INVEST IN MEDICAL MARIJUANA/CANNABIS
Investors can gain exposure to medical marijuana by investing in individual stocks or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that pool assets from many people to invest in many marijuana stocks.
Investors interested in owning individual marijuana stocks operating in the U.S. have limited options. Because marijuana use is illegal in the U.S. federally, medical marijuana companies are often privately owned, rather than publicly traded, and companies that are publicly traded are traded on the lightly regulated over-the-counter market, rather than a major market exchange like the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
