Close: Cannabis Ends Session Rangebound Action Continues
Session closes with the following read. Neutral macro with VIX subdued at 14.4, 10Y at 4.68%, S&P +0.3%, DXY +0.2%. Mixed tape across the 326-ticker cannabis universe — 18 advancing, 14 declining (56% up). Analyst consensus tilts bullish — 44 Buys, 6 Holds, 7 Sells. Widest implied upside: CRDL to $6.90 (+357%). Elevated short interest concentrated in IIPR at 10.2 days-to-cover.
CIN TAKE
Rangebound action continues with no macro edge to press. Position sizing should reflect the lack of directional clarity — smaller, catalyst-linked, and quick to reduce. Wait for either breadth expansion or a macro break before adding conviction.
