The misty world of marijuana stocks


"One day, people are going to ask me how I became a millionaire," the Wolf tells me.

"And I'm gonna say, 'From weed stock.'"

The 35-year-old from Florida invests in US marijuana firms - many of which are booming - and as the pseudonymous leader of #WolfPack, a rapidly growing Twitter community, he shares information about those stocks with his followers.

His online persona, the "Wolf of Weed Street", is a parody of Jordan Belfort, the corrupt New York stockbroker played by Leonardo DiCaprio in Martin Scorsese's recent blockbuster.
