Scroll through our stock lists located elsewhere in this magazine and undertake further research on just a few you are not familiar with. Even if you ultimately decide such a company is not within your risk parameters for investment, please investigate fully their sector and how the company intends to excel. Now look at our other publications and do the same – CannaConsumer, CannaHealthcare, etc. Our magazines are truly all things cannabis – investment, health, B2B, B2C, C2C, real estate, sustainability, cultural, etc. Read, learn, absorb, and retain. Once you take in all that cannabis touches you can then truly see why we refer to the industry as an ecosystem and why events can send shockwaves throughout this ecosystem – what we call Ecoforming.

Do you know someone with Type 2 diabetes? Once the appropriate diet and lifestyle are in place along with any medicines what is typically observed? A loss of excessive weight, a blood sugar balancing, improvements to memory and mood, proper blood pressure, and so forth. This industry is no different. A medical breakthrough leads to more pressure and influence to end prohibition which leads to greater demand for cannabis whether to treat that specific illness or condition as well as for preventative measures and to test effectiveness on other conditions. For the purposes of this publication, that translates into increased economic activity at the sector or even subsector level that includes increased demand. Increased demand often means increased revenues and therefore margins. In time if sustained and preferably growing, that translates into increased earnings per share (EPS) and therefore share price and market cap. Such an entity will itself become the target for M&A activity or will be targeting others. Yes, the consolidation curve. Keep it simple. One step at a time. Imagine yes but keep it manageable, achievable, and measurable.

Please read past articles if you have not because the typical Retail Investor in this space is indeed an entrepreneur and more so those that invest directly in the companies rather than buying shares on stock markets and one again CannaInvestor has you covered because we have a dedicated CannaInvestor Private Company edition. Our Canadian resident subscribers can get on our exclusive email list to be notified of private placement opportunities. Now combine the library of From The Retail Investors’ Perspective Articles and other articles for all of our magazines and now incorporate our industry leading strategies and stock lists … toss in the Technical Analysis teaching from Ryan Hum and his predecessor Dylan Rogers and you have one the most comprehensive knowledge bases and libraries available and all at no cost. Content from CPAs, Lawyers, Financial Advisors, CEOs, Doctors, etc … and all free. In my opinion, there is no better source. It is that simple and you know how much I like “simple”. Let’s now move to our case study and apply this week’s primary subject matter.
