It is little wonder that WTER rang the opening bell at the NASDAQ on January 23rd. The team has certainly been busy and I have little doubt that by the time you are reading this that there will be other material announcements. When I wrote my case study in December it seemed that everyone I spoke with had little to no knowledge about WTER and just two months later it seems all of the water cooler cannabis stock talk includes this company. Of course being on our Canadian edition’s cover in January brought WTER to the forefront of the analysts, institutions, investors, and leading professionals that subscribe to CannaInvestor Magazine. The share price of WTER rose a staggering 39% in one day of that edition’s release date.
