Why Investors Were High on Curaleaf Stock on Monday

  • One of the most high-profile retired athletes threw his considerable weight behind marijuana legalization on Monday, and that helped Curaleaf Holdings (CURLF 5.27%) and other pot stocks move higher. In that day's trading session, Curaleaf's stock price improved by more than 5%, a rate that far outpaced the bellwether S&P 500 index's 0.5% increase.
