The consolidation in cannabis stocks since their February highs presents a lot of potential for long-term marijuana investors holding fast, according to one investment advisor. “For investors who are looking at the long game, this is a huge opportunity because the players in cannabis have only gotten stronger over the last year,” Ross Gerber, president and CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth & Investment Management, said on Yahoo Finance Live (video above).  “The numbers that I’ve looked at… Source link

The competition among purveyors of plant-based protein is heating up the fast food industry with a frenzy that resembles the increasingly hot chicken sandwich wars.
