The Marijuana Industry is Exploding
Speculation in the marijuana industry has exploded since Colorado and Washington voters legalized sales for recreational use to anyone 21 years and older. Hour long lines formed when Colorado shops selling pot opened on Jan. 1, 2014. A total of 20 states, including California and Massachusetts, now allow the medical use of marijuana, and New York may be next under a plan announced by Governor Andrew Cuomo. ArcView Consultants project the market for legal marijuana will grow to $2.34 billion in 2014.
"Every day, more and more people realize that cannabis will be legal and that it will be the next great American industry, and so they're placing their bets," says Troy Dayton, ArcView's CEO. "The question is when, how, and who. The who is largely being decided right now."
Legislative reforms for legalization of marijuana are also galvanizing stock market investors. Some of the biggest percentage gains in the market this year are being harvested by investors speculating on marijuana penny stocks.
Federal laws are changing in the classification of marijuana as an illegal substance, the U.S. Justice Department said in August that it wouldn't challenge the legalization laws in Washington and Colorado, provided the states prevent out-of-state distribution, access to minors, and drugged driving, among other things.

"Content is where I expect much of the real money will be made on the Internet, just as it was in broadcasting.
The television revolution that began half a century ago spawned a number of industries, including the manufacturing of TV sets, but the long-term winners were those who used the medium to deliver information and entertainment."
