CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / March 20, 2019 / The marijuana stock market has enjoyed copious amounts of attention via headlines related to cannabis companies flourishing in the first few months of 2019. Whereas in the past, society largely condemned cannabis and refused to consider the potential benefits of investing in cannabis and/or utilizing cannabis products, those feelings are slowly dissipating. The positive shift in public opinion can be attributed to the fact that the medical community has released data supporting the use of cannabidiol as a form of alternative treatment, given its effectiveness as an anti-inflammatory. Like other sectors whirring with innovation, the cannabis industry is rapidly progressing into the future and, rather than be left behind, investors looking for potential opportunities may want to keep cannabis companies on their radars. Next Green Wave Holdings Inc (NXGWF) (NGW), Can-Fite BioPharma Ltd (NYSE American: CANF), Tilray Inc (TLRY), and GrowGeneration Corp (GRWG) are 4 pot stocks worth keeping on your radar this week.
