Midday: Broad Pressure as Cannabis Holds Steady
Midday check-in on cannabis tape. Neutral macro with VIX at 15.5, 10Y at 4.62%, S&P +0.1%, DXY -0.2%. Broad pressure across the 326-ticker cannabis universe — 7 advancing, 24 declining (23% up). Analyst consensus tilts bullish — 44 Buys, 6 Holds, 7 Sells. Widest implied upside: CRDL to $6.92 (+413%). 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.
