Pot Stock Losses: Canopy Growth Corp. Securities Investigation

Have you suffered losses investing in Canopy Growth Corp. (CGC) at the advice of your financial advisor? If so, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you recover your losses through FINRA arbitration.

According to the Wall Street Journal yesterday, Investors in cannabis companies are finding their money is “going up in smoke” this week after a round of sad earnings reports.

Canopy Growth Corp., the largest cannabis company by market value, (formerly Tweed Marijuana Inc.), is based in Smiths Falls, Ontario.

Shares of Canopy Growth Corp. reportedly dropped 14% in one day, with a 41% decline this year. The company reportedly says it lost C$26.9 million on returned cannabis oil products that retailers in Canada did not want. Canopy said “price changes will cost the company about C$10.3 million,” according to MarketWatch on November 15.

According to one Forbes analyst in August, pots stocks may never recover, because now that is legal, selling marijuana is like selling any other crop. “Selling marijuana was lucrative because it was illegal.”

The analyst added that marijuana is a tough business and will get tougher as the market matures.

While revenues doubled last year for Canopy Growth Corp., stock declined almost 50% between April and August of this year. What happened? New companies are flooding in, and the competition is apparently cutting pot prices in half.
