Both hemp and cannabis are increasingly popular industries. But while these two industries are based on the same plant, there is a key difference. Cannabis stocks are shares of companies that offer THC and CBD products, more commonly known as marijuana. Hemp refers to products with little to no THC. Hemp is most commonly used in clothing as an eco-friendly fiber and in health foods, like vegan hemp milk.
We've compiled a list of popular hemp stocks. The best stocks depend on your portfolio and investment goals — while volatility can be ideal for day traders, long-term investors will want to look to stocks with steadier gains over time. And if you're looking for more info on cannabis stocks, read our guide to investing in marijuana.
