Best Stocks To Watch For 2019

tags:CCL,HSBC,RRC,

Few if any industries have been growing as quickly as legal marijuana in North America. Over the past couple of years, nearly all pot stocks have seen their valuations soar by a triple- or quadruple-digit percentage, making for some very happy investors.

At the heart of this bullishness is the expectation that Canada will legalize recreational weed this summer, becoming the first developed country in the world to do so. In the process, it'll be adding $5 billion or more in annual sales to its domestic pot industry.

Also, we've witnessed a discernible shift in the way the public views cannabis, at least in the United States. Spanning five national polls over the trailing year, each and every survey has produced support for legalization of at least 59%. Gallup, perhaps the most well-known pollster, pegged support at 64% in October 2017, which is up from just 25% in 1995, the year before California became the first state to legalize medicinal marijuana for compassionate-use patients.

    Companies in this region have had more measured growth plans because of the lack of pipelines. As Miller mentioned, though, improved efficiency has resulted in most companies outpacing their production growth plans. The lack of takeaway capacity has led to much lower prices for in-basin production. Range Resources (NYSE:RRC), one of the larger producers in the region, has noted that its price realizations were 10% below benchmark prices because of a lack of takeaway capacity.
