BreedIT, Monsanto and GW Pharma Underscoring Advancements in Medical Marijuana Industry
ACCESSWIRE - Thu Sep 04, 8:29AM CDT
Whitefish, MT / September 4, 2014 / There is no shortage of philosophies coming from so-called pundits on how to play the legalized marijuana movement. The problem is that it's a nascent industry full of nascent companies, making it difficult to discern which companies will prevail. Many jumping into the pot space are throwing a dart of momentum plays (mostly those in the competitive growing or retail businesses) with only a modicum of information. There are some sectors that are being somewhat overlooked that may offer a more fundamentally sound opportunity for growth. The biotech space is like stacking speculation (biotech) on top of risk (medical marijuana), but that usually adds up to a home run if a company can get it right. Most investors are aware of the potential regulatory hurdles, but that has not steered them away from GW Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: GWPH). Probably the best biotech working with cannibinoids, GW Pharma has caught the attention of Wall Street for many reasons, including an upcoming clinical trial for Dravet syndrome, a terrible, life-threatening disease where patients are plagued with seizures that many families argue cannabis provides relief (if not essentially a cure).

*UPDATE* Big Pharma And Medical Marijuana; How Can They Coexist?
ACCESSWIRE - Mon Aug 25, 9:04AM CDT
