In this article:

CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / December 20, 2018 / The cannabis industry has been booming for several years now as legislation has come to pass, with public opinion following suit. With this new market, we've seen the amount of public support for cannabis soar well over 60%, subsequently driving an increasing amount of investments into the budding market. As more and more flood into the industry, Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI), Hem, Inc. (HEMP), Tilray, Inc. (TLRY), and New Age Beverages Corporation (NBEV), are 4 marijuana stocks getting a boost in the market.

Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI) opened Thursday trading with a bang at $0.69 per share, up from $0.53 at the end of October and $0.59 on December 9. Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI) has had an exciting couple of weeks, with announcements regarding two different letter of intent agreements making headlines across the globe. Last week, the Company announced that as part of its growth strategy to cover the major verticals associated with primary care, it has signed a binding of LOI to acquire a Vancouver, British Columbia based pharmacy.

Per their press release regarding the matter, the total consideration payable by Premier is $1,350,000, which will be paid over the course of six months following the closing of the deal.

''We are excited for this opportunity to acquire our first pharmacy, and thereafter being able to prepare and deliver prescription and non-prescription pharmaceuticals and other health products to patients. In doing so, the pharmacist will play an integral role in our team-based patient centric model,'' said Dr. Essam Hamza, CEO of Premier. '' Premier has engaged with patients, pharmacies and technology providers to not only introduce pharmacy services as a component of our comprehensive telemedicine app, but also to explore and implement efficiencies in fill and fulfillment.''

Hemp Inc (HEMP) has seen its shares skyrocket over the course of the last few weeks, following Congress's passing of the farm bill which, included in its verbiage, federally legalized mass production and farming of hemp.

Over the past month, Hemp, Inc's stock has rallied over 100% as investor confidence has dramatically increased.

''Hemp, Inc is committed to meeting market demand for high-quality hemp and derived products, building on our strategic operations throughout the country to ensure Hemp, Inc's standing as one of the premier growers, suppliers and manufacturers of hemp to the US,'' said CEO Bruce Perlowin.
