Interest from retail investors appeared to lift cannabis stocks broadly higher on Wednesday, signaling that the recent trading frenzy behind Reddit favorites such as GameStop is shifting to other companies.

Shares of Tilray jumped 40% in morning trading, while shares of Canopy Growth Corp and Aurora Cannabis Inc both rallied more than 12%. The ETFMG cannabis stocks exchange-traded fund, which has more than doubled in value since November’s U.S. presidential elections, gained nearly 10%, while the broad S&P 500 index edged just 0.2% higher before turning lower.

Swaggystocks, which aggregates sentiment on shares talked about in the WallStreetBets forum, showed Tilray was the most upvoted, or highly touted, stock in the group. However, some analysts argue that the valuations of the companies are becoming unjustifiable, especially for Canadian companies like Tilray, Aphria and Canopy Growth, which may gain very little from U.S. changes.

Shares of Tilray, which is being taken over by Aphria in a complicated reverse merger, are up more than 400% since the deal was announced in December following new agreements to supply its medical cannabis to European markets.

OGI will disagree with experts when it starts to take off. Same with HEXO. stonks OGI HEXO StockMarket ToTheMoon 'Experts' 'Wrong companies' Sounds like someone is peanut butter n jealous they chose the wrong boomer stocks.

Reddit trader-favored cannabis stocks jump again on ThursdayThe group of cannabis companies are garnering attention from the same WallStreetBets Reddit army that contributed to the epic short squeeze in GameStop last month. I wish this wasn’t going on. I’m a long term hold kind of guy. Tilray/Aphria should be good to slowly grow without Reddit The REAL reason cannabis is up, stop pushing the BS “reddit traders” narrative to scare ppl into thinking it’s manipulation.
