Top 22 Canadian cannabis stocks up 127% since Constellation pact, says Stifel

Yesterday’s significant outperformance for Canadian cannabis stocks, led by Tilray (TLRY), at one point pushed the total market capitalization for Canadian Licensed Producers above $C80B, before they closed with a combined market cap of C$73B, calculates Stifel analyst Christopher Growe. Since August 15, when Constellation Brands (STZ) announced a pact to invest C$5B into Canopy Growth (CGC), the top 22 Canadian cannabis stocks are up 127% in stock price, noted Growe. A $C73B market cap in relation to what he estimates to be an addressable Canadian market of C$10B is “difficult to fathom,” so valuations require global opportunities to be realized, added Growe, who said he questions the pace of development and degree of advantage for these companies. Companies in the cannabis space that can be traded in the U.S. include Aurora Cannabis (ACBFF), CV Sciences (CVSI), Canopy Growth, Cronos Group (CRON) and Tilray.
