The "Pfizer of Medical Marijuana" Could Be In for Another Round of 1,000%+ Gains

Legal marijuana is about more - much more - than recreational use. In fact, its medicinal potential, unchained, could be worth billions more than the billion-dollar consumables market.

Study after study has shown that up to two dozen medical conditions could be treated with marijuana.

Two of its more intriguing components, non-psychoactive cannabidiol (CBD) and psychoactive tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), have a clear impact on brain function and pain management.

Glaucoma sufferers, for example, have long known that pot can reduce ocular swelling. Many people swear by pot's ability to improve lung function, counterintuitive as that may seem. And people suffering from conditions such as multiple sclerosis will tell you that this drug can greatly ease the daily pain they must live with.

Results like those are part of the reason medical marijuana has been approved in 24 states and in many countries around the world - and the reason why the medical marijuana market topped $4 billion in 2015.

Just one company, a biotech that first hit my radar in 2014 and has delivered peak gains of more than 1,100% over the past three years, is favorably positioned to make a classic "corner-the-market" move on this incredibly lucrative segment.

I'm recommending it once more today, after a round of quadruple-digit gains, because I think there's every reason for it to happen all over again...

This Company Will Dominate Cannabis-Based Therapies

Like I said, the legal market for medical marijuana exceeded $4 billion in 2015 and will likely reach $35 billion by early next decade, according to ArcView Market Research and New Frontier Data.

That got the scientists at the Cambridge, UK-based GW Pharmaceuticals Plc. (Nasdaq ADR: GWPH) thinking: If marijuana has such a broad range of potentially healing properties, and is finally receiving more respect among doctors, why not build a business around CBD and THC?

GW has an unbeatable head start in the race to build drug franchises around the healing powers of cannabis.

Medical Breakthrough: A tiny $6 million company just won a stunning patent verdict, setting up an explosive 28,700% sales surge in the next 18 months. This stock could soar - click here for details...

You see, all the way back in 1998 - the Dark Ages, in terms of legal cannabis - this company successfully lobbied the Home Office and Department of Health for the country's first-ever "cultivation license" to grow cannabis for commercial, scientific research.

For the past five years, the firm has been cultivating strains of the plant with an eye to increasing concentrations of these two key ingredients. This effort has made it possible for GW to provide its engineers with a robust supply of the raw material they need as they ramp up research into a broad range of new drug candidates.

GW's scientists are looking to capitalize on a series of medical breakthroughs made in the 1990s, when researchers first realized that the body actually has three systems that regulate disease and pain. Two of these, the central nervous system and the immune system, were already well understood. But what researchers discovered was that our body is also regulated by proteins called endocannabinoid receptors.

THC and CBD go right to these receptors and can have a profound impact on the body's various mental and physical responses. GW Pharma has focused on the impact of CBD, which targets the brain's receptors that control mood and brain seizures.

Its research has been fruitful, showing incredible promise.

About the Author

Michael A. Robinson is a 36-year Silicon Valley veteran and one of the top tech and biotech financial analysts working today. That's because, as a consultant, senior adviser, and board member for Silicon Valley venture capital firms, Michael enjoys privileged access to pioneering CEOs, scientists, and high-profile players. And he brings this entire world of Silicon Valley "insiders" right to you...

  • He was one of five people involved in early meetings for the $160 billion "cloud" computing phenomenon.
  • He was there as Lee Iacocca and Roger Smith, the CEOs of Chrysler and GM, led the robotics revolution that saved the U.S. automotive industry.
  • As cyber-security was becoming a focus of national security, Michael was with Dave DeWalt, the CEO of McAfee, right before Intel acquired his company for $7.8 billion.

This all means the entire world is constantly seeking Michael's insight.

In addition to being a regular guest and panelist on CNBC and Fox Business, he is also a Pulitzer Prize-nominated writer and reporter. His first book Overdrawn: The Bailout of American Savings warned people about the coming financial collapse - years before the word "bailout" became a household word.

Silicon Valley defense publications vie for his analysis. He's worked for Defense Media Network and Signal Magazine, as well as The New York Times, American Enterprise, and The Wall Street Journal.

And even with decades of experience, Michael believes there has never been a moment in time quite like this.

Right now, medical breakthroughs that once took years to develop are moving at a record speed. And that means we are going to see highly lucrative biotech investment opportunities come in fast and furious.

To help you navigate the historic opportunity in biotech, Michael launched the Bio-Tech Profit Alliance.

His other publications include: Strategic Tech Investor, The Nova-X Report, Bio-Technology Profit Alliance and Nexus-9 Network.
