CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2018 / In less than a month, Canada will become the second country in the world and the first G-7 nation to bring an end to prohibition of marijuana. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government has helped boost progress surrounding this big, global event, and it has also has built more attention on the US-based cannabis market.
The October 17 launch date brings many unknowns, however estimates have spanned from $4 billion to $10 billion in the first few years of implementation. As midterm elections are right around the corner, a number of pot stocks have continued to trend higher this week.
With this new market trend in mind, there are several marijuana stocks that have followed the latest industry move.
Leafbuyer Technologies, Inc. (LBUY) has seen above average market activity this week. Earlier this month the stock pulled back to lows of $0.55 on September 13. This week however, shares of Leafbuyer have moved up as high as $0.98 on Tuesday.
The company announced a non-binding letter of intent that will be put in place for the acquisition of California-based Greenlight Technologies. Greenlight's technology will support Leafbuyer's customers and allow consumers to pre-order cannabis products via mobile app and pick the orders up in their local store.
The technology company provides cannabis consumers real-time mobile ordering and loyalty rewards through a native application that integrates with the local dispensary's point of sale system.
''We believe Greenlight's technology and team will be a tremendous addition to Leafbuyer. Their presence in California will allow us to serve that rapidly growing market and tap into a significant new revenue stream. Offering mobile app pre-ordering will allow consumers to skip long lines and enjoy a better overall experience. We believe this service will offer dispensaries a powerful new tool and will allow us to cross-sell the Leafbuyer suite of solutions to a much larger sector of the market,'' said Kurt Rossner, Chairman and CEO of Leafbuyer.
