Marijuana stocks, on balance, were on the mend Tuesday after a dreadful Monday, with Canadian pot companies having a particularly strong session. At the close of trading, Aurora Cannabis (NASDAQ: ACB) stock was up by 9.3%, Canopy Growth (NASDAQ: CGC) shares were higher by 5.9%, and Organigram Holdings (NASDAQ: OGI) was in the green by 9.2%. 

On Monday, Aurora tumbled by 9%, Canopy Growth shares fell by 5%, and Organigram sank by 4.9%.
