In Ontario appeared first hotel complex for cannabis lovers

What could be better than to sit by the lake in a Muskoka chair? To smoke a cigarillo Backwoods… unless you smoke.

You can do it, and besides, smoke on the balcony of your room at Sir Sam’s Inn & Spa hotel complex is only for adults, whose leadership has just announced that now they are allowed to consume cannabis products.

At the moment it is the only such hotel in the province, at least officially, which allows its customers to smoke pot on-site.

Located in Haliburton, about three hours away from Toronto, a luxury hotel with 25 rooms located directly on the shore of lake Eagle.

Although the complex has been active for many years, this place where I can get away couples, is not going to keep up with the trends of the time.

3 cannabis stocks to buy on the rebound in June

There are more cannabis stocks than you can shake a stick at that have performed dismally over the past couple of months. Many of them, though, started out in 2019 with nice gains. Big up-and-down swings come with the territory when you invest in cannabis stocks.

However, some of these stocks are coming back, and more could be on the way to doing so. Three cannabis stocks that I think investors should consider buying on the rebound in June are CannTrust Holdings (NYSE: CTST), Canopy Growth (NYSE: CGC), and KushCo Holdings (NASDAQOTH: KSHB). Here's why these stocks look like good picks.

How Chart Industries could be an under-the-radar cannabis stock

However, natural gas may not be the only megaindustry that presents Chart with a big opportunity. On the first-quarter conference call, CEO Jill Evanko called out the massive global growth of cannabis in the coming years, describing it as having "double-digit growth potential" for the company, considering the expectation for global cannabis sales to reach $32 billion within a few years.

Could cannabis be Chart's next big source of growth? Let's take a closer look.

Just how big is the cannabis opportunity?

According to Evanko, there were $10.5 billion in legal (at the state level) cannabis sales in the U.S. in 2018, and that amount is expected to more than double to $22 billion in 2022, and close in on $32 billion around the world.

Marijuana legalization sparks concerns about DUIs, enforcement for McHenry County police chiefs

Police chiefs in McHenry County have concerns about residents driving under the influence and how to properly enforce the law now that Illinois is poised to become the 11th state in the country to legalize recreational marijuana.

Since marijuana first was legalized in Colorado in January 2014, the state has collected about $6.4 billion in total sales, according to data from the Colorado Department of Revenue.

Conversely – despite downturns in a number of marijuana-related crimes – traffic fatalities involving a driver who tested positive for cannabis compounds increased from 55 in 2013 to 139 in 2017, according to a 2018 report from the Colorado Division of Criminal Justice’s Office of Research and Statistics.

Better buy: Aurora Cannabis vs. Scotts Miracle-Gro Company

It's been a great year for Aurora Cannabis (NYSE: ACB) and Scotts Miracle-Gro Company (NYSE: SMG) so far. Both stocks are up more than 50% year to date. 

How the stocks achieved those gains have been quite different, though. Aurora's share price doubled by mid-March before falling back down to earth a bit. Scotts, meanwhile, rose relatively steadily throughout the year.

Which stock is the better pick for long-term investors? Here are the top arguments for both Aurora and Scotts Miracle-Gro.

Where will Aurora Cannabis be in 10 years?

In less than six years, Aurora Cannabis (NYSE:ACB) has built a cannabis empire.

It's an empire that stretches across five continents to 24 countries. Aurora now claims the highest production capacity in the entire cannabis industry. And the company's sales are growing by 21% -- not year over year but quarter over quarter.

But that's where Aurora has been and is now. Where will the company be in 10 years? There's no way to know for sure, of course. I think, however, that we can make some educated guesses.

Canada ‘blew’ its chance to be the world's pot leader

Canada “blew it” on cannabis legalization and is rapidly losing ground to the U.S. as a result, according to the founder of one of the top investment banks to the industry.

A lack of policy innovation, a messy patchwork of provincial regulations and severe restrictions on marketing and branding have left Canadian pot companies eating the Americans’ dust, according to Neil Selfe, founder and chief executive officer of Infor Financial Group Inc.

My favourite marijuana stock for 2019

Like many in the investing world, I’m excited about the marijuana boom. Everyone expected enormous gains post-legalization. But as it turned out, the marijuana industry is more complex than initially imagined. Instead of reporting massive profits, Canadian cannabis producers are reporting staggering losses.

The problem now is, how long it would take to recover those losses and post profits. As the players ramp up production to build scale, losses continue to rise. Hence, it somehow poses a dilemma to choose a favourite marijuana stock this year.

3 marijuana penny stocks that could be the real deal

Generally speaking, penny stocks -- publicly traded companies with a low share price, usually below $5 -- are bad news. Stocks that have very low share prices are typically low for very good reasons.

This might include uncertainty about staying solvent, persistent losses, or operating in a highly competitive or unproven industry. The point being that while penny stock pops do amaze from time to time, penny stocks are, far more often than not, money losers for investors.
