USMJ Clear Evidence Of Short Squeeze Opportunity
So I've been reading/hearing about the Scottrade USMJ buy restriction ...
I read SynBee's great and extensive report on the matter ... thank you SynBee ...
And I've dug in some more ...
As SynBee pointed out, this is all about the National Security Clearing Corporation (NSCC) the parent of the DTC that we all in the OTC Penny world here so much about when it comes to Chills and Freezes.
The NSCC has imposed an illiquid security charge on at least Scottrade in regard to trading USMJ. So Scottrade has implemented a policy in reaction to the illiquid security charge, not to permit any further 'Buy' trades while the NSCC illiquid security charge is in place.
What exactly are NSCC illiquid charges? NSCC says:
Buy Side:
Open net buy quantity represents the total unsettled share amount per stock at any given time during a 3-day settlement cycle. Open net buy quantity must be less than 5,000,000 shares per stock for your entire firm
Sell Side:
Open net sell quantity represents the total unsettled share amount per stock at any given time during a 3-day settlement cycle. Open net sell quantity must be less than 10% percent of the 20-day average volume
So what does all that mean? It means that there are not enough actual physical stock certificates to represent all the electronic certificates that have been traded. How can there not be enough actual stock? One of two reasons.
1. The Stock Brokers back offices and the DTC and the TA are so bad at accounting that after three days they can reconcile all the electronic trades with all the physical certificates (not a likely explanation).
2. There has been so much selling short (selling stock when you don't actually have a stock certificate) that there are just not enough physical certificates to cover all the electronic sales.
The NSCC charge and the Scottrade policy is designed to force a reconciliation. If #2 above is correct, there are a lot of shares that have been sold short and the NSCC and Scottrade policy will stay in effect until the those holding the short positions can purchase real stock.
So Scottrade is only allowing sales. There is no sale without a purchase. Who is buying the Scottrade sales?
If real shareholders don't let there stock go, then the pressure on the short positions will continue to mount and eventually those holding the short positions will be willing/forced to pay a price that gives a real shareholder a ROI.

USMJ I/O is Under 3B
The Company did recently increase the Authorized to 10 Billion, but the financial report filed yesterday by the company shows the Issued and Outstanding is only 2,754,321,023.
The Company just announced $1 million in financing.
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/north-american-cannabis-holdings-inc-130000713.html
The Company carries other financial obligations on the books from previous financing.
In most cases, financing for public companies includes some kind of stock security. If the pps goes down, the Company has to have more stock authorized to maintain the security called for in the investment agreement.
Just because a company increases it's authorized, does not necessarily mean its increasing its Issued and Outstanding.

The counter logic to going zero bid after all the current bids (735M) are gone is just as ridiculous as going Zero Ask after the current asks of 456m are gone.
USMJ has momentum ... Neither ASKS OR BIDS are going anywhere ...
The balance of bids has never been the same from one day to the next, but its always been there ... these bids get filled and more come along.

USMJ and every high volume trading stock is bound to be impacted by MM "tricks of the trade."
I gave up a long time ago on my anger over mm manipulation and just factor it into my trading strategy.
MM's make plenty of money shorting stocks - only it's not called shorting when a mm does it. MM's are exempt from Reg SHO anti-shorting provisions. When a MM shorts a stock, it's just called "making-a-market" in the stock.
So when a MM sees volume in a stock, they sell short creating an artificial supply of stock. And in accordance with the Law of Supply and Demand - the supply (though artificial) overwhelms the demand and the PPS goes down. And there are the MM's to buy up the lower priced stock they need to fill the orders they shorted in the first place- wash, rinse, repeat, CA-CHING!
The hired trolls help to lubricate the feelings of despair when a PPS goes down and influence an emotional decision to sell at a loss.
BUT EVERY ONCE AND A WHILE a company comes out with GREAT NEWS and DEMAND overwhelms SUPPY - even a supply bolstered with artificial short shares. The PPS goes UP. The MM's will even willingly give up their shorting game in the face of BIG NEWS because once the enthusiasm for the BIG NEWS fades, he MM's will start their game all over again.
FORTUNES can be made buying a beaten up stock price and taking advantage of the BIG NEWS that triggers OVERWHELMING DEMAND. And after the MM's beat up the stock again, more BIG NEWS can create another and another and another opportunity for fortunes to be made on a beat up stock - wash, rinse, repeat, CA-CHING.
USMJ looks to me to be a long-term player. They have multiple irons in the fire - Cannabis Cafe; Cannabis Supplements; Hemp Clothing; Spinoff and Dividend and more. I believe USMJ will continue to deliver periodic BIG NEWS and the corresponding opportunity for DEMAND to OVERWHELM supply and for FORTUNES to be made.
I'm all in on USMJ.

Exclusive: U.S. investigates market-making operations of Citadel, KCG
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Federal authorities are investigating the market-making arms of Citadel LLC and KCG Holdings Inc, looking into the possibility that the two giants of electronic trading are giving small investors a poor deal when executing stock transactions on their behalf.
The Justice Department has subpoenaed information from Citadel and KCG (KCG.N) related to the firms' execution of stock trades on behalf of clients, according to people familiar with the investigation.
Authorities are examining internal data concerning the firms’ routing of customer stock orders through exchanges and other trading systems, to see whether they are giving customers unfavorable prices on trades in order to capture more profit on the transactions, according to the people familiar with the inquiry. Under Securities and Exchange Commission rules, U.S. brokers are legally required to seek the “best execution reasonably available” on orders, a standard meant to ensure that all customers get a favorable price and a swift trade.
The Justice Department has looked at a number of high-speed trading firms that pay retail brokerages to sell them their flow of customer orders for stock trades. This segment of the industry is known as wholesale market making.

