Isracann Biosciences (IPOT.C): The TGOD of Israel gathers a large early retail investor base
A few days ago, I published a story about our friends from HIKU/Tokyo Smoke/Doja/Saxx who, having exited from their last company with a $400m+ acquisition by Canopy Growth Corp (WEED.T), were quietly gathering investors for their next deal, Stately. That deal had closed quickly, with way more money looking to get in than they had…

The HIKU crowd are getting the band back together: Stately is now a thing
There’s a really important graphic in the investor presentation from the guys behind Stately, who were previously the guys behind HIKU/Tokyo Smoke, and before that were the guys behind DOJA, and before that were the guys who started the premium underwear line, Saxx. DOJA wasn’t a big play. It was a nice little facility in…

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…

HIKU Brands (HIKU.C) and WeedMD (WMD.V) to merge, creating vertical integration beast
If there’s been a knock on HIKU Brands (HIKU.C), nee DOJA, by the critics over the last year, it’s been that they don’t grow enough actual weed. Sure, they’ve nailed the branding side and they did a big deal to grab the most recognizable retail brand in Canada in Tokyo Smoke, and they have retail…

Stop saying ‘this is a good time to buy’.. it’s not. It’s a crash. Back away from the keyboard.
Jesus crap on a pogo stick, you people never learn. So last week, right when we said it would, the weed market began to prolapse. And on social media all I heard was, “This is a great time to buy on dips.” Early this week, it kept rolling downhill, and on social media all I…

Called it: Invictus MD Strategies (IMH.V), Abcann (ABCN.V) and DOJA (DOJA.C) defy weed market gravity
