Sundial stock forecast
The Cannabis sector had one of its strongest performances of the year in the shortened Juneteenth holiday week. Sundial added 33% over the past five trading days, while Tilray (NASDAQ:TLRY) and Aurora gained 16.8% and 21.4% during that same timeframe. There wasn’t any specifically bullish news from the industry, rather it seems that many of the stocks are finally forming a near-term bottom. All of these stocks are still down significantly in 2022, and are trading in the single-digits.
