Top Marijuana Stocks to Watch This Week (Feb. 21)

top marijuana stocks Long-term investors are already plotting their course to seven-figure weed windfalls with the top marijuana stocks to watch today.

But finding the best marijuana stocks to watch isn't always easy.

That's because most marijuana stocks trade over the counter (OTC), and stocks listed on OTC markets aren't generally covered by analysts.

It's also difficult to find press releases and updates about cannabis companies.

So to help our readers each week, Money Morning shares news, catalysts, and events that could move pot stock prices.

And the first cannabis investment on our radar this week could make history...

According to NewCannabisVentures.com, the ETF Managers Group has filed a registration statement on Feb. 16 for what could be the first marijuana exchange-traded fund (ETF).

It will be known as the Emerging AgroSphere ETF, and AgroSphere will hold medical cannabis companies in its portfolio. According to the filing, the ETF will only hold medical marijuana companies in the United States, Canada, and other countries until recreational marijuana use becomes legalized.

This is good news for investors, as there are two big benefits to owning an ETF...

First, ETFs can give investors exposure to a variety of stocks, bonds, and commodities. This can limit losses, as the losses from one stock can be offset by the gains from another.

And the second benefit of an ETF is it gives investors exposure to top stocks at a fraction of the cost.

In fact, this stock has climbed over 5,000% in the last 12 months...

Top Marijuana Stock to Watch This Week

For risk-adverse investors, Crown Baus Capital Corp. (OTCMKTS: CBCA) is one of the best marijuana stocks to watch.

That's because Crown Baus isn't strictly a marijuana stock.

It's a global acquisition-based conglomerate that operates in five industries:

  • High-tech incubation
  • Drug development
  • Entertainment and media
  • Education
  • Financial services

The diversification makes owning CBCA less risky, while still allowing shareholders to profit from the booming marijuana industry.

And Crown Baus' most recent marijuana investment was on Feb. 17.

According to Yahoo Finance, Crown Baus signed a 100-acre investment participation deal with Cannabis Science Inc. (OTCMKTS: CBIS).

The agreement includes manufacturing capabilities, laboratory use, and cultivation, and the 100 acres are spread across Nevada and California.

This partnership will serve as a model for other projects that can be developed as more states legalize marijuana, according to Yahoo Finance.

Over the last 12 months, the CBCA stock price has skyrocketed 5,444.44%. It's also had a strong run thus far in 2017, climbing 399%.
