Marijuana Stocks To Buy Before Federal Reform Is Passed?
Marijuana stocks are starting to see some extra momentum to start December. Now, this can be due to several reasons all having to do with the betterment of the cannabis industry. Recently there was news that was concerning possibly passing cannabis banking before 2023 begins. This news was able to cause a mid-day rally on December 1st. However, the passing of cannabis banking has yet to be done. As well there is a continuous battle to end cannabis prohibtion altogether in the USA. Currently, cannabis is still federally illegal even with more than half of the United States legalizing cannabis in some way.
Some investors see this as an opportunity to get in on the action before federal reform becomes law. There is talk and speculation that when there is no more cannabis prohibtion in the US that marijuana stocks will see a big recovery. Still, this is just a hope and it’s based on the fact that positive news on the matter has been the biggest catalyst for marijuana stocks so far.
Nevertheless, with 2023 around the corner, there is still a lot of work to be done to keep the cannabis industry on the right track. In the upcoming year, we may see new states legalize cannabis which would only expand the business and grow the industry even more. So if you feel finding the best marijuana stocks to buy is something for just make sure you do your due diligence. The marijuana stocks to watch below are a few options to consider heading into 2023.
