Medical Marijuana, Inc. Subsidiary HempMeds® Brasil Celebrates Major Features Across Several Marquee Brazilian Press Outlets
On Tuesday, Medical Marijuana made an announcement with regards to the fact that its subsidiary unit HempMeds Brazil had been featured in a range of press outlets in Brazil. In addition to that it had also been featured as part of an interview in the largest newspaper in the country Folha de S. Paolo.
The interview in question had been with regards to the launch of the company’s 6000 mg CBD product. It had been featured as the best cost-benefit CBD item in Brazil and it goes without saying that such press can only be a good thing for Medical Marijuana at this point. That being said, the news did not elicit any strong reactions from the investors and led to a selloff. It remains to be seen if the stock can manage to make a recovery today.
