Why Investing in CBD Stocks Is a No-Brainer in 2019

2019 is a massive year for investing in CBD stocks.

In fact, Brightfield Group says the CBD market alone is already worth $591 million since its legalization in December 2018. Beyond that, it predicts the CBD market will skyrocket exponentially in the next four years to $22 billion.

That's an insane 3,623% boost in just a few years.

That level of growth potential is just one reason CBD stocks are a "must have" in 2019. In fact, it's why we're so bullish on the CBD industry as a whole.

But that's not the only reason why we're so bullish on CBD stocks...

CBD Oil Benefits

There are plenty of health benefits associated with cannabis. Cannabis - and its accompanying compounds cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol-9 (THC) - have proven capabilities to treat pain, inflammation, dementia, seizures, and even autoimmune diseases.

It's been recently discovered that CBD actually helps combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

But CBD oil's benefits go beyond physical ailments as well. CBD can relieve stress and anxiety, and it can even help with PTSD.

Since their IPOs, the top pot stocks on the market have seen windfalls upwards of 1,700%, 3,800%, even 5,800%. Everywhere you look, people are making a fortune off this agribusiness boom. And you can, too... Just click here to see how...

People are also finding that CBD helps to treat many of the same conditions in their pets, too.

On top of that, states that have fully legalized marijuana have seen government healthcare spending drop by 10%.

And while CBD's immense popularity is partly because of all the great things it can do for our health, it can also help save the planet...

CBD Is Great for the Earth, Too

The easiest plant to extract CBD oil from is hemp. And hemp has been proven to be able to detoxify the soil it's planted in. In fact, scientists have uncovered that hemp's deep root systems actually pull out pollutants and heavy metals from the ground. This process is known as "phytoremediation," and it leaves the soil beneath healthier than it was before.

This process was first discovered back in 1986 by a Russian scientist who had planted hemp in areas contaminated by radiation in Chernobyl.

Another German study confirmed hemp's capabilities when it concluded that hemp pulled out toxic materials like lead, heavy metals, cadmium, and nickel from an area composed of sewage sludge.

And in 2011, Italian farmers used hemp fields to clean up areas heavily polluted by a steel plant.

Plus, 22nd Century Group Inc. (NYSE: XXII) has developed a variety of hemp to clean up industrial waste on top of its CBD oil business.

And while CBD can boost our overall wellness, help our pets, and even save the environment, there are other ways that CBD stocks can help investors turn a big profit...

How the CBD Industry Is Boosting Local Economies

Not only is CBD good for our bodies, our pets, and the earth, but it's also helping the economy.

Just look at Needles, Calif. The town was built along Route 66 in the Mojave Desert. It used to be a massive industrial and transportation hub for those driving to and from Los Angeles.

This small town of 5,000 needs jobs now more than ever. And the legalization of cannabis is helping. In fact, officials from Needles say they've approved over 81 marijuana business permits that could create over 2,100 jobs.

But cannabis isn't just lifting old industrial towns up. It's also helping American farmers.

Hemp has the ability to create between $40,000 and $50,000 per acre in revenue for farmers. To put that into perspective, corn generates $800 per acre. Not even tobacco and alfalfa can compete with the profit potential of hemp.

And while tobacco farmers are beginning to see the demand fall for their crops, hemp is proving an excellent alternative that could net them even bigger profits.

Currently, there are over 150 publicly-traded CBD companies that are competing in the massive $600 billion legal marijuana market. But, since not every company will make it out on top, we're here to help you discover the CBD stocks that have the potential to produce double, or even triple-digit gains for investors.

Illinois Becomes the 11th State to Legalize Cannabis (Making More People Rich)

Cannabis laws are being reformed en masse: Illinois has not only become the 11th - and second largest - state to legalize marijuana, but the first to do so by way of state legislation.

That means the medical, personal, and economic benefits of "America's Green Gold Rush" are appealing to Republicans and Democrats alike.

One cannabis research executive is hailing Illinois the "Marijuana Mecca of the Midwest," a hallmark of the rising uncapped profit potential ahead.

Once the Fed ends the cannabis prohibition nationwide, all bets will be off - demand will boost share prices through the roof. But you can still get in on the ground floor, just in time for what could be the windfall of the century.

Illinois is already housing some of our top picks in the industry, so a few of our favorite stocks could get yet another boost.

Just click here to see how you can get them - and to potentially profit from this "unstoppable economic revolution"...
