Last year, The Talking Hedge listed 44 predictions from Leafly on our 2020 Cannabis Crystal Ball Predictions podcast- 22 came true, 18 didn’t, and 4 were inconclusive. That's a 54% accuracy rate for 2020, down from 68% for 2019.
2020 was a big year for the cannabis industry. Frontrunners cleaned up their balance sheets and weaker players fell to the wayside as retail sales in the sector soared in during the pandemic.
Cannabis investment cratered in 2020, done in by the double-whammy of the Canadian legalization letdown and the pandemic. In 2021, investors will return, buoyed by the eye-popping 65% increase in 2020 cannabis sales across the United States after five states voted to legalize cannabis in November, the House passed the MORE Act, and Democrats took control the U.S. Senate.
Yes, cannabis is a recession-proof and pandemic-proof industry!
