Cannabis stocks are benefitting from a resurgence of interest as it becomes increasingly likely that it will be rescheduled legally. Less stringent legal codes will open up new opportunities, especially tax benefits, to cannabis companies. The loosening of regulations promises to raise all ships, so to speak.

The success of Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) stock in 2023 illustrates the chicken-and-egg question bedeviling the electric vehicle transition. In this case, the car is the chicken. Charging is the egg.

Writing about travel stocks may seem odd at a time when inflation is on the rise in lockstep with rising oil prices.
