FinancialBuzz.com News Commentary
NEW YORK, September 28, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
According to a report by Grand View Research, the global medical cannabis market is projected to reach a value of USD 55.8 billion by 2025. After the elections of 2016, Washington D.C., along with 28 states have legalized cannabis for medical use. The growing number of states and countries receiving approval for use in therapeutic applications are one of the crucial factors driving the demand over the next few years. Grand View Research indicates that several regulatory frameworks such as the Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act, will require individuals or companies to obtain permission and also an annual state license from 2018. Companies such as growers, retail operators, and makers of processed pot products will be focused on, and an increasing number of issued licenses are also among factors helping to drive the market.

The legalization movement in the United States and in other countries is already bearing fruit of "Cannabis stocks significantly outperformed major indexes in 2016, fueled by speculative investment based on anticipated expansion of new legal markets. In the run up to the election, stocks increased by 207.8% and continued to rise, even with an uncertain future under the new administration. While recent comments by the Trump administration did have an initial dampening effect on the market, we have seen continued growth relative to Q4 2016 whereby cannabis stocks are still outperforming other sectors," said Giadha Aguirre De Carcer, CEO of New Frontier Data.
Global Payout, Inc. (OTC: GOHE) announced yesterday that, "its majority owned subsidiary, MoneyTrac Technology, Inc.

Additionally, PotSaver currently generates revenue through an agreement with Greenrush.

"The majority ownership acquisition of PotSaver marks a significant milestone for MoneyTrac Technology," said MTRAC COO, Vanessa Luna.

"In having had the opportunity to work in close collaboration with Ms. Luna and the MoneyTrac team in recent months, I have seen firsthand the experience, drive, and strong business sense they possess," said PotSaver Founder, Aaron Adler. "The many different avenues that this acquisition creates for the PotSaver brand to take full advantage of the opportunities that continue to materialize throughout our rapidly growing industry, is second-to-none.
