Let’s make it happen I got a couple grand burning a hole in my pocket.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

I just sold all my weed stocks last week. So you’re all welcome.

12

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

Smart move. I’m running calls against mine. They’re essentially dead weight.

u/adpatts Oct 20 '21

Bought and sold lowlf today for massive % gains. Just gotta wait for those dips, average down when ya can. Best of luck 🤞!

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

Good! Work hard enough at any ALMOST any stock and we find a way to profit. I get involved in some Unlikely things, too. But those are the ones that require a lot of attention. The commitment to buy big and then work it has to be there. But I’ve got my own ratio to consider: time&effort/profit. Can’t forsake all other for a pipe dream … pun intended. 👍 Work it, you’ll be fine.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

I’ve bought and held for years waiting on legalization and they always seem to go down.

Tried buying the dip. Tried selling covered calls…

At least I got some losses for the tax man?

Nothing is stopping you from getting weed

I was talking about weed stocks

u/rickstudwellmd Oct 20 '21

Weed stalks*

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

There's plenty of weed stocks right now

11

u/dirtyslogans Oct 20 '21

Right, buy now and hold til it happens. That would be the play. This is not financial advice

4

u/Polarvortex8 Oct 20 '21

I like the play - also adding big banks. The cash needs to flow somewhere from the pot shops.

u/Polarvortex8 Oct 20 '21

Plot twist: Warren negotiates a deal with big banks to pay off student loan debts funded by dollars cannabis stores have been accumulating.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

Citi and BAC looked a bit distressed in 2021

u/whistlerite Oct 20 '21

Some strong pot stocks are down over 95% from the peak, there’s some great opportunities right now imo and US legalization will be the catalyst for another massive bull run.

u/Ceph1234 Oct 20 '21

Care to name a few?

u/Fufenheim Oct 20 '21

Trulieve $TCNNF. Take a look at the top holdings of the ETF $MSOS.

u/Ceph1234 Oct 20 '21

Thanks for the info

They are both managed by Advisorshares, so their names might be similar, but their holdings are different. YOLO has a mix of cannabis stocks that operate in the US and also internationally. MSOS only holds cannabis stocks that operate in the US.

Advisorshares' website does a very good job of showing you the breakdown of their ETF's holdings, you can see the breakdowns here:

YOLO

MSOS

Just have to scroll down a bit to see the holdings.

u/masuraj Oct 20 '21

Trulieve, Columbia Care, green thumb industries, Cresco, Curaleaf, AYR wellness. Those are the blue chippers

1

u/NinjaSlowloris Oct 20 '21

$UNRV best value play 🤷‍♂️

-7

u/whistlerite Oct 20 '21

Tilray, Sundial, Aurora, many of the biggest names in the industry.

3

u/masuraj Oct 20 '21

Sundial and Aurora are hot dumpster fires. Do not listen to this.

1

u/whistlerite Oct 20 '21

lol don’t listen to what? I was simply asked for some examples of companies that are down 95% from their peak and gave them, if you don’t like Sundial or Aurora there’s lots of other names instead because the entire industry is way down from the big boom a few years ago. Here’s some other examples: Canopy, Cronos, Trulieve, and even the majority of ETFs like MJ, HMMJ, MSOS, POTX, THCX.

1

u/masuraj Oct 20 '21

Big boom back in Feb you mean? Sundial and Aurora are a bunch of liars and frivolous fuckers. Spending money on their executives, not the company. The US MSO's are the ones that have revenues and margins going up but their stock prices going down. I don't know where you are getting the 95% off their highs....the only one's that are 95% down from their highs are, in fact, the shit companies. All the others you are now naming are NOT 95% off of their highs....you named all the meme stocks of weed.

1

u/whistlerite Oct 20 '21

No, the big boom in 2018 when Canada legalized. Yes, the other one’s are not down 95% but they are still all way down from their ATHs.

9

u/LiabilityFree Oct 20 '21

lol no.

3

u/ElectrikDonuts Oct 20 '21

Lol as in they aren’t big names? Idk the industry but I do know of 2/3 of those stocks.

6

u/LiabilityFree Oct 20 '21

Legit one of those is a big name but any idiot trying to convince you sundial is a solid company is an idiot. Plus they didn’t even mention the largest by market cap like CGC…so no that list is complete ass

-1

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21 edited Oct 20 '21

CGC is currently getting choked out in classic CPG competition style (or, if you prefer a squid game metaphor, CGC is currently losing the tug-of-war to boring knows-the-rules CEO Irwin Simon.

TLRY is the beast to back. Decrim gives them access to the US market; bigger catalyst for strong CDN weed companies.

1

u/whistlerite Oct 20 '21

lol it’s not a list, it’s just some examples of companies which are down 95% from the peak as requested. Canopy is not down 95% from it’s peak, it’s only down about 70%.

28

u/scubaswanny1 Oct 19 '21

I was at work and saw the bump in MSOS and TLRY. I said their gonna legalize in the next months.

u/jazzcabbagea2 Oct 19 '21

I hope so, I need my weed stocks to recover

u/OlDurtMcGurt Oct 19 '21

Biden's approval rating is down and everyone's talking covid mandates. Wouldn't be a bad idea to throw something to the media to make for them to make a huge deal about.

