Could this be Cronos Group's most logical acquisition target?

In case you haven't noticed, big things are happening in the cannabis landscape. Last year, the first in which a developed country (Canada) had legalized recreational marijuana for adults, the global cannabis industry generated $12.2 billion in sales. By this time next decade, we could see anywhere from $50 billion to $75 billion in worldwide annual pot sales, depending on your preferred estimate from Wall Street.

This growth promotes two trends: expansion and consolidation. Last year was predominantly spent on marijuana growers expanding their capacity at a breakneck pace. But we're liable to see acquisitions and mergers really begin to pick up.

Is Tilray finally a buy?

Canada's top pot producers have all seen their valuations shoot higher this year -- that is, except Tilray(NASDAQ:TLRY). Over the first five months of the year, Tilray's market cap has slipped by an unsightly 25%. Worse still, the company's valuation has now been cut in half from its former high.

Yesterday, Tilray posted better-than-expected first-quarter numbers that might give its stock a much-needed jolt heading into the second half of the year. Should investors buy into this strong quarterly performance? Let's dig deeper to find out.

Marijuana stocks to watch as we enter the second half of May

The year 2019 thus far has been pretty exciting when it comes to cannabis stocks.

With so many legislative changes and shifts in the public perception of the substance, it seems as though the potential with cannabis is quite endless. The majority of investments into the industry has been to companies that grow the substance in its raw form.

With this in mind, there is also a varying amount of potential with the companies that produce products or offer services to the market. The only rules about cannabis are to not be prejudice about the company and do the proper research before investing.
