My Favorite Cannabis "Vape" Company Just Made a Savvy Move

Even if you're not a cannabis investor, you've likely heard of the so-called "vaping crisis."

So far, no reputable, licensed cartridge or "e-device" manufacturers' products have been

linked to the epidemic and instead, the attention is on illicit "bootleg" cartridges. And now,

one marijuana company has made a move to not only protect itself, but also its market

share and consumers.

Here's why this is so exciting...

This High-Flying Marijuana Stock Could Be Headed for the Nasdaq

Catalysts can be any number of things including a new product development, a merger, trends, etc.
One of my favorite catalysts is when a stock gets uplisted onto a popular stock exchange like Nasdaq.

This U.S. Cannabis Firm Could Be Next on the Nasdaq

We've talked about some of the unique challenges facing legitimate United States-based cannabis companies – challenges that come from its illegal status at the federal level.

Banking is one challenge; marijuana firms in the states have an incredibly difficult time accessing those services for fear of running afoul of Uncle Sam's money laundering statutes.

Achieving a listing on the Nasdaq or New York Stock Exchange is another problem – and one with even more of an impact on investors. It effectively cuts off the company and its shareholders from the $20 trillion in capital that trades in the "big leagues."

Most American marijuana firms have to offer shares "on the pink sheets," in the smaller, markedly less liquid over-the-counter markets.

The other day, I showed you one U.S. cannabis company that took an ingenious "shortcut" route through a wall of red tape to list on the Nasdaq; it's the dawn of what I called a "$20 trillion tomorrow."

That tomorrow may come sooner than anyone realizes – because another American marijuana firm is making a play for its Nasdaq listing.

The Dollar Value of the U.S. Weed Market Is Already Huge

The marijuana market as a whole is a lot like the Grand Canyon – it looks fantastic up close, but from a distance, it's absolutely breathtaking.

Last year, total marijuana sales – legal and black market – in the United States topped $86 billion. In 2018, all across the country, nearly 49 million people spent an average of $1,755 each on marijuana.

The thing is, some $68 billion of that was from totally illegal black market sales.

But that still leaves us with around $18 billion in legal transactions. For comparison, that's about the size of the U.S. urgent care healthcare segment in 2018.

So the "$68 billion question," as it were, is how quickly that "legal gap" will close and start putting mega-profits in pot stock investors' pockets.

The short answer: much faster than anyone out there is predicting. Bringing illicit sales into the legal "light" doesn't require convincing new customers to try something new; no new consumption habits need to be formed.

It's a well-established market, full of folks just waiting to fork over their money.

And they will fork it over by the truckload...
