4 Marijuana Stocks Making Moves on News This Week

CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / February 14, 2019 / The excitement surrounding the marijuana stock market has to do with the fact that, after years of disapproval, people are finally starting to embrace cannabis and the multitude of purposes it can serve. To this day, marijuana is schedule-1 narcotic, alongside LSD and heroin, but as we've come to accept, cannabis is nowhere near as harmful as the other drugs currently prohibited by the federal government. Following the recent passing of the US Farm Bill, as well as Canada's nation-wide legalization bill, we've seen, slowly but surely, a shift in public opinion on cannabis; consumers are getting onboard. Whereas generations prior condemned the substance and wrote it off as a harmful "narcotic," public perception of cannabis is changing on a daily basis, and opinions are turning largely favorable. Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI), Aurora Cannabis Inc (NYSE: ACB, TSX: ACB), Cronos Group Inc (CRON), and New Age Beverages Corporation (NBEV) represent four cannabis worth keeping on your radar.

Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI) is a company determined to meet the challenges of our ever-evolving healthcare system. Advancements in telemedicine and other medical technologies have driven patients to demand better quality treatments from their healthcare professionals. Premier is focused on developing innovative approaches that combine human skill-based expertise with state-of-the-art technologies to create the best possible treatment options for their growing patient network. The Company's subsidiary, HealthVue, currently boasts an ecosystem of over 100,000 active patients and plans to rapidly increase that number both domestically and internationally.

Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI) today provided consumers and investors in the cannabis sector with a corporate update. Over the past year, the Company has completed several key strategic acquisitions, including Cloud Practice Inc, a healthcare tech olgy company that provides cloud-based electronic medical records software applications for physicians throughout Canada.

As a result of this acquisition, Premier Health Group (OTC:PHGRF) (CSE:PHGI) now has a collective ecosystem of over 3,000,000 active patients and 287 primary care clinics. Additionally, Cloud Practice has seen revenue growth in excess of 30% year over year for the past 3 years. Not only does this acquisition expand the Company's footprint across Canada, but it also provides an opportunity to plug in its services to Cloud Practice's current client base.
