Marijuana Update: Ravenquest (RQB.V), CROP (CROP.C), Lifestyle Delivery Systems (LDS.C), iAnthus (IAN.C), and trust
The ability to trust the people you put your money into is of utmost importance. ‘Management’ is oft cited as one of the pillars of a company’s success, but management in this instance could also be defined as ‘trust’. If I asked to borrow money from you in the street, your ability to trust me…

Marijuana update: Speakeasy shuffle, Sproutly looming, Canopy CEO sell-off
Was just looking at a bunch of news releases, trying to figure out which to cover when I remembered, ‘didn’t you just use to do all of them?’ Why yes, self, I did. So let’s give ‘er to everyone, just like the old days. NOTHING EASY AT SPEAKEASY (EASY.C) I’ve had several nice discussions with…

Canopy Growth (CGC.NYSE) is losing $41 per second – does that matter?
Canopy Growth’s (CGC.NYSE) Q4, 2019 results reported a net loss of $323 million Canadian dollars. That’s $41 loss per second. $2,500 per minute. $150,000 per hour. $3.6 million dollars a day. By any reasonable measure, that’s heavy bleeding. Yes – cannabis is a frontier market. It’s so new, it’s still bathed in amniotic fluid. Eighteen…

Pasha Brands (CRFT.C) board of directors is a who’s who of cannabis stars
I can count on one finger the number of times I’ve looked at a board of directors announcement and thought ‘wow’. That count is currently at one. Pasha Brands (CRFT.C) has killed it out of the gate with a board consisting of Patrick Brauckmann, Rosy Mondin, Scott Walters, and Hugo Alves. You either know those names or you’re…

Pasha Brands (CRFT.C) takes a contrarian weed grow approach: Smaller, but plentiful
Ask anyone who has more experience growing cannabis than a sophomore college student whether they’d be keen to grow a million square feet of weed, and they’d likely point out the problems inherent in such a task. Automation is nice. Hordes of newly trained staff are fine. Hooking up to a nuclear power station and…

Shell Game: How Wayland Group (WAYL.C) built a paper empire and the loan that may drag it under
PROLOGUE: Cannabis companies, as we know them in our minds, rarely exist. Oh sure, some have buildings and staff, some grow things and others might even have a license. But even those with big buildouts and massive market caps are, for the most part, a promise of what’s to come, maybe, some time, kinda. But…

SLANG Worldwide (SLNG.C): I have seen the future of cannabis, and this is it
That’s a pretty salesy headline, huh? I mean, I couldn’t have given a higher five to a company in an ultra competitive space with billions in valuations flying around the world than to say, ‘this is the future.’ What I’m suggesting is, one company is on the ultra right path, and not many others are.…

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…

Green Organic Dutchman (TGOD.T) must burn for a few days in order to regrow, bigger and better
A reader asked us a few days ago why The Green Organic Dutchman’s (TGOD.T) stock was plummeting over the last few weeks. It’s a fair question. While we were coming up with an answer, TGOD got its sales license. “We have been perfecting our organic grow methodology in Ancaster and are prepared for the Q1…

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…
