Flowhub launches cannabis inventory management mobile App.

Sin Stocks OutperformanceSin stocks are a category of stocks from companies involved in “immoral” activities, like gambling, alcohol, tobacco, or weapons manufacturing. Many investment funds and individuals will refuse to invest in these sectors, causing an artificially low price for these stocks.But these are also highly profitable activities, leading to these companies generating over time massive cash flows, that can be used for acquisitions, share repurchases, or dividends.As a result, sin stocks significantly and consistently outperform the overall markets .Cannabis As An Emergent Sin Stock ClassCannabis is still considered at the US federal level as a fully illegal drug. Meanwhile, almost half of the US states have fully or partially legalized the production, sale, and consumption of cannabis. And this should be a very profitable business line, like most other “sin stock” activities.This creates a strange situation for cannabis companies. While legal, cannabis companies encounter a lot of problems with anything related to national-level regulation and laws.They are for example often forced to operate only with cash, which carries significant costs. They are also paying a lot more taxes than “normal” businesses
