Earth Science Tech, Inc. (ETST) Poised to Benefit from Fast Growing Hemp-Derived CBD Market
May 3, 2018
The tide of cannabis legalization sweeping over North America continues to rise despite intractable federal prohibition in the United States. In the U.S., 29 states and the District of Columbia allow cannabis for medical use. In nine of those jurisdictions, adult recreational use is also permitted.

The hemp-derived CBD market, in which it operates, is ballooning at a CAGR of 55 percent. At that rate, it will cross the billion-dollar mark in five years. With its ventures in leading edge, cannabinoid-based pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products, ETST is poised to share in that market growth.
Fuel is being added to the cannabis fire.

Vermont has already been there and done that. In January 2018, the state legislature passed a bill allowing recreational use, the first and only state to do so prompted by legislative initiative, rather than by being put to voters at ballot. In five more states…
