"Nelson continues to remain deeply involved in our business, and we communicate with him and his team on a virtually daily basis."Al Foreman of Tuatara Capital has over $300 million in two private equity funds hunting for good investments. To him, the industry's terrible stock performance reflects maturity in expectations.

Then 2019 came, companies starting missing revenue targets, and the markets sold off. Foreman said top companies have started to meet their numbers again, and the market is "rightsizing."Danny Moses thinks Canadian stock prices are still a little expensive. He prefers U.S.. companies like Cresco and Green Thumb Industries. However, Moses expects more M&A in 2020 between companies which need to merge to live.

And there are other issues he's watching. California's illegal market continues to outperform and undercut the legal market, even as the Golden State leads in innovation. Moses also said a lot of money which could have gone into marijuana is now chasing hemp and hemp-based CBD.
