June 2025 Watchlist: Best Ancillary Cannabis Stocks for Smart Investors
The U.S. cannabis industry continues to expand, even with ongoing regulatory challenges. In 2025, the market is projected to generate over $45 billion in revenue. Consumer demand is rising, and dispensary numbers continue to grow across the country. By 2030, the market could exceed $75 billion, driven by both medical and recreational use. So far, 24 states and Washington, D.C., have legalized recreational cannabis. In addition, 39 states allow it for medical purposes. However, federal prohibition still limits banking access and interstate commerce. Despite this, ancillary companies play a vital role. These firms do not touch the plant but support cultivation, production, and distribution. As the industry matures, these businesses offer more stability. For that reason, investors are closely watching key ancillary stocks this week.
