No matter on which side of the political aisle you sit, election years are a great opportunity for investors.
We here at Money Morning are not concerned with who is in the White House. Our only mission is to help readers make money no matter the political, economic, or social landscape.
Whatever the reality, we want to have a plan to exploit it.
And Bernie Sanders' marijuana legalization plan could blow the lid off the industry...
Here's something you may not know about Joe Montana.
After he retired from football, he started a another career.
He launched his own investment fund.
And he's been extremely fortunate.
Now, he's teaming up with Mike Ward, the founder of the National Institute for Cannabis Investors (NICI).
Caliva is a Californian cannabis startup that's getting a big boost from legendary quarterback Joe Montana.
Montana's venture capital fund, Liquid 2 Ventures, has a stake in Caliva.
The marijuana startup raised $75 million funding last year.
The company offers retail cannabis stores and same-day delivery and is using the funding to expand its operations.
But there are even more opportunities out there, you just need to know where to look.
And Joe Montana is here to help.
A sense of panic has taken hold of the market this week.
On Monday, we saw algorithms drive the market lower; most of the downdraft was computers and deleveraging. That's why the move felt so aggressive and so quick.
Tuesday followed with the human trader reaction, as more fear creeped in around the edges. The likelihood of a major coronavirus outbreak in the United States is increasing, and as such, related panic selling will not cease anytime soon.
The only question now is how bad the disruption will be, but one thing I can assure you of is that panic selling in moments like this has proven time and again to be the wrong strategy.
You have to remember how the game is played, no matter the severity of the event impacting markets, and that has been and always will be buy low and sell high.
Right now, we're getting our "buy low" moment: a chance to continue to outperform the market over time.
Everyone will debate on when to get in, but it's nearly impossible to time it perfectly. Instead, you should think about how to get in.
That mentality is the key to profits – and here's exactly what you can do to help you win every time… Full Story
So here's exactly what to do...

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is reeling after a massive two-day selloff that wiped away $1.7 trillion from the domestic stock market's value.
With earnings season in full swing, investors will take any value they can find to combat the uncertainty.
It's no secret that the cannabis markets in the United States and Canada are the largest in the world. Some estimates value the combined market at $35 billion in just a few short years.
While we're excited about the profit potential coming out of these regions, there's a faster-growing market that deserves investor attention right now…
In just a couple of years, Latin America has stepped out from the shadows. Consumer demand is skyrocketing, labor is dirt cheap, and the geography offers the perfect growing conditions – an ideal combination for huge margins.
Revenue in the region is starting to ramp up as well. Legal sales in 2018 were around $125 million, but analysts expect this to explode 100-fold to $12.7 billion by 2028.
And we're seeing new evidence to support these estimates every day. Large cultivation operations are popping up. Deals are being signed to export Latin American cannabis to Europe and Canada.
But most importantly, the opportunities in Latin America are starting to capture the attention of the world's largest cannabis firms. Newer companies are even getting their operations up and running in these countries.
This, in turn, gives cannabis investors nearly endless opportunities in yet another growing cannabis market – and a chance to get in on the two firms that have a leg up on all the rest… Full Story

The stock market is getting slammed by worries about the impact of the coronavirus, with Apple stock among the hardest-hit names.
Apple is a prime example of a major U.S. multinational company with deep ties to China that makes it particularly vulnerable in a crisis like this.
And the longer the coronavirus outbreak paralyzes the Chinese economic machine, the worse the bite out of earnings – not just for Apple, but for thousands of U.S. companies.
It's actually much worse than what the "experts" are telling you...
A sense of panic has taken hold of the market this week as the coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to spread.
On Monday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 1,031 points (3.6%). Today, the Dow dipped another 650 points (2.4%) in afternoon trading.
But remember, in times like this, panicking is the absolute worst thing you can do.
Here are three steps for weathering this type of market...
Earnings season has come and gone. And as usual, some stocks disappointed while others surprised to the upside.
The company we're bringing you today beat the average Wall Street analysts' estimates by 36% when it last reported on Feb. 11.
But somehow the stock is down 10% to date.
We think Wall Street has presented a great opportunity to own a wonderful business at a descent discount. You don't want to wait until it's back up 10% before buying.
