While we know that not all news events are predictable or allow us to react to instantaneously, paying attention to mainstream media can sometimes give us vital clues about how other investors may react to your corresponding holdings, such as the recent vaping related deaths. Being able to react to news events that are not company-specific and applying them to a particular company can be very beneficial if you keep on top of major news that could potentially affect your cannabis investments.
