3 Marijuana Stocks That Could Be Set To Rally Ahead Of Elections

In this article:

CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / October 31,2018 / Marijuana stocks hold a place in the spotlight ahead of US midterm elections. On the ballot of several states are legalization proposals that could add to the growing list of legal locations across the US.

Since 2012, several US states, including Colorado, Washington and, most recently, California, passed legislation to legalize the recreational use of cannabis. Considered together, these states represent 21% of the total US population and 24% of total US GDP this market could be well positioned for growth. Furthermore, on a global scale, the same potential could reside. According to Grand View Research*, the global legal marijuana market size was valued at $9.3 billion in 2016 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 34.6% during the forecast period. The market is expected to witness significant growth owing to legalization in several countries and high demand for both medical and recreational purposes. Despite the recent downturn for some cannabis stocks, the US elections could increase interest for many marijuana companies

Our gummies will provide an approachable delivery method, that is easy to consume and with a great taste. We expect the bulk of the sales to take place online but also have plans to distribute through our existing networks to brick and mortar stores in Colorado and throughout the United States.
