Analysts Predicting a 58% Gain for this Leading Cannabis Biotech

Analysis originally distributed on January 25, 2017 By: Michael Vodicka of Cannabis Stock Trades

The cannabis industry is loaded with dozens of biotechs.

For example, if you take a look at the North American cannabis sector, you’ll see that the field is littered with biotechs such as Axim Biotechnologies (OTC:AXIM), Cara Therapeutics (Nasdaq:CARA) and Insys Therapeutics (Nasdaq:INSY).

These companies are aggressively searching for a cannabis-based medicine to treat some of the worst diseases plaguing humankind, including cancer, epilepsy, and HIV.

It’s obvious the cannabis industry sees a big opportunity in pharmaceuticals and is investing billions in research and development to cash in.

On the one hand, it’s great that investors have so many cannabis biotechs to choose from.

On the other, investing in biotech stocks is already one of the hardest sectors to pick winners and losers.

It’s even harder in the cannabis sector.

Some of these early cannabis biotechs will go on to make billions on blockbuster drugs and deliver market-crushing returns to shareholders.

Others will crumble and file for bankruptcy.

Today, I want to share my #1 cannabis biotech stock that I believe is ready to soar in 2017. Continue reading "Analysts Predicting a 58% Gain for this Leading Cannabis Biotech"

Others have been submitted since then, but that ETF will be the first to be approved or denied by the SEC.

Some experts believe the Bitcoin ecosystem could attract as much as $300 million within the first week of the ETF being approved. That sort of cash flow would certainly help the currency move higher from its current $950 per coin value. But, with all the secrecy surrounding the cryptocurrency is this something you want to be involved in from either owning Bitcoins outright or from the convenience of an ETF?

Are 'Value' ETFs Worth The Risk?

By: Richard Robinson of Street Authority

"Where are the customers' yachts?"

It was a question the tour guide didn't expect. He was taking a group of tourists through the financial district in lower Manhattan from the area now known as Battery Park.

Eventually docks appeared around the park. And because of its proximity to Wall Street, it became a favored location for Wall Street bankers and brokers to dock their very expensive yachts.

So it was on this day that the tour guide was extolling the virtues of Wall Street moneymen. He told his audience that the yachts were the rewards for creating enormous wealth for their customers.

To which one lone voice asked, "Where are the customers' yachts?" Continue reading "Are 'Value' ETFs Worth The Risk?"
