Three non-weed deals you don’t know: ParcelPal (PKG.C), Clear Blue (CBLU.V), and Titan Medical (TMD.T)
If I was getting paid by the number of pitches I hear, I’d be making a lot more money than I do. Often, they’re terrible. And I include ‘just okay’ in the terrible column, because if your investment pitch isn’t lights out amazing, it’s death. Sometimes I hear pitches that I really love, but the…

1933 Industries (TGIF.C) vs 1964 Supply Co (Rubicon): Will heritage/art branding land with consumers?
We’ve written a lot about branding as it pertains to the cannabis space, and the challenges that will face any licensed producer as it transitions from growing to marketing to retail. Those challenges are plentiful; chiefly among them, you’re not allowed to market your weed brand in Canada. Can’t do it. Against the law. Not…

Here’s what’s next: e-Sports is happening right now, and hell’s coming with it
I’m about to land at the next Cambridge House extraordinary Future investor conference this week, with more speaking events than I honestly know what to do with. Part of the reason why they’re being tacked on is because we here at Equity.Guru have spent the last year telling you virtual reality/augmented reality is coming to…

Redemption tale: International Frontier Resources (IFR.V) told you they’d kick back
They’re crappy at blowing their own horn over at International Frontier Resources (IFR.V), so I’m going to do it for them. Here’s what I wrote back on July 24, in a story that IFR CEO Steve Hanson told me quietly, “Hurt.” A 50% drop in stock value is a tough day for any resource company…

Extraordinary Future investor conference: Get your ass off the couch, Sparky
Investors like to complain. “This company sucks, they never talk to investors.” “Insiders know about early financings and we’re always left out.” “Does anybody know about this company? All I can find is the investor deck..” Well, obviously nobody talks to you about their deals, their financings, their news, because you’re sitting at home reading…

Tilray (TLRY.Q) plummets $9.76 after insano run, because shorters are animals
When a new listing goes on a $25 to $95 run in the space of nearly three weeks, the forces of gravity building up over the top of it are always going to collect to breaking point. Observe Tilray (TLRY.Q), which IPOed on the Nasdaq at US$17 per share, and then went on the rip…

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…

Green Organic Dutchman (TGOD.T) organic CBD acquisition is a Euro ‘Hempco’ (HEMP.V)
The market has kinda shrugged at it, but The Green Organic Dutchman (TGOD.T) put out news yesterday they’re acquiring a significant European organic CBD oil brand, with associated licensed flower and seed production, consumer product lines, and multi-country distribution. It’s not a cheap deal, but they’re not buying a pipe dream. They’re buying legit players.…

Blockchain Foundry (BCFN.C): Sector be damned, work still needs to get done
If I walked into the Cactus Club on Burrard Street with two supermodels on my arm and an eight ball in my pocket and $5k sticking out of my mouth, and told the assembled Howe St crowd ‘this can all be yours, all you have to do is listen to me talk for five minutes…

MedMen (MMEN.C) legal demands clearer: Half a billion dollars from EquityGuhahahahaha
The Streisand Effect is what happens when a person or company sends out legal threats to stop people from seeing something and, in turn, makes that thing they didn’t want seen go viral. MedMen’s lawyers probably should have talked to their clients about this before they started sending us weird legal demands because wow, you…
