So just wondering if anyone is trading MJ stocks, and North American Cannabis Holdings, Inc. (OTC: USMJ) in particular? I've been slowly accumulating shares for the past 6 months - at first if was just on a whim, when prices were at 0.0001 (yes that's one one hundredth of a cent ;?) because it only cost $100 to purchase one MILLION shares. I started with 3 million, just so I could tell my friends that I own 3 million shares of XYZ, lol.
I had done some research and liked what I read, but I wasn't really looking at this as an investment so much as a straight up gamble, like playing the lottery but with better odds. As time went by and I did more research, the price finally started to move out of the .0001-.0002 channel it had traded in as news of a deal with Puration (OTC: PURA) was soon forthcoming, so I added more to my position. Eventually that deal went through and by Oct I had close to 5 million shares and ended up with a nice divident paid out in the form of almost 22,000 shares in PURA.
After that deal there was a slight pullback on consolidation during which I bought another 4 million shares bringing my total to 9 million and at a total cost of $2,560 (not including brokerage fees which I'm guessing were about $60). Now the interesting thing about this is something I call the power of really big numbers, because at this level (ie millions of shares), even the tiniest of moves results in a fair amount of money. If you do the math you'll see that a move of just one one-hundredth of a cent comes out to $900, which certainly blows my mind ;?D
Now the news began to swirl about a similar deal with Alternet Systems (OTC: ALYI) and the release (finally) of a CBD infused beverage (Everx) which is causing the stock to move up quite strongly until today's close at 0.0013, and when you do the math that comes out to a move of .0009 from the lows last week of .0004. To cut to the chase, iow I've made $9100 to date, PLUS the 22,000 shares of PURA @ 0.078 or another $1700, for a total profit of around $10,800, not too shabby for a shot in the dark gamble, lol.
Of course none of this counts until it's sold, and I am planning a sale in the next couple of days of a portion that will cover what I have invested, so that the rest is completely risk-free.
Then I'm hoping it hits .02 at which point I'll take a chunk of profit and then ride the rest in hopes it sees $1 and I make a couple of million (not the highest probability for that scenario, but it's my way of playing the lottery as I said ;?)
So, anyone else trading USMJ?
