CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / December 13, 2018 / In the latest series of marijuana stock news the main focus has been on the 2018 US Farm Bill but what may be next is the focus on what is to come for 2019. David Goldstein, with the cannabis information company Potbotics, said 2018 was a ''huge year for marijuana. He said 2019 could be even bigger.''
"What I would like to see in 2019 is a de- schedulization," Goldstein said. "From a Schedule One drug that says marijuana has zero health benefits. To either a Schedule Two or a Schedule Three."
As focus turns to marijuana stocks in 2019, here are the cannabis companies to watch heading into the end of the year.
