It’s Weed Wednesday: Canadian cannabis is legal, but what does it all mean?
If you thought weed stocks were going to run when the new Canadian cannabis laws came in, guess again. Those had been baked into share price for over a year so, if anything, we at Equity.guru expected today to be the stock price yawner it has so far been. But that’s not always going to…

Sold out: Which Canadian cannabis brands are winning on day one?
Recreational cannabis is legal in Canada, praise Jesus. But anyone who thought pre-rolls would be falling from the sky on day one is living in a fantasy world. Queues are long, stores are already running out of hot sellers, and online traffic is proving hot with looky-loos. Assuming you can find a store that is…

Canopy Growth Corp (WEED.T) has $5 billion to buy something: What’s on the list?
I’ve written this story three times in as many days, because every time I get to the bottom and am ready to post, the valuations of everything seem to have changed. So, to hell with it: I’m sticking the landing on this version. Time for Equity.Guru to veer off market news and into fantasy sports…

Ascent Industries (ASNT.C) lands on the CSE Thursday: You’ll want to dig in on this
A few years back, when Health Canada wasn’t really handing out cannabis grow or sales licenses, I attended a meeting in a crappy chain restaurant by the highway in North Richmond.

iAnthus Capital (IAN.C) bucks the downward weed trends with US dispensary plans
I missed it. Y’all can point and laugh, but when folks said to me a year ago, “Hey, what about iAnthus Capital?” (IAN.C), I shrugged and said, “I can’t keep an eye on everyone,” and went back to my toys because it was small and US focused and meh. iAnthus, to me, back then, was…

Brands, brands, brands: You want ’em, we got ’em, but some aren’t what you think
In 2014, I said before a crowd at one of the first cannabis company conferences, ‘forget growing weed – nobody invested hard in barley and hops after prohibition ended – they wanted to invest in brands, the Seagrams and Canadian Clubs and Budweisers, that got the maximum margin out of every ingredient.’ I’ve said similar…

You get me on camera on a Friday afternoon and ask me about shitty market deals, you better make sure you have a lot of tape.
