lows to start the year. As a volatile start to overall trading continues cannabis stocks are trading near these newly established lows. In March many cannabis investors saw pot stocks decline as inflation concerns and the war in Ukraine affected the market. Now in April, it seems the cannabis sector is waiting for some news from Congress regarding federal marijuana legalization. With the MORE Act passing in the House again, cannabis legislation seems to be on the move again.
In April Chuck Schumer also said he would introduce his bill and has been meeting with GOP leaders to discuss any concerns. But cannabis investors are not as excited this time around because a similar scenario played out in 2021 that left most of them holding the bag with top marijuana stocks. It seems this time around mere talk and going through the motions on the political playing field is not enticing retail investors to bet on pot stocks for the long term.
Instead, most seasoned cannabis investors are taking advantage of spikes and pullbacks using short-term trading techniques to produce gains. One area of the cannabis sector that has experienced the most volatility in 2022 is Canadian cannabis stocks. Although they are not directly related to US cannabis reform they trade on the Nasdaq and NYSE, unlike US pot stocks. This has given Canadian pot stocks exposure to the broader markets that US marijuana stocks are not able to have because they trade on the OTC Markets.
