PFC Nole, our officer in the hole
Pot companies are traded over-the-counter on pink sheets. For a proper listing on the big exchanges (AMEX, NASDAQ, NYSE) they would need Federal approval of pot laws.

The pink sheets tend to be penny stocks and/or operate on low volume. You may get in at $.05 but the volume may not be there to sell at $.06.

Since they are not subject to major exchange rules they lack transparency - 10Qs at the ilk. That's how you get surprise loses of 80% (with a possible volume/liquidity trap if you want to sell).

Buyer beware.

The closest acceptable firm is GWPH. A British medical company that investigates THC therapy. It's a real company and traded on NASDAQ. Start there.
