Cannabis may be one of the hottest investments of the year.
More states are legalizing its use, including New Jersey. North Dakota just approved a cannabis legalization bill. Legalization has been proposed in Maryland. In fact, the Maryland sponsor of the bill, Del. Jazz Lewis, argues, “the bill would take the production of cannabis off of the streets to ensure safer products, while simultaneously creating jobs, helping small businesses, and bringing in potentially hundreds of millions of dollars in annual tax revenue.”
Even some of the top lawmakers in D.C. want to federally decriminalize cannabis. To-date, according to CNET, recreational sales are legal in 15 states, plus Washington, D.C. Medical sales are legal in 35 states. Medical sales of CBD are legal in seven states. In addition, it has been decriminalized in 32 states.
It’s also fueling big growth for the global edibles market, which could generate about $13.65 billion by 2025 at a CAGR of 30.5%, says Zion Market Research. “The growing acceptance of cannabis is the key factor likely to drive the cannabis edibles market globally in the future.”
