Why Marijuana Stocks Will Benefit from Drone Deliveries

Delivering legal cannabis is dangerous, as evidenced by a robbery on Jan. 29, 2016, in San Francisco, where thieves stole a delivery driver's car and $8,000 worth of marijuana.

But a novel concept could increase the safety of cannabis deliveries and be a boon for marijuana stocks: drone deliveries. Not only will drone deliveries increase safety, but they will also make delivery faster and more convenient.

marijuana stocksAnd we've found one company that's harnessing the potential of drone deliveries in the medicinal marijuana industry.

We'll get to how this company's drone deliveries could increase sales for marijuana companies and help pot stock prices climb in just a bit. But we also have a special profit opportunity in the drone industry to share with our readers that could be creating $127 billion in new wealth as we speak.

But first, we want Money Morning readers to know more about the medical marijuana startup pioneering this revolutionary delivery system...

This One Startup Could Revolutionize the Marijuana Industry

Founded in 2013, Eaze partners with legal marijuana dispensaries to deliver cannabis to medical marijuana patients in California. Medical marijuana patients order cannabis products online through Eaze's website and receive a text message when their driver is arriving.

According to its website, most deliveries take between 10 and 20 minutes.

However, the amount of deliveries and speed of marijuana transportation could soon drastically increase...

In April, Eaze demonstrated a marijuana drone delivery at the High Times Cannabis Cup in San Bernardino.

As you can see in the accompanying video, the drone was able to deliver marijuana to an attendee of the Cannabis Cup with pinpoint accuracy.

Now, it's true the technology still needs to be refined before wide-scale cannabis deliveries by drones can occur. According to LA Weekly, Eaze said it's still a few years away from fully putting the technology to use.

But the point of the demonstration was to show what is possible.

And when wide-scale use of drones for marijuana deliveries becomes the norm, it will be a boon for certain pot stocks. That's because using drones can increase the speed of delivery.

For example, Amazon.com Inc. (Nasdaq: AMZN) completed its first delivery with a drone in 2016. From the customer ordering a product to the actual delivery, the whole process took just 13 minutes, which is faster than Eaze's deliveries, which can take up to 20 minutes.

You see, cars are limited because of traffic and road layouts, while drones can go directly to the customer.

And when delivery is faster, more customers can be reached in a day, which will lead to more cannabis dispensary sales. And using Amazon's model, more people are willing to buy products online than having to drive somewhere to get it.

Investing in Drones Will Be Like Investing in Smartphones in 2009: If you've thought of drones in military terms or just as toys, this is a wake-up call. Find out more.  

Also, Eaze could expand its operating hours with drones.

Eaze only operates until midnight, limiting the amount of deliveries and sales that can occur in a day. But with autonomous flying vehicles, it could create a 24-hour delivery service, continually generating sales and revenue.

Now, Eaze has a breakthrough idea, but it isn't a publicly traded company, so you won't be able to buy its stock.

But because both the marijuana and drone industries are experiencing skyrocketing growth right now, investing in either industry could generate massive returns for long-term investors. Legal marijuana sales are expected to climb 198% in North America, from $6.7 billion in 2016 to $20 billion by 2020, and the drone industry is creating $127 billion in new wealth as we speak.

Fortunately, we have an opportunity for you to profit from both of these riveting industries. Here's how...

How to Profit from Marijuana Stocks and Drone Stocks

[mmpazkzone name="in-story" network="9794" site="307044" id="137008" type="4"]

In an exclusive interview, Money Morning Director of Tech & Venture Capital Research and pot stock expert Michael A. Robinson shares details about five tiny weed stocks that could potentially turn a small stake into $100,000.

But before we get to the five stocks, we want to make sure Money Morning readers know more about Robinson.

He's is one of our most prominent and respected investing "gurus" here at Money Map Press - and for good reason. He is one of the top financial analysts working today. Make no mistake: Robinson's ideas are completely his own. He's a true original. He works solely for Money Map Press... and receives absolutely no compensation from companies he writes about.

His book "Overdrawn: The Bailout of American Savings" was a prescient look at the anatomy of the nation's S&L crisis, long before the word "bailout" became part of our daily lexicon. He's a Pulitzer Prize-nominated writer and reporter, lauded by the Columbia Journalism Review for his aggressive style.

Robinson's 30-year track record as a leading tech analyst has garnered him rave reviews, too.

As editor of the financial newsletter American Wealth Underground, Robinson amassed an amazing track record using rigorous investing. The first analyst to uncover the rare earth mineral crisis, he amassed cumulative gains of 990% for his readers in just 16 months.

His research is world class, too. The Oakland TribuneDetroit NewsThe San Francisco ExaminerThe Kansas City TimesWealth Magazine, and American Banker all publish his reporting. He has appeared on Larry King's syndicated radio show.

Robinson has an honors economics degree from the University of Missouri at Columbia with a minor in journalism.

And in an exclusive interview with Money Morning, Robinson shares all the details on five tiny weed stocks that could potentially turn a small stake into $100,000. Click here to continue.

For the drone market, we want Money Morning Members to know about something happening right now. Sources are saying there could be $127 billion in new wealth being created as we speak.

And this is beyond anything Money Morning Executive Editor Bill Patalon could have imagined...

Financial Guru Bill Patalon Just Uncovered Your Next Profit Opportunity

Before Patalon moved into the investment research business in December 2005, he spent 22 years as a journalist, most of it covering financial news as a reporter, columnist, and editor that included stints with Gannett Co. Inc. and The Baltimore Sun.

