Financialnewsmedia.com News Commentary 

According to the Brightfield Group, hemp-derived CBD, tinctures and oils - consumption forms focused on the ease of medicating - are making up nearly half (47%) of the total CBD market. In the marijuana-derived market tinctures and oils comprise just 7.4% of all sales, and sugar candy leads with 28% of the market. Conversely, in consumer surveys conducted by Brightfield, marijuana-derived CBD users did not report a higher preference for sugar candies than hemp users did. In fact, CBD users across the board ranked vape cartridges, tinctures, oils, and topicals as top choices as Brightfield reveals THC-dominant candies sell more. Active cannabis companies in the markets this week include PotNetwork Holdings, Inc. (OTC:POTN), Tilray, Inc. (NASDAQ:TLRY), Canopy Growth Corporation (NYSE:CGC) (TSX:WEED), Terra Tech Corp. (OTC:TRTC), Namaste Technologies Inc. (TSX-V:N) (OTC:NXTTF).
