The company has also started a new business with another company to invest in different weed assets and make more money. The company has also bought some assets of a big weed company in Michigan, which is a state in the US where weed is legal. SNDL stock is very risky, but it could be an opportunity for the less risk averse investors.

Per TradingView, SNDL stock has a strong buy rating as SNDL stock has a maximum price target of $3.25, which implies a potential increase of 3.25% from its current price of $1.36.
