THE Cannabis Picks In 2022 | Trade To Black Podcast

In this week’s Trade To Black Podcast, we again speak with Benjamin A. Smith with Anthony Varrell about the sectors that we cover. We focus on U.S. cannabis: with the hope of federal legislative action discounted in the near term, the focus shifts towards 2022 has commenced. It’s a tricky investing environment, with AdvisorShares Pure US Cannabis ETF (MSOS) still searching for bottom to stem the non-stop hemorrhaging that has taken place in 2021. The plurality of market watchers expect a rebound and sentiment remains high, but the headwinds of slower quarter-over-quarter growth and an uncertain regulatory environment remain. This is countered by the fact that Tier-1 MSOS remain very cheap according to growth valuation metrics, and its longer-term prospects look outstanding.

As usual, we also cover the crypto/NFT and psychedelics markets in the aftermath.

    Turning the biomass into Vape oil and other concentrates (significantly longer shelf life and price stability it would appear) are the way they’ve solved the problem.

    Verano is a 45 to 50 dollar stock.

    Thank you Shadd for correcting Benjamin on Tilray. It’s actually grossly undervalued and is well positioned for legalization in both Germany and the U.S.

    I think the wholesale price dropping is going to benefit MSOs because their customer base is accustomed to paying what their paying. IMO, retail prices stay the same, profit margins increase for those not dependent on wholesale revenue.



  5. Matt D on January 8, 2022 at 7:16 pm

    Curaleaf…. their SELECT brand is pretty much everywhere.



  6. Adam Skidmore on January 8, 2022 at 7:32 pm

    Verano is a $40 stock.

    Canada is a bad place to do business, I would never invest in a Canada company.
