2 Marijuana Stocks To Watch As The Sector Slowly Starts To Rise
With marijuana stocks still working to reach even higher market levels, the sector has been a bit volatile this month. Many people felt May might bring with it a boost in momentum. However, the first week of the new month followed in the same downward pattern as the previous month. Currently, some marijuana stocks have slowly started to inch back up in the market. Yet for those cannabis plays that have not fully recovered there is still a chance to find marijuana stocks to buy.
The cannabis industry in its entirety is still growing at a fast pace. Overall the global cannabis industry is turning into one of the fastest-growing industries in the world. Yet investors are aggressively focused on the U.S. side of the industry. This is due to the fact that many U.S. cannabis companies have been able to continuously remain profitable. Now in other markets around the globe, some of those marijuana companies have had trouble with their financials and business operations. For example, Canadian cannabis companies back in 2020 and even somewhat in 2021 were having trouble with operations.
Some advocates feel that once the U.S. passes federal cannabis reform it will help build up some of Canada’s marijuana market. Looking back over the last 2 and a half months you can see that the drop in the sector has left many marijuana stocks at lower levels than ever before. Now the goal is to figure out how to build back these cannabis stocks to better trading levels. Even with big news hitting the sector and some companies releasing good earnings it still didn’t resonate well in regards to trading. With more time left in May, the hope is to see this volatility transcend into an upward push that leads to better trading.

“This quarter for Cronos Group would not have been possible without the tenacious and innovative efforts put forward by every Cronos employee across our organization. In the first quarter of 2021, our results in Canada were impacted by market dynamics due to the COVID-19 pandemic and ensuing stay-at-home orders and various other restrictions. Despite this, we continued to push forward our innovation pipeline and execute on our strategy, which was a true testament to the strength of our team,” said Kurt Schmidt, President, and CEO, Cronos Group.
