Today, one of the big movers in the market is Incannex Healthcare (NASDAQ:IXHL). Currently, shares of IXHL stock have surged more than 100% higher in afternoon trading. At today’s peak of $90, the stock actually roughly quadrupled over yesterday’s close.

Such a move is likely to raise eyebrows. Indeed, this Australian cannabis company is not on the radars of many investors. That said, with a $2 billion market capitalization after today’s rise, perhaps IXHL stock is on plenty of radars now.

For investors considering this producer of medicinal cannabinoid products, perhaps there’s a strong growth thesis. Recreational cannabis is one thing — and it has proven to be a difficult business. However, on the medicinal side of this industry, there may be more appetite for long-term investors to jump in. The prospect of patents and other pharma-style moats could entice investors to look at IXHL stock.

Today’s move appears to be on little news. However, for investors who have had their interest piqued, let’s dive into a few things to know about Incannex Healthcare and its shares.
