The cannabis industry is currently in the spotlight, thanks to a broader acceptance of marijuana for both medicinal and recreational purposes around the globe - a shift that has been accompanied by some significant legislative proposals. One standout example is the recent vote by Germany to partially legalize cannabis for personal use, opening the door to new market opportunities and growth. In the U.S., meanwhile, investors are still awaiting news on the proposed rescheduling of marijuana, which would be a boon for multi-state operators.
Against this backdrop, some cannabis stocks are absolutely killing it this year. But one that you might not have heard about yet is Village Farms International (VFF). This company isn't just another player in the cannabis industry. They've got a rich portfolio of North American cannabis and hemp growers and distributors, with a touch of agriculture and alternative energy exposure, too - plus, VFF's foray into the German market could be a game-changer after parliament's landmark vote on the green stuff.
