We’ve now had another multi-month correction in the cannabis stocks and last week they started showing signs of a potential 3rd major upleg. Both Canopy Growth Corp (OTC:TWMJF) and Aphria Inc (OTC:APHQF) moved higher on big volume. TWMJF in particular is interesting because it acts like the leader of this sector and actually was the first major cannabis stock to break out during the big move higher in late 2017. Once again TWMJF is very close to making new highs and should drag the rest of the sector with it if it does.
Disclosure: I am long shares of TWMJF and APHQF.
