From the street to the clinic. Cannabis had the image of an illegal street drug in most rich countries since the prohibition in the USA in the 1930s. Although cannabis has been used as a medicinal plant for more than 1,000 years, the past decades have been marked by other pharmaceutical products. The market and attitudes towards cannabis are now changing. Doctors, patients, companies and investors see opportunities to profit from this development.

    Education is the key to success

    Education and research are often the beginning of a success story. In order for development to progress, knowledge and education are an elementary basis for medical change with cannabis. Doctors, patients and companies must work together to test and evaluate the effects of cannabis in medicine.

    With increasing experience and information in databases the acceptance of cannabis in medicine will increase. Thus the use of medical cannabis preparations can be suggested by physicians or simply demanded by patients.

    Improvement of the quality of life

    The use of and experiences with cannabis products are characterized by objective and subjective characteristics. For example, a cannabis product may cause a patient to sleep much better but not to feel any improvement in pain relief. The bottom line, however, is that the quality of life has subjectively increased due to improved sleep.

    Such developments in practice ensure that cannabis products are accepted in medicine. In this context, however, it is important that patients have easy access to medical cannabis products and also that doctors know what they are prescribing for which therapies.

    Opportunities for investors

    Also the companies invest in the development of the cannabis market and here especially experience counts. Aurora Cannabis, EXMceuticals and also Tilray have different approaches and strategies to conquer the market for cannabis products.

    For investors there is the opportunity to participate in the listed companies to be part of it. Even if the share prices of most cannabis companies have been declining in recent months, the trend in use and therapy will continue. It will probably only be a matter of time when this development will be reflected in the stock market prices again.

    Portugal as cannabis centre

    EXMceuticals, a manufacturer of high quality cannabis extracts for use in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industry as well as in therapy and cosmetics, announced yesterday that Prf. Dr. Eurico Castro Alves has been appointed to the company's advisory board.

    Bargain alert in Biotech, AI, Cannabis: Evotec, Cantourage, BlockchainK2 share instead of Nvidia?

    • chips
    • Biotechnology
    • Cannabis

    The weak late summer months on the stock market often offer opportunities for bargain hunters - including at the moment and away from the large caps. For instance, Nvidia has already lost around 30% from its all-time high, but historically a drop of 50% or more is not uncommon for this AI high-flyer. It is, therefore, worth taking a look at fallen small and mid-caps. For example, Cantourage shares gained more than 10% yesterday alone. Is there more to come for the cannabis stock? BlockchainK2 shares are also ripe for a price surge. The SaaS platform for financial service providers offers cost and efficiency benefits thanks to blockchain and AI. The sentiment for fintechs - look at PayPal - is currently brightening noticeably, and BlockchainK2 is a takeover candidate. The same could be said for Evotec, or is there a risk of a slide to EUR 4? In any case, the Company is not finding any peace.

    • Cannabis

    Sustainability is one of the most significant issues of our time, including on the stock market. In the past, ESG-labeled investments have sprung up like mushrooms. In contrast, investments in socially and ecologically harmful sectors were avoided at the expense of returns. When looking at performance, a striking number of top performers come from sectors such as armaments, oil and gas or cannabis. Listed companies from these sectors are likely to continue their upward trend in the future.

    Now that the precious metals gold and silver are taking a breather after a rally, other markets are becoming the focus of investor interest. In addition to copper, which is likely to reach new highs in the medium term due to supply shortages, lithium, an industrial metal essential for electromobility, continues to work on bottoming out. However, the highlight of the past week in terms of volatility was cannabis stocks, which are expected to remain in focus in the coming weeks.