The Next Marijuana Stock Rally Trigger; Rohrabacher-Farr Amendment
Austin, TX – May 11, 2016 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- The last year overall for marijuana stocks has not been stellar. It’s definitely a hot market and it’s here to stay. Even though the overall marijuana sector has been underwhelming, there have certainly been a few worthwhile standouts. The opportunity for reward in a legal marijuana market will continue to drive periodic successes and maintain overall interest. The one step back following the two steps forward in the various state and federal legal battles will sustain an ongoing cautionary cloud over the sector. Like the San Andreas Fault being overdue for a quake, the marijuana sector is overdue for its next surge of enthusiasm. The Rohrabacher-Farr Amendment might be the trigger that sets the next rock, rattle and roll event loose in the marijuana sector. It’s at least a harbinger of a marijuana stock rally on the horizon.
... We’re certainly going to keep an eye on two of our favorite marijuana/cannabis sector stocks and the moment – USMJ and PURA.

USMJ PURA DEA FDA AND DALLAS STARS
I posted yesterday that I thought the management team at USMJ was the REAL DEAL.
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=122403426&txt2find=usmj
PURA is part of USMJ now. I thought I’d cut and paste the resumes of the senior guys at USMJ and PURA and let their experience speak for itself. Pretty impressive backgrounds and completely appropriate for the business of USMJ and PURA. Bollen is former DEA and maybe even other 3 letter organizations. Rash has multiple FDA approvals under his belt. Given the Federal regulatory environment surrounding the cannabis business, I’d say these are some pretty good skills that probably come with some pretty good connections.
Shibley is a real-estate developer with some substantial projects under his belt – hotels and casinos in the Caribbean, for instance. Given that real estate is central to the cannabis industry – you have to have a place to grow and process, not to mention to market and distribute – and PURA has stated that its close to securing its first real estate asset in Colorado (CEO THE CEO JOINT PRESENTATION), I’d say Shibley is carry his weight in background and experience for PURA and USMJ. He built and sold a Hockey Arena to the Dallas Stars. This guy has some skills and connections.

USMJ Is-The-Real-Deal-Steering-Through-MJ-&-OTC-Sea-of-#@!%
Jordan Belfort from Hollywood's depiction made the entire penny market look like nothing but one great big scam.
With players like Jordan Belfort - and we've all witnessed or even known one or two of our own Jordan's - some measure of corruption, be it a majority of the OTC market or a minority, has shed a bad light on the entire OTC market.
... yet here will still all find our selves. What does that say about us? Are we from the "Hope Springs Eternal" school or have we read and live by Machiavelli? Hope or Machiavelli, we're all suspect of everybody else in this market. We're suspect of the market makers, the brokers, the other posters here on this board, and certainly the companies listed on the OTC.
Most of these companies are going to fail in the end. It's just statistics. So again, why are we here?
Hope or Machiavelli, success or failure of the company in which we invest, we're all here to make money. It's the one thing that ties us all together. The Machiavelli may be trying to take from the Hope, but the Hope ain't stupid. They know Machiavelli is out there.
So that leaves the companies. Even though they may not make it in the end, do we have a management team that's going to try ... and, do they have the wits about them to give it a good go? Both Hope and Machiavelli need a forthright, capable management team. Otherwise, there is nothing to Hope for nor anything to take advantage of.
I'm sold on USMJ. I think the guys there are stand up guys giving it a good go. Steve Rash takes all the heat, but don't forget about Ed Bollen and the two other founders that stay out of the limelight. They've been at this since 2013 and there still standing and swinging. I, for one, think their put-your-toe-in-the-water-on-a-few-cannabis-business-ideas-and-cultivate-the-ones-that-seem-to-show-promise is a good idea. All or nothing may seem romantic, but it's usually nothing in the end. USMJ's already got a few something' from their toe in the water strategy.
Instead of beating these guys up and maintaining the routine OTC suspicion of management teams, now going on three years, I think the USMJ management team has earned a benefit of the doubt.
They may be slow or late or even missed on a few business plan steps, but let's look at what they've done. The first industrial hemp crop in Vermont - featured on NPR. Anybody remember that? Played a key role in medical marijuana legalization in the State of NY. Again, anybody remember? Launched a clothing line, got shot down by a credit card vender and managed to relaunch the clothing line. Acquired City Blends. Has gotten EVERX product produced. Delivered on getting PURA reporting. Got a Patent for the extraction process they've licensed to commercialize.
The share price reflects a three way relationship - Hope, Machiavelli and the Company. No one's perfect and certainly not these three. But from where I'm standing, the Company is delivering better than not for an underfunded start-up carrying some baggage from previous management teams exploits. If the management team is holding up there end, don't we have to look at the other two parties in this three-way?
USMJ has no better chance of succeeding in the end than any other small, micro or nano business listed on the OTC. Being here to make money, I think this management team is at least going to deliver some (more) midterm successes along the way - like the AmeriCanna Cafe and PURA - that will result in some money making opportunities even if they don't ever make it to turning USMJ into the next Starbucks of Cannabis.
