Marijuana Stocks Still Seeing Big Buyouts In 2019

If there’s been one thing for certain, it has been that marijuana stocks and the cannabis industry have seen significant growth over the last 12-18 months.  With the boost from Canada to legitimize this as an industry of scale, a number of producers – both large and small – are leveraging early opportunities to take full advantage of a very young industry.  The biggest proponent that we’ve seen recently has been the strong pipeline of mergers, acquisitions, and strategic ventures that are happening right now; and we aren’t talking small deals either.
