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…

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. That meeting was packed. It was a collection of MMAR growers, folks who owned unused warehouses, rampant weed activists, accountants who were ready for…

Livewell (LVWL.V) and prosper: Undervalued cannabis play rips on the open
“Little Canopy” – that’s the two word slugline we came up with to describe Livewell Canada (LVWL.V), which hit the Canadian markets yesterday with a bang and ripped in early trading Friday, rewarding early private placement investors with a $0.95 to o$1.82 profit – so far.

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…

It’s happening again: FSD Pharma (HUGE.C) is an insider loaded, overvalued, restrictive mess
What the hell is in the vodka on Howe Street that all of a sudden every new weed deal is coming out tied in knots that enrich the core crew at the expense of everyone else? We’ve spent three days shining a light on MedMen’s (MMEN.C) terrible go-public structure, which enriches execs at the expense…

Aurora Cannabis (ACB.T) is either smarter than everyone else with its Medreleaf (LEAF.T) deal, or…
I have a theory, and I’ll probably never know if it’s accurate, but it goes like this: Medreleaf’s (LEAF.T) executives and board looked at its valuation recently and said to themselves, “It’s never going to be higher than it is right now. We should find someone to buy us right now because farming is hard work…

Scene in a casino: Two men at a roulette table, beers in hand. You: I love roulette! Me: Yeah, me too. How much are you putting down? You: $10k on red! Spin it! [red comes up] Me: Hey, nice going! What are you going to do now? You: Double down! Let it roll! [red comes…
