Canopy Growth Corp (NYSE:CGC) Charts Scream Buy Now Why Canopy Growth Corp is a buy at current level
History repeats itself. In the case of Canopy, history is on the side of the bulls at this point. Canopy is currently trading at $15 price range – one of its lowest price levels in two years. But this isn’t the first time Canopy has dropped this low. Around this time two years ago (November 13, 2017), Canopy was trading at $15. Bears felt like Xmas had come early, but they were wrong. In less than a month, Canopy had sharply reversed course and by the end of December 2017, the stock had almost doubled its price to $30. It was trading even higher in mid-January 2018. As would be expected, investors began booking profits after the stock surged, resulting in a pullback.
That scenario repeated itself almost perfectly a year later. In November 2018, Canopy was on a downtrend and by December the stock was at one of its lowest price levels. However, the stock sharply reversed course in mid-December where it was trading at $25, so by mid-January the stock had almost doubled its price to $47.
With Canopy presently at one of its lowest price levels, you shouldn’t be surprised if it sharply reverses course and begins trending up from current levels. Of course, charts show Canopy has a history breaking out strongly from its November lows.
Cannabis 2.0 and more pot shops in Canada to expand Canopy’s market opportunity
Beyond historic price actions that show Canopy has a way of bouncing back from its lows, there are more reasons to be bullish on the stock. Last month, Canada expanded its cannabis market in what is called Cannabis 2.0 with the legalization of more cannabis-based products for recreational use. The sale of the newly legalized recreational cannabis products will kick off next month. Canopy is of the cannabis companies that have prepared to capture the expanded Canadian cannabis market with a range of products from cannabis-based drinks and edibles to vape pens.
Additionally, Canopy has ample cash reserve, more than C$2.7 billion, that it should readily deploy in areas such as product development and marketing as the need may call for to enable it to take full advantage of Cannabis 2.0.
Moreover, a shortage of cannabis shops has currently limited sales for cannabis companies like Canopy in Canada’s Ontario province. However, Canopy leadership views this as a short-term headwind that should clear soon or later and allow Canopy to realize its full potential in Ontario and Canada’s cannabis market in general.
“We believe our fundamentals are strong and are confident we’re moving in the right direction,” commented Canopy CEO Mark Zekulin.
Bottom line
Considering that Canopy is currently trading at one of its lowest price levels, and taking into account the stock’s history of bouncing back as well as its strong fundamentals, Canopy looks to be a great cannabis play currently available at a steep discount.
