Shares of Canopy Growth Corp (NASDAQ:CGC) are trading lower Wednesday, pulling back from a sharp rally on Monday. The stock is seeing a downturn as initial excitement wanes following a social media post by President Donald Trump over the weekend that lifted the entire cannabis sector.
What To Know: On Monday, Canopy's stock jumped 20% after Trump shared a video highlighting the potential medical benefits of CBD for seniors and hinted at policy changes that could include Medicare coverage.
