HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / April 17, 2019 / The bullish momentum in cannabis stocks has continued in 2019.

Related stocks have already exploded on news of Canadian legalization, U.S. states approving its medicinal or recreational use, and corporate America interest. The U.S. FDA approved the very first cannabis-derived drug, as well as the 2018 Farm Bill, which legalized hemp and hemp-based CBD. Even major retailers are jumping on board.

Better, Cowen analysts say U.S. cannabis sales could reach $80 billion in the next 11 years. Analysts at Piper Jaffray say the market could be worth as much as $50 billion a year in the U.S.

In addition, according to The General Social Survey conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago, 61% of those surveyed support legalization. That's up from 57% in 2016. A Gallup survey found that 66% of Americans are in favor of legalization. That's up from just 60% in 2016. A Pew survey found that 62% of Americans want to see cannabis legalization in the country, as compared to just 57% in 2015.

As the story heats up, likely beneficiaries include Lifestyle Delivery Systems Inc. (CSE: LDS)(OTCQX: LDSYF), iAnthus Capital Holdings Inc. (CSE: IAN)(OTC: ITHUF), and Harvest Health & Recreation Inc. (CN: HARV)(OTC: HRVSF).

Lifestyle Delivery Systems Inc. (LDS)(LDSYF) just announced that its flagship product, CannaStrips has been delivered to four new retailers, including Purple Star, Elevated, Redstone Delivery, and Fire Farms through Rise Distribution.

"We know Rise Distribution can move a large amount of product and this is really the beginning.
