Terra Tech Stock (OTCMKTS:TRTC) has taken a big hit in recent months. The stock is off almost 90% from its year-to-date peak. At $0.19, TRTC currently trades at its record lows.

It closed the last session up 11% and on big volume as well, indicating a positive change in investor perception of the stock. From here, TRTC looks primed for a powerful comeback.

History repeats itself

Terra Tech stock has a history of bouncing back. In November and December of 2015, TRTC was at one of its lowest price levels. But the stock sharply reversed course shortly after and by April of 2016 the stock had delivered a return of more than 457% to investors who gave it the benefit of doubt at its lows three months earlier.

Terra Tech was again at its lows in late October of 2017. But sharply changed course soon after and by December the stock had delivered a solid return of nearly 140% in a space of a little over one month to investors who took advantage of its low price in October.

Again in December of 2018, TRTC was at one of its lowest price levels. But the stock embarked on a recovery path soon after and by March investors who took advantage of its low price a few months earlier had seen their investments grow by 160%.

About Terra Tech Stock

Terra Tech is an American cannabis company. It operates several brands that serve both medical and adult-use cannabis markets. Its products are sold at big retailers such as Walmart and Kroger. The company stands to gain big from the legalization of cannabis at the federal level.

A history of bouncing back from its lows is only one reason Terra Tech stock looks attractive at the current price. But there are even more reasons to love TRTC for the long-term. Here are a few of the reasons to be bullish on TRTC.

• America takes significant steps to federal marijuana legalization

On November 20, the US House Judiciary Committee passed a landmark bill that seeks legalize marijuana at the federal level. The passing of the bill reflects the growing support for pot legalization in America. On November 14, Pew Research Center published a study showing that two-thirds of Americans think the time has come for the country to follow Canada’s lead and legalize marijuana at the federal level.

In addition to the House, the Senate also is looking at legislation on the legalization of marijuana at the federal level. There are also individual efforts to make that happen. For example, Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders last month promised to use executive powers to federally legalize cannabis in his first 100 days in the White House if he wins next year’s presidential election.

More than a dozen states have already legalized marijuana in some ways. But federal legalization of marijuana should significantly expand the domestic market for cannabis companies like TRTC.

• Terra Tech continues to robust revenue growth as profit margin expands

Terra Tech released its third-quarter financial results on November 12. It reported revenue growth of 131% year-over-year to $7.6 million. The company’s gross profit margin expanded to 50.6% from 33.2% in a similar period last year. TRTC reported revenue and gross profit margin improvements in the second quarter as well.

“As we look toward 2020, building shareholder value remains our primary goal and we are committed to adapting to the changing market in order to maximize our revenue growth,” commented Derek Peterson, CEO of Terra Tech.

• Terra Tech plans to return $20 million to shareholders through stock repurchases

Terra Tech plans to send millions of dollars back into the pockets of its shareholders. In September, the company announced a $20 million share repurchase program. In addition to putting money back in the pockets of shareholders, the stock repurchase program is also symbolic. It shows the leadership of Terra Tech thinks the market has mispriced the stock. Here’s what Terra Tech CEO said about the stock repurchase program:

“We believe that Terra Tech’s current market value does not reflect the underlying value of its business and future prospects and that implementing a share buyback program is the best way we can return value to shareholders.”

TRTC is undertaking restructuring measures to improve profitability and this has involved divesting assets that aren’t core to its long-term goal. For example, the company in August sold its Blum brand retail facility in Reno, Nevada. It sold the retail facility for $15 million. TRTC expects to unlock $36 million in cash from the sale of assets.

• Terra Tech in bid to lead in CBD market

Terra Tech will merge some of its operations with OneQor Pharmaceutical in a merger transaction that will make it a leader in the lucrative CBD (cannabidiol) products market. The global CBD products market was worth $1.5 billion in 2018 and is expected to grow to $17.3 billion by 2026.

Bottom line
