Hemp CBD Stocks on the Rise, Boom in Industry

The wonders and popularity of oils made from industrial hemp are gaining popularity worldwide.

For good reason too, hemp based CBD oil works! The oil that is changing so many peoples' lives for the better is spreading via word of mouth, personal testimony, and first hand experience.

It shouldn’t be surprising to anyone that the value of stock in Industrial Hemp would also rise as the popularity of Hemp based therapies grows too.

Market Insider Reports:

“According to a recent report by New Frontier Data, the Viridian Cannabis Stock Index gained 236.1% in 2016 and outperforming such mainstream indexes as the Russell 2000 (up 19.5%), the Dow Jones Industrial Average (up 13.4%), the S&P 500 (up 9.5%), and the Nasdaq composite (up 7.5%). New Frontier Data also reported that legal cannabis sales in California alone are projected to reach $2.8 billion in 2017 and $6.6 billion by 2025, with a compound annual growth rate of 12% over the next eight years.

With such huge gains in the stock market, and multiple industrial hemp businesses starting up across the nation, I can only foresee economic growth in the industrial hemp industry as well as economic prosperity in local communities -- jobs, increased local revenues, and property values.

It would seem that CBD oil made from industrial hemp does more than just help the body. It helps communities.
