Opening Brief

Cannabis Opens Cautious Tone Prevails
Cautious tape with VIX at 19.3, 10Y at 4.63%, S&P -0.5%. Selective strength across the 326-ticker cannabis universe — 11 advancing, 22 declining (33% up). Analyst consensus tilts bullish — 44 Buys, 6 Holds, 7 Sells. Widest implied upside: CRDL to $6.92 (+486%). Elevated short interest concentrated in IIPR at 10.2 days-to-cover.
CIN TAKE
Analyst conviction is building faster than the macro will allow it to be paid. Buy-side upside targets look right on 12-month math but wrong on 12-week timing. Selective, catalyst-anchored positioning only — no broad-beta adds until macro cracks lower.
