Top Canadian Cannabis Stocks In 2021

In mid-August, the best marijuana stocks are trading at some of their lowest price points in 2021. One area that’s been hardest hit with market declines is top Canadian cannabis stocks. In the first quarter of 2021 the best Canadian marijuana stocks to invest in saw significant upside until February 10th. Since then, the cannabis sector has experience declines for several months. In the meantime, leading cannabis companies are reporting strong revenue growth in this round of earnings.

Although this has not currently turned into market gains it does show substantial growth in the cannabis market. For the most part, Canadian cannabis companies have grown in their own market and established some form of entry into the US one as well. As it stands federal lawmakers have introduced several bills like The SAFE Banking Act but have not advanced the bill through Congress for a vote.

Now with the Delta variant taking center stage as national crisis cannabis could take a backseat to these important issues that need to be addressed. This means Canadian cannabis companies will have to wait to enter the US cannabis market. This has put a strain on investors who expected the US to act much quicker dealing with the subject of cannabis legalization and reform. Now some cannabis investors are looking for other areas of the market for returns.

Factors Affecting The Broader Markets And Pot Stocks

Another factor that could affect the markets this week is the Taliban takeover in Afghanistan.

In some ways, this drop in the cannabis sector could be an opportunity for investors to find top marijuana stocks at lower entry levels.