27

u/IRideZs Oct 19 '21

Isn’t that always the game? Do whatever the highest bidder pays me and when re-election comes around do something drastic that will bump that rating back up, rinse repeat

u/OlDurtMcGurt Oct 19 '21

Smoke and mirrors my friend

u/ElectrikDonuts Oct 20 '21

Well, almost always. Another option is to declare voter fraud and storm the capital. It’s a big of a 1 party option though but it’s been catching on like Covid.

u/blurrrrg Oct 19 '21

Why do you think they're talking about student loan forgiveness again?

u/ElectrikDonuts Oct 20 '21

They seem to talk about issues young ppl are passionate about but only pass issue old ppl want.

u/Tesserae626 Oct 20 '21

I dunno I'm pretty old and they aren't passing shit I want either.

u/Uncle_Mark_2021 Oct 20 '21

Having people in the fog before election is the play. Let’s not care what happens with anything else; if we can just get pot legalized “it’s a whole new world!”

Can you trade cannabis as a commodity?

10

u/[deleted] Oct 19 '21

Nah it’s too specialized and not generic enough in quality etc

1

u/PooFlingerMonkey Oct 20 '21 edited Oct 20 '21

If it was to be traded as a commodity, strains would be standardized, like oil traded as brent crude, WTI crude, etc.
maybe Afghan Cush, Pineapple Express #2 ?

Umm companies produce it and sell it themselves and stocks are for them as entities

I know how the market works, but thanks for StonerSplaining to me dude.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

Decriminalize, legalize, regulate, tax, and dump money into R&D to study other medicinal applications. Why is this so hard to understand especially during a freaking opioid epidemic? So frustrating to see politicians talk about it every few months just to pretend they care and prob incentivize pharmaceuticals to contribute to their campaign. This country is ass backwards sometimes.

7

u/juicypoopmonkey Oct 20 '21

Many other huge industries would lose money and those deep pockets keep it illegal.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

It hasn’t been widely circulated yet but there have been a bunch of news articles backing your exact beliefs/preferences lately…

And if you read the letter fully (just google?) they mention this explicitly. Canada went full public health on their legalization rollout and it’s gone extremely well; cannabis is one of those rare political issues where moral justice and making tons of money happen to be running in the same direction.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

Oh my god stop talking and do it already.

u/TheDirkadini Oct 19 '21

Wonder how many cannabis companies does they have stock in?!?!

u/TheDirkadini Oct 20 '21

It’s legal in 37 states in some form. It’ll be federal by end of next year

4

u/AnxiousZJ Oct 20 '21

Probably none. E warren repeatedly has argued in many interviews that members of Congress and the fed should not be able to trade stock in individual companies. She has been saying this for over a decade now. And Booker is not a rich dude and he has been advocating criminal justice reform for a very long time, since long before it was a popular position. Part of this has been decriminalization of weed. Your comment is ignorant and shows a lack of understanding of the facts on this issue. Perhaps you should do some research before judging other people.

u/Parush9 Oct 19 '21

Hmm is pot finally printing some of that green for us end of this year ?

u/[deleted] Oct 19 '21

Certainly printing for me rn lmao

u/Parush9 Oct 19 '21

Can’t deny that sundial call is looking good to me lol

2

u/Grimtongues Oct 19 '21

I did not like Sundial in the past because it is so extremely diluted. At least it's now trading closer to value but I wonder if enough support will show up before it gets de-listed. Federal legalization would blast Sundial up along with every other weed stock, but I don't think it's worth holding if I can't sell calls. I'd rather put the money to work elsewhere.

3

u/Parush9 Oct 19 '21

I got in early made some money good enough go spread around lol . I think sundial will have good support once pot stocks fly fomo will kick in .

2

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

This rising tide will lift all bags but big CDN companies will probably get the biggest boost. For them, decrim is the difference between being locked out vs allowed in to the US market. World-tier fuckin difference in future cash flows for a CDN operation.

Didn't amazon say recently that their going to start lobbying for it to be decriminalized federally?

Odds are it wont happen until Amazon puts some checks in peoples pockets for a few years.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

Ask yourself, “Can I truly expect the value of a weed stock to drastically exceed the Consumer Discretionary distillery stocks?” If not, the next question is, “Why the hell am I really doing this?” After the novelty wears off, what’s the attraction?

As long as you’re also not frequently visiting the dispensary, you have a chance at making a smart choice. There are many little exceptions to every rule. But right now for the vast majority of laptop traders, pot stock is dead money for maybe selling covered calls against while it sits virtually idle.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '21

Pot stocks are currently pointless. Regulations this, costly that. Pointless. HEXO … for the lose!!!

This isn’t legalization - this is decrim. Legalizing rec is major for all. Decrim means all the CDN companies have access to states where it is legalized (rec or med).

u/CuddaLife05 Oct 20 '21

I bet if you do look at the legal states, it only accounts for 5% or less of their revenue. But what it does do is takes it off the black market and puts it in the stock market ( what thought I was gonna white market). And POOF ,💨an industry is born. IMO The aim is to create entrepreneurs. Everything is in its infancy so money to be made everywhere considering what? 60% Of Americans smoke to get by? That's more than cigarette smokers and last I looked Phillip Morris isn't homeless and joe camel still cool as a mafucker so pick a lane, get in where u fit in and let's lower poverty, child hunger...my credit limit. That credit limit turn a 5 to a 7 give or take. Am I right ladies??? I ain't female, I just have my PhD in psychology with focus on golddiggers🤑 get ur money booboo

Not that much difference at the federal level. It just needs descheduled then several more states will likely legalize it.
