Essential Ancillary Cannabis Stocks to Consider Before February 2024

Best Ways To Invest In The Cannabis Industry Long Term

Do you intend to invest long-term in the top marijuana stocks? Finding long-term investments with general stability may be challenging, given the market volatility linked with the leading cannabis stocks to watch.

As federal cannabis legalization advances on Capitol Hill, top cannabis companies might experience increased volatility. President Joe Biden has declared that he will start pardoning persons who have previously been found guilty of federal offenses involving small amounts of cannabis. In addition, Biden said that to cease state-level prosecutions for marijuana possession, other governors should follow his lead.

Due to existing legal restrictions, most of these top US marijuana stocks are prohibited from trading on major US stock exchanges like the Nasdaq and NYSE. Currently, they trade on OTC markets, which are more difficult for novice retail investors and institutional investors to access. Both larger investing institutions and the fastest-growing retail trading platforms, such Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ: HOOD) and WeBull, steer clear of OTC stocks. However, using marijuana ETFs makes investing in some of these companies straightforward.

Cannabis exchange-traded funds give investors access to companies in the cannabis industry that aren’t yet listed on well-known stock exchanges. An index, sector, commodity, or other asset is frequently followed by a cannabis ETF, which trades like regular stocks on the stock exchange. You may invest in the cannabis sector with just one stake by locating the top cannabis ETFs that include the businesses you want to invest in. As the market dips in December, let’s look at four of the best marijuana ETFs to watch in 2023.
