Close: Cannabis Ends Session Rangebound Action Continues
Session closes with the following read. Neutral macro with VIX at 15.3, 10Y at 4.65%, S&P +0.0%, DXY +0.2%. Selective strength across the 326-ticker cannabis universe — 10 advancing, 23 declining (30% up). Analyst consensus tilts bullish — 44 Buys, 6 Holds, 7 Sells. Widest implied upside: QNTM to $12.50 (+303%). Elevated short interest concentrated in CLVR at 18.3 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.
