In the old days, pot was seen as a way to get stoned.

But now, researchers are discovering that pot can actually have many health benefits.

Most of those come from Cannabidiol - one of the most prevalent compounds found in hemp plants that is commonly refereed to as CBD on the Street.

Studies have shown that the non-psychoactive elements of CBD can deliver relief to a wide range of ailments, including aches, pains, anxiety, insomnia and arthritis - without the euphoric effects provided by THC.

These benefits are creating a huge growth market.

The Hemp Business Journal, a CBD media and data company, estimates the CBD market will grow to $2.1 billion in consumer sales by 2020. That would be a 700% increase from 2016.

This is an exciting segment of the cannabis industry that doesn't get a lot of attention. Continue reading "Secret CBD Company Grows Sales 1,300% in 12 Months" →

Blockbuster drugs are the holy grail of the pharmaceutical and biotech industry.

When annual sales of a new drug break the $1 billion mark, investors are usually rewarded with big gains.

This is what began happening late 2012 with Gilead Science (NASDAQ:GILD).

In 2013 the FDA approved Gilead's hepatitis C drug Sovaldi.

Then, in 2014, Gilead scored an FDA approval for another Hep C drug, Harvoni.

Both drugs went on to quickly hit blockbuster status - sending shares of Gilead soaring - jumping more than 200% in the next two years. Take a look below.

Investing in cannabis IPOs for the last few years has been extremely profitable.
