According to Forbes, investors are getting more bullish on the psychedelic industry. And part of the reason is because research noted that this sector could bring in a whopping $6.85 billion by 2027. When compared to other newer industries, even those that claim to be revolutionary, this figure certainly stands out.
However, the pace could only be just picking up in this sector. With increasing evidence of psychedelics’ efficacy in treating mental health disorders, acceptance of this once controversial substance is growing. This is why many regulators have approved the use of psychedelics in mental health settings, and even actively support the companies at the forefront of the field.
For investors who have not already considered psychedelic stocks, or for those looking to create a more exciting financial impact, these three red-hot psychedelic stocks could be a great place to start.
