which US stock you think will grow the most? I'm debating getting back into MSOS, but also feel picking one stock vs ETF might be a good look for this industry
I'll put it like this...
Edit: (got a little lazy at the end with typing but still get the points across)
Homerun/swing for the fences pick
Planet 13 - The homerun pick. They're already developing a serious MOAT as they're positioning themselves as a "destination", sort of like an "adult" Disney World, but for cannabis. They're going to try and set themselves as a tourist spot in all major cities that people come to when they visit. They're vertically integrated, have branding, have great product, and they're already first-to-market with the concept. They're about to expand into LA and will soon expand across the country. They have a chance to be a special company.
Leaders with growing footprint in the US
CuraLeaf/Cresco Labs/GreenThumbs Industries/Trulieve - All have
footprints in the US right now and scaling (These companies will be the first to benefit from US legislation). CuraLeaf currently has the largest footprint and growing on pace to be the first MSO to hit $1 Billion in annual sales. Cresco Labs, great management, great product, constantly acquiring brands, and their Sunnyside dispensary is VERY popular....Revenue is exploding.
Culture/popular pick
The Parent Company - Largest vertically integrated cannabis company in California listing via largest cannabis spac deal ever. Jay-Z as the face and going to have that roc-nation push/backing.
Real Estate pick
Innovative Industrial Properties - Currently how many of these cannabis companies get property funding as they're not able to get funding from the big American banks *yet*.
Tech pick
SSPK/Weedmaps - Currently setting themselves up to be the Amazon/Google of the cannabis industry. This is where cannabis companies are marketing/selling their products and businesses.
Canadian Front-runners that will just right into the US when federally legal
Canopy Growth/Tilray - Two monsters on the global level with tons of cash and set to move into the US market the instant it becomes legal.
ETF
MSOS (for straightup US MSO exposure) and YOLO (For 50% US, 33% Canadian exposure). I think right now, MSOS is the best cannabis ETF short-term and long-term.
