Marijuana Stocks Continue to Soar Sky High
|
|
In August we covered the Alternative Harvest ETF, one of the largest cannabis related ETFs currently traded. Since then the price has soared from just over $25 to more than $37 per share.
Growing interest from beverage companies and other more traditional businesses has sent a buying frenzy into the space over the past several weeks. While much of the interest has remained north of the border due to the Canadian government’s vote to end prohibition, we believe it’s a great sign longer-term for all cannabis related companies, and it’s likely only a matter of time before US-based players catch up.

GSRX Industries (OTCQB: GSRX) Receives Pre-Qualification for its Seventh Dispensary in Puerto Rico
|
|
GSRX Industries (OTCQB: GSRX), a cannabis stock developing vertically integrated operations in Puerto Rico, California, and other markets, received pre-qualification for a new Green Spirit RX medicinal cannabis dispensary in San Juan, Puerto Rico. This will be the company’s seventh dispensary on the island. Two of the dispensaries opened earlier this year and have been generating sales for several months. The other five dispensaries are under construction or near completion.
Why It Matters: GSRX is positioning itself as the dominant cannabis retailer in Puerto Rico, already commanding pre-qualifications for nearly 10% of the expected licenses available. The black market for cannabis in Puerto Rico has been estimated to exceed $500 million annually. As more and more of that market transfers into the expanding legal system, GSRX should be able to generate consistent and sizeable revenue growth.
What’s Next: Retailing medical cannabis in Puerto Rico is just one component of GSRX’s business model. Led by the former Chairman and CEO of Macy’s Midwest, GSRX is also expanding its operations into the country’s largest market: California. In addition to the acquisition of an operating dispensary in Northern California’s Mendocino County, GSRX has established joint ventures and other relationships to build-out a fully vertically-integrated business, including grow operations, extraction, and manufacturing.

GSRX Industries (OTCQB: GSRX) is a client of RedChip Companies.
