case study on Quinsam Capital over a year ago I think when it was trading around a dime and Quinsam pays a regular quarterly dividend. Investors that jumped on it made over 10x (>1000%) their money in just a few short months --- even today despite the overall 2018 bearish sentiment to date ... Quinsam remains up over 300% from that initial coverage.

I do not recall anyone discussing The Tinley Beverage Company before I did and the share price increased from $0.035 to almost $2 before retreating. In fact, few if any were as bullish on beverages as I was from the get go years ago. Another example can be found in the present where so many others are suggesting investors look at the US industry whereas I suggested a year ago that perhaps it was a good time to consider cashing out of Canada for a period and consider the US industry .. forward thinking ... being anticipatory .... and matching that with the companies that appear well suited for that prospective outlook.

I also look to see who a company may be partnered with. OK so literally on the fly here using our content and teaching that is available free every month to readers I think Emblem should hit these marks. Using Emblem as my example - and please this is for discussion purposes only to make the point and is not investment advice ... Emblem is partnered with the Oshawa Health Clinic. That clinic is the largest of its kind in Canada. Emblem is partnered with Durham College (Ontario). Durham College is considered by many as being at the forefront of post-secondary education in the industry with graduates reporting job placements in the industry. To me, both of those organizations (the clinic and the College) did their due diligence on what LP to partner with - that is reassurance. Emblem is expanding into Germany where medical benefits cover the cost of medical cannabis and where margins are much higher and of course Germany has more than twice our population.

In other words, I see boxes on the list getting checked off. Let's continue with Emblem ... using websites that provide Technical Analysis to me is not as organic as constructing one's own model in for example Excel but such sites do provide a quick hit - I like barchart.com and investing.com as they are free and do have some user defined modelling capacity. I literally looked up Emblem on investing.com as I am replying to you and it is a STRONG BUY. By contrast I also just checked Aurora, Aphria, CannTrust, and Canopy Growth - all of which are all STRONG SELL. Exactly as suspected and expected. That sentiment can change on a dime because TA on a very very basic level is projecting a trend.
