Top Cannabis Stocks And Current Marijuana Legalization
In July top marijuana stocks have seen extreme market volatility as the month progressed. Now going into August many leading cannabis companies are expected to release earnings which could be a potential catalyst for the cannabis sector. Because of recent declines many top cannabis stocks to buy are trading near their lowest price points in 2021. Another factor that could boost the cannabis market soon is federal cannabis legalization. Earlier this month Chuck Schumer released a draft of the Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act to see what issues lawmakers and stakeholders have with the proposed draft.
Although the federal government has not slowed down the growth of the cannabis industry. Being federally legal will help the marijuana market in many ways. For one many leading US cannabis companies are trading on the OTC markets because vertically integrated cannabis companies are not allowed to trade on any major US index. Currently, this is causing these top cannabis stocks to miss one of the fastest-growing pools of retail investors on popular trading apps like Robinhood and Webull. Some of these investors are buying Canadian marijuana stocks to gain exposure to the industry.
Also, right now most cannabis companies do business on a cash basis because they are unable to have regular banking due to the federal policies on the cannabis industry. In addition, Canadian cannabis companies are still unable to do business in the US cannabis market. For the most part, Canadian cannabis companies have been strategically planning their entry into the American cannabis market once the government reschedules cannabis.
