I saw this question asked on a forum today and figured I was the perfect person to answer it. I will share my answer here for further discussion.
Inside of the "pot industry" there are many emerging markets, such as dispensaries, hydro supplies, lighting, tents, fans, nutes... the list keeps growing. The wise investor looks for this type of emerging market that typically shows incredible upside potential, and with little chance of loss. Not only are these investments in growth industries, but at present they are also in limited markets, allowing a very efficient use of advertising/marketing and ease of targeting efficient manufacturing and distribution sites within the hotbed of activity in the legal states. Someone who could not make money in such a market, just isn't trying hard enough.
So, as a professional economist, I would advise that any investment involves risk, but if done right, I think that the risk of loss in investing in the expanding "pot industry" is low, and the upside potential is virtually unlimited.
