There's billions of untapped potential from the global marijuana black market.
But even though black market cannabis is pretty cheap, it can be dangerous to use.
Fortunately, we have one Canadian cannabis stock to buy now that is taking the illegal weed market to the mat.

We've talked before about the "vaping crisis" – a kind of lung syndrome sickening and, in some cases, killing, users of vaporized cannabis and nicotine.

But, just as nature abhors a vacuum, markets don't much care for 'em, either.
With interest rates at historically low levels and likely going lower, REITs are paying attractive dividends. In fact, they pay the type of dividends that used to be available in the bond market.
While a 5% dividend won’t get you all the way to easy street, it is a far cry from the 1.5% Treasury yields pay right now.
And 5% is what the best REIT available today pays investors who buy the stock now.
Many investors are missing the boat.
They're settling for overhyped IPOs, when they could make money investing in pre-IPO stocks that lasts for generations.
