Notice the correlation between the states that have the most electric vehicles per total registered vehicles and the states that have legalized recreational use cannabis. Most are west coast states. This gives rise to ponder a cause and effect hypothesis similar to global warmist alarmist rantings. It suggests that the more the population smokes dope to get stoned, the better electric vehicles will look to buy. Perhaps Eric is proof of theory. Clearly the enviro-nutcase wingnuts should lobby all states to allow recreational use cannabis so they can increase the number of electric vehicles on the road and save the planet. I should apply for an Obama grant to further this study. I'm going to submit this research to Science and Nature for peer review and publication. I just have to make sure the peers smoke dope. Three Stocks to Watch in the US Cannabis Market Jeff Desjardins on December 10, 2014 at 4:47 pm Three Stocks to Watch in the U.S. Cannabis MarketAccording to Timothy Sykes, now is the time to look closer at the opportunities in smallcap cannabis stocks. Alaska, Colorado, Washington, Oregon, and the District of Columbia have all legalized the sale of recreational marijuana, and many more jurisdictions are about to follow suit. Canada has also changed medical marijuana laws starting on April 1, 2014, creating a $3.4 billion opportunity. With these aforementioned factors, Sykes sees big potential for investors. He cites three companies as being interesting to watch on the US cannabis market specifically: GW Pharmaceuticals (GWPH), American Green Inc. (ERBB), and Cannabis Science (CBIS). The market caps are $1.5 billion, $33 million, and $57 million respectively. With more states legalizing recreational use and the new medical marijuana scheme in Canada, the industry is set to continue legitimizing, gaining more blue chip companies. However, in the interim, there are still some illegitimate companies on the horizon that are worth keeping a close eye on to avoid. Original graphic from: Timothy Sykes