He has covered finance and investing, economics, manufacturing, the defense sector, biotechnology, and telecommunications. The companies he's covered include Eastman Kodak, Xerox, Harley-Davidson, Caterpillar, Westinghouse Electric, Verizon, MedImmune, and Black & Decker.

His most memorable interviews include: former President Richard M. Nixon, General Electric CEO John F. "Jack" Welch, Forbes magazine publisher and former presidential candidate Steve Forbes, and business-turnaround specialist and helicopter-industry pioneer Stanley Hiller, Jr.

It was Patalon's work covering Eastman Kodak Co. during the latter half of the 1990s that solidified his reputation as one of the nation's top analytical business journalists. With his award-winning reports on Kodak's competitive travails, he consistently scooped his competitors in the national business media. His chronicles of Kodak's turnaround efforts took him to China, Japan, Silicon Valley, New York, Washington, D.C., and even Hollywood.

Along the way, he earned the esteem of heavyweights like Anthony Gallea, senior portfolio management director at Morgan Stanley, who collaborated on Patalon's 1999 ground-breaking book, "Contrarian Investing."

Patalon's ideas so impressed Jim Rogers that the hedge fund genius eagerly wrote a glowing six-page introduction to the book.

A winner of approximately two-dozen journalism awards - including top honors from the Associated Press and the prestigious Society of American Business Editors and Writers (SABEW) - he has had his work featured in Kiplinger's personal finance magazine, USA Today, and The South China Morning Post, among other publications.

Before taking over Money Morning, he served as the editor of The Rebound Report, an investment newsletter focused on turnaround stocks.

Patalon has a B.A. in Print Journalism from Penn State University and an MBA in finance from the Rochester Institute of Technology.

Yes, he's uncovered a lot of investment stories. And he's even been nominated for two Pulitzer Prizes.

But he's never seen a story as potentially lucrative as this one...

The Next $127 Billion Profit Opportunity

In the barren, hostile plains of the New Mexico desert, not far from the Mexican border, they're building a city like no other.

A city with high rises, avenues, parks, a big-box store, churches, and gas stations for a population of 35,000 at a ground-up cost exceeding $1 billion...

Made to look like so many other cities in America, except for one thing: people - there are none. It's a ghost town, and it always will be.

Here's what Patalon learned about this ghost town and what he believes is really going on.

Its location in New Mexico is the first key: The state scoops up tons of government research dollars straight from Washington.

And indeed, located in hardened shelters far beneath this empty city will be teams of top-secret scientists and federal contractors hard at work...

Driven by what they call "mother's milk" - the hopes of seeing billions of dollars in government funding coming their way. Plus many billions more in new wealth that they hope to create.

Patalon has identified the main group of scientists and researchers behind this project.

They are quite clearly inventing a big future with new technologies that stretch the imagination - new technologies that are about to be everywhere.

They call their ghost town "Project CITE."

It's the brainchild of the government contractor Marble Arch.

And when you learn how tight Marble Arch is with the Pentagon and how many massive government contracts Marble Arch has scooped up over the years, you know something big is happening here.

Big as in "$127 billion in new wealth for early investors" big, Patalon's findings suggest.

Marble Arch is run by Bob Brumley, who was President Reagan's point man for privatizing commercial space transportation. He's definitely a big thinker - like an Elon Musk with a direct line to government funding!

And this new venture of his is every bit as ambitious as space travel, with even bigger impact, because it's going to happen right before our eyes.

Now, as we mentioned, the specific details of this venture are not public. But after Patalon's investigation, he's incredibly confident it will involve the next big thing in tech, security, and investing.

He's talking about unmanned flying machines.

Yes, drones.

But not the drones you're probably thinking of. Not the kind the military uses to hunt down and kill enemy terrorists. Not any kind you've ever heard of before.

These are what Patalon calls "AI Drones" - a brand-new breed of amazingly intelligent and super-capable drones unlike anything ever witnessed, using artificial intelligence to accomplish more benefits for people, businesses, and human civilization than you could have ever imagined possible.

But there's another reason why these new drones will soon be everywhere.

I'm talking about a big event that just happened...

An event that's blowing the lid off the drone market not two years from now... not a year from now... not even six months from now...

IMMEDIATELY.

It's happening as we speak.

And Patalon has uncovered one tiny company sitting at the center of it all. You may never have a better shot at getting in on the ground floor of such a massive new market.

By getting in early, you could profit from the potential 4,636% gain that Patalon's projecting. A gain like this would be the equivalent of turning...

Every $50 you invest into $2,318...

Every $2,500 into $115,900...

And a $10,000 stake becomes $463,600.

As you know, these kind of quadruple-digit returns are exceptional and don't happen every day. But think about it - even a fraction of these gains could make you a fortune.

Plus this kind of spike makes perfect sense, when you think about it. This is investing in the next frontier in aviation - the next great leap forward.

Patalon sees dollar signs, pure and simple, which is why he put a briefing together for you, and this investment recommendation, as well...

Now, because this is a small stock, there will be volatility. So he'll also recommend a tight buying strategy. The last thing any investor wants to do is blindly chase a small stock upward with no plan in mind. And, as always, never investing more than one can afford to lose is good advice.

Here's everything you need to know about how you could pocket $115,900 from the next frontier in flight.
