3 Top Marijuana Stock Picks For July
For those who are interested in marijuana stocks, there are different ways to find value. For starters, you have companies that are what are known as pure-play marijuana stocks. Most of the cannabis companies are ones that deal with play directly. For instance as cultivators and producers of cannabis. Most of these types of marijuana stocks hold the most risk due to rules and regulations. However, when there is a rise in trading they often show to be the ones that have stronger returns. Now this is not always the case. But cultivators and producers controlling the primary stages of the cannabis supply chain, allow them to benefit from increasing demand.
Which can resonate well with how the company trades in the market. Now manufacturers and processors are valuable due to their ability to create value-added cannabis products that cater to consumer preferences. By offering oils, extracts, edibles, and other derivatives, they can capture a larger market share. Plus potentially enjoy higher profit margins. Before you begin to find marijuana stocks to buy you should always do your research and develop a game plan beforehand.
With how unpredictable the sector can be you don’t want to get caught in a bad investment. Right now there is a high level of volatile trading that makes it tough to indicate whether a recovery will happen or not. Over the last week due to a push on getting a reform bill passed some marijuana stocks have seen better trading allowing some shareholders to take profits. With this in mind, the companies below are just several marijuana stocks to watch for the rest of the month.
