Last year, the legal cannabis market expanded 17% to $5.4 billion, with the industry expected to clock another 25% increase this year, to reach $6.7 billion (ArcView Market Research).

Merrill Lynch say the $2.9 billion medical-marijuana industry would at least double in size if more states legalize the use of cannabis in medicines.

What do you guys think? Do you invest in marijuana-relates stocks? How sustainable are these investments? Is it long-term?

[Fergus Decker]

Yes i did invested in one of these stocks. 2017 would be great to invest in these if not done. I would suggest NASDAQ:CARA .

I haven't invested in marijuana-related stocks, but I heard that skilled investors are seeking high returns in these kind of stocks. I think it is now happening in some countries that already legalized cannabis plants.

i also want to invest in marijuan astocks as marijuana will be legalized soon in some countries. so i think it is right time to invest in marijuana companies.

I have not invested yet but looking to do that within a month or so. I met a couple of skilled traders who mostly trade penny stocks and they say the cannabis ROIs will soar in 2017-2018 so I am planning to jump in too

I think that the tobacco lobby in the US is too strong to miss the legalization of marijuana in most states and lose a lot of profit.

Very good point actually.

Guys, I think you should buy shares of marijuana-related companies, because the outlook is impressive. For example, even take for consideration the site marijuanabreak and you will understand how massively penetrates into our lives cannabis products and marijuana.

For instance, edibles and such were ''legalized'' recently (In october, I believe) yet there is a three months time frame to respect for whoever decides to enter that market (and it will see them available in a week from now)

Others noted the news does not solve a major obstacle for the Canadian sector; the shortage of retail stores that has allowed the black market to thrive. The red tape that is holding up licensing has contributed to a sharp selloff in the sector in the past six months as licensed producers are unable to get their product to consumers. Companies continue to post heavy losses as revenue proves elusive and many are now running out of cash and resorting to often dilutive actions to fund operations.
