Experts Love These 2 Cannabis Stocks in 2018

Cannabis stocks are some of the best investments to make, with legal sales in North America expected to jump from $10 billion in 2017 to $24.5 billion by 2021.

You heard that right.

There will be a 145% increase in legal cannabis sales in just four years.

Of course, finding the best pot stocks to fit in your portfolio isn't easy...

When you start Googling "marijuana stocks to buy," you'll find lists out there of up to 227 marijuana stocks to buy.

We want to simplify the process.

That's why we reached out to a cannabis expert who believes retail investors should own these two stocks in the $10 billion cannabis industry.

But before buying a stock with your hard-earned money, remember to always do your own research.

And if you own marijuana stocks, you have to be ready for volatile price swings.

After all, marijuana is still illegal under federal law, and any negative comment from a government official can send prices spiraling down.

However, U.S. President Donald Trump may support a bill that protects states that have legalized marijuana.

No matter how much Attorney General Jeff Sessions dislikes cannabis, he can't go against President Trump's wishes.

To help us narrow down the best pot stocks to own, we turned to cannabis expert Wil Ralston.

He is the president of SinglePoint Inc. (OTCMKTS: SING), a cannabis and technology holding company. SinglePoint specializes in acquisitions of small- to mid-sized companies with an emphasis on mobile technologies and emerging markets.

With that sort of focus on the cannabis industry, it's no wonder Ralston is plugged in to the best profit opportunities.

And it's no wonder he's keying in on two companies we've been recommending as backdoor marijuana plays...

"From Scotts Miracle-Gro Co.'s (NYSE: SMG) investment in cannabis agriculture to Microsoft Corp.'s (Nasdaq: MSFT) partnership with KIND, we're seeing traditional blue-chip companies getting involved in the industry with increasing confidence. As individual states continue to legalize cannabis, we'll likely see this trend continue. Anyone interested in investing in these companies is best served keeping abreast of news developments and watching the almost inevitable growth that occurs for companies willing to take the leap into the cannabis space," Ralston said.

We provided all the details on why SMG and MSFT are the top "pick-and-shovel" plays in the cannabis industry on March 8, and it's good to see Ralston is watching them too.

Pick-and-shovel plays cash in on the cannabis industry without selling marijuana directly.

That makes them less risky to own.
