When investors in Canada made early inroads into cannabis stocks, who would have thought that returns could be so high. Just in case you failed to capitalize on them, do not worry as psychedelic stocks seem embarking on a similar trajectory.
Regulatory support and encouraging studies endorsing claims of health benefits of psychedelic drugs is likely to set the industry on the path of future growth. The estimated potential of the psychedelics is responsible for a rise in companies working in this field and developing medicines from Psilocybin, the hallucinogenic compound found in magic mushrooms.
Investors now have a variety of options for investing in psychedelic stocks. On that note, let's take a look at some rising psychedelic stocks that the market could trip on in 2021:
Mind Medicine Inc. (NASDAQ:MNMD, MNMD:US)
This psychedelic biopharma company is engaged in the development of medicines and therapies to address mental health disorders and addiction. MNMD share prices had a stellar growth of 938 per cent in the past year and returned about 19 per cent year-to-date (YTD).
The stock was trading at US$ 3.62 at market close on Thursday, June 10, about 37 per cent down from the 52-week high of US$ 5.77 per share on April 27, 2021. If you are willing to sink funds in psychedelics stocks, MNMD stock good be a good entry point.
