The highest returning cannabis sector is Biotech/Pharma which has an estimated 13% gain YTD.
The lowest returning sector is Hemp with an approximate 45% loss YTD. Sector M&A activity is up sharply 2021 with 31 transactions YTD compared to only 1 in 2020, however, business fundamentals still lag, as CBD sales in retail have not bounced back to pre-COVID levels.
Agriculture Technology is in consolidation mode as evidence by the $653M YTD M&A consideration targeted at the sector but the stocks have been punished by the slowdown in cultivation impacting several western states including Nevada and California, leading to a 24% YTD loss.
The Cultivation & Retail is still down by about 7% despite the sharp rally over the last two weeks.
