These 4 Marijuana Stocks Could Take Off

In this article:

CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / February 20, 2019 / When talking about the marijuana stock market, typically the first idea that comes to mind is the volatile nature of the industry which fuels it. This is mainly because so much is taking place at any given moment in the cannabis sector that, sometimes, people are unsure of what to do. The fact is that the marijuana industry is still very much in its infancy because, until recently, society had historically been vehemently opposed to cannabis. As a result of the passing of new legislation in support of legalizing cannabis, there has been a remarkable shift in public opinion on marijuana and its potential benefits, resulting in more companies entering the space with innovative ideas for creating products for consumers. If this continues, the cannabis industry may see an increase in investor attention in the near future. Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI), Village Farms International Inc (VFFIF), CannTrust Holdings Inc (OTC PINK: CNTTF), and Aurora Cannabis Inc (NYSE: ACB, TSX: ACB) are four pot stocks that could test this week's highs.

Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI) stands out among companies in the cannabis sector because its core business structure is based around operating within the healthcare sector. Over the course of the last year, Premier has made several key investments in businesses and products to build out its framework, and rather than solely use these acquisitions for its healthcare consumers, the Company recognized the boundless potential of combining innovative medical approaches with cannabis products.

Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI) provided consumers and investors in the cannabis sector with a corporate update towards the end of last week. Over the past year, the Company has completed several key strategic acquisitions, including Cloud Practice Inc, a healthcare technology company that provides cloud-based electronic medical records software applications for physicians throughout Canada.

Presently, Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI) manages and supports a member-based ecosystem of over 3,000,000 active patients and 287 primary care clinics. Additionally, Cloud Practice, one of the Company's recent acquisitions, has seen revenue growth in excess of 30% year over year for the past 3 years. Not only does this acquisition expand the Company's footprint across Canada, but it also provides an opportunity to plug in its services to Cloud Practice's current client base.

Amid their corporate update, Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI) spoke on plans for further expanding their operations. As for the Company's next move, they will be entering the Cannabis clinic space. The role of Cannabis in treating medical conditions is continuously expanding to help patients with acute & chronic symptoms. Currently, there is a critical gap between the patient's need for medical cannabis, and the physician's comfort and knowledge to prescribe it.
