Midday check-in on cannabis tape. Neutral macro with VIX at 16.6, 10Y at 5.11%, S&P +0.5%. Mixed tape across the 326-ticker cannabis universe — 21 advancing, 12 declining (64% up). Analyst consensus tilts bullish — 45 Buys, 5 Holds, 7 Sells. Widest implied upside: QNTM to $8.00 (+232%). Elevated short interest concentrated in IIPR at 11.6 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.
