Marijuana is on the rise, prohibition is ending; here's how to profit from it
It's no surprise with the steady outflow of news releases stating the innumerable health benefits of marijuana, that prohibition is inevitably coming to it's final days.
The stock market
Public companies in the stock market are already thriving. With MJ in the US federally illegal, it's still managing to bring in $5.4 Billion in 2015 . That number is set to be $40 Billion by 2021. 7.5 X rate of return in 5 years. Your $1000 has just turned into $7,500. That's a little better then your grandpa's mutual fund getting 3% ... or $30 a year.

How to start up an account
- Go to your bank, set up a meeting to open an online stock brokerage account.
- If you can put it in a Tax Free Savings Account, do that, all your profits will be tax exempt.
- After your 20 minute meeting, and 3 business days to finalize, you're set to trade.
It's that easy
You have an account, now where to invest:
There are many sectors and options to invest in from pharmaceuticals, to THC "breathalyzers";.The sector that is inevitable to see growth, are the producers & oil extractors.
Canopy Growth Corporation ( CGC ) :
Freshly listed on the TSX, the #1 company in Canada, Canopy Growth Corporation. This monopoly controls over 25% of the market, and is already moving into Australia, Brazil, and 7 European countries. With legislation for recreational legalization coming spring 2017, this company is as close to a sure thing as you can get.
- Current Share Price $3.14 CAD, end of year forecasted $4.50 ( 64% Growth )
- Patient enrollments raising exponentially, estimated to reaching over 22,000 by 2017. At the end of June 2016, Canopy reported it had enrolled 16,000 patients, a huge jump up from 11,000 three months earlier.
- Current revenue 14.7 Million per year
- Estimated 2017 revenue: 40 Million
- Estimated 2018 revenue: 68 Million
- Estimated 2024 revenue: 780 Million
Golden Leaf Holdings ( GLH ) :
This company is a sleeping monster. Listed for now, only on the Canadian Stock Exchange, watch for it to go live in the US markets any day/week now. Although a Canadian company, it operates in Oregon and Washington, two states which already allow recreation marijuana sales. It's trailing yearly revenue ending in March 2016 is $21 Million, compared to the #1 company in Canada (Canopy) at $14 Million, ( And that doesn't even include the recent months Oregon has been legal for GLH to sell rec. weed ).
This stock is at $0.36
There is speculation as to why is stock is so low, from lack of exposure, uncertainty in the US federal system, a few missed expectations, and mis-managing. The stock price has taken a hit in the last year, but not the company, making this the most opportune time to buy the highest revenue stock on the Marijuana producers market.
These are my two go-to's. there is an abundance to choose from and research:

Much Love,
