To make life-changing money in the stock market you must be able to identify trends before the masses.

IMHO, a wave of M&A activity is going to hit fast and hard in 2017. Unilever/Kraft is a sign of what's to come. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-unilever-m-a-kraft-idUSKBN15W18Y

Even if M&A activity just keeps pace with the past two years, that means there will be another 11,000 US deals in 2017. https://imaa-institute.org/m-and-a-us-united-states/

I think that number will be closer to 16,000 in 2017 because of the more favorable regulatory environment in the US and also because companies are going to be able to repatriate Billions of dollars currently held offshore.

The catalyst of M&A activity might actually surprise you. It's going to be driven by the largest, most powerful law firms in the US. So called White Shoe Law Firms wield a massive amount of power behind the scenes. So why do I think law firms are going to drive M&A in 2017? Because the top firms have been making a ton of money helping corporations comply with Dodd-Frank, and Dodd-Frank is on the way to the scrap heap. Record law firm profits-per-partner will instead be generated in the M&A arena.

Congress is going to green-light Big Banking in MMJ this year. And where Big Banking goes, Big Pharma follows. https://blumenauer.house.gov/cannabis-caucus

IMHO, MMJ companies will be gobbled up once there are no conflicts with the DEA and FDA on cannabinoids. $OWCP has a nice pipeline of cannabis IP and in my opinion will be an outstanding candidate for an acquisition, especially after a few of the 2017 milestones are met.

It's a very exciting and profitable time to be invested in MMJ stocks my friends!
