Love the cannabis sector and with most stocks 50% off spike highs the timing looks right. Any detail on why TLRY and SNDL? There are many other names I like far better but willing to be persuaded.

Hi Dave. I think it is probably inertia. If you look at volume in these tickers, it picked up at a point when they were near post IPO lows, and I would guess they were showing up on screens for tickers with high short interest. Since then, there hasn't really been anything to force people out of the stocks, and so there is a communify of people who want to cheerleader for them at any opportunity. Just try posting something negative about AMC on the forum and you'll see what I mean.


Contrast that with something like CGC, which was another ticker flagged by my models this week. Volume in CGC picked up affer it rallied.


Aside from that, WallStreetBets…

That sounds about right. Fortunately, figuring out what a company does is about the last step of my process - mainly to check that it isn't some microcap. I was a bit surprised that there was a $190bn company that I'd never heard of.

Sea Limited is an interesting choice. I agree that the stock would most likely go up post earnings. However, it is one of the most crowded and top momentum names. In fact it is one of the favourite stocks of index inclusion guys. I would rather take a contrarian position and sell it as we go into MSCI rebalancing (30-Nov).

Yeah. This is a $190bn e-commerce + gaming + payment company, which doesn’t even have a proper Wikipedia page. I guess nobody knows what does it actually do. It is trading at 30x trailing revenue and is losing ~$500mm per quarter.
