What is missing in the APH Story?

Recreational of course...it's a rhetorical question :-)

So where is APH in the recreational market?  

RIGHT well

The Fact is...APH are a world class prescription provider ...

with amazing strategic expansion plans plus

and $400 Million in Cash and no debt.  

And the public float of shares is ¼ of ACB

APH total share float by June 28 will be  231,960,921.00 common shares

(210,125,411+PP=2,848,110+18,987,400 C$258,750,794. for 2,848,110+18,987,400 Common Shares )

Compare to ACB will have 1 Billion Shares Outstanding when CMED deal Closes

No doubt APH is a winner...but market makers know this too
and unfortunately they will decide when to rally the cannabis stocks and APH will rally .

But the fact is that  Anonymous sucked $129,577,096.00 profit from Buy

versus Sell Since April 13th HUGE Rally.

Just check out my posts on the anonymous manipulation taking place.

Price of PP $11.85 PP and Closed Today $12.06 today.

( its rumoured to be OVERSUBSCRIBED at $11.85.

The market manipulators held ALL Cannabis stocks down today

especially APH.

(APH  down from a 52 week high of  $24.75 Tuesday, January 9, 2018. )

But APH is a winning stock that should run to $30.00 with all their deals

and future acquisitions announcements. And that's why Shoppers(Loblaws) picked APH

Shoppers gave APH 1 of 3 contracts that are PENDING a license to sell online.

Where is the license , why the delay..it has to do with legalization of cannabis in my opinion.  

So this is overdue...Loblaws has been waiting for a license since 2016

based on the order fulfillment coming from APH delivered by Canada Post.

IMHO that's the next biggest event we have to look forward to,

Perhaps VIC has a secret plan to merge or acquire or partner to go after the recreational market?

And now we are in the quiet period, typically a PP requires a quiet period

And the fact that this PP has end date June 28 2018

Then any TSX LIsted company will be in a quiet period...until the deal closes.

( My Prediction:Pending:merger or acquisition or partnership)

When ? Good Question.

BUT I think this is the ONLY way that APH can make Billions is to add the Recreational Cannabis market to their strategic plans.

APH will have the potential to produce 20,000 kilograms of weed per month. (Vic interview)

Where are they going to sell ALL that thru worldwide prescriptions?

So let's hold on and get this puppy to $25.00-30.00 where it should be,

Vic bring us a deal that will rocket this stock in the future....

I hate to say this but I suspect Anonymous + Others

will hold APH down ... BUT it's the NEXT VERY BEST
cannabis stock to be in IF you can handle the ups and downs and the fast
drops in share price.

The market makers and the brokerages that play against
retail are buying selling and shorting over and over again.

And everytime the run the price down...STOP LOSSES are triggered,
and RETAIL takes a 10-20% loss period.

And that's why I don't use stop losses..it's all about Due Diligence
and then HOLD ON up and down. Be confident in APH.  

or play between the Bollinger Bands,SAR,Fibonacci,And News...
and day trade like many of us.

Regardless...we are probably in a quiet period until they close the deal
and get the cheque C$258,750,794 including the extra.

Anonymous Trading Who Are These People????

BREAKING DOWN 'Anonymous Trading'

Anonymous trading is primarily used to avoid tipping off the market of a pending action, which could lead to front-running behavior, tracking of proprietary trading, or jockeying for the best position in an order book. 

For instance, a large institutional buyer that's interested in acquiring millions of shares may not want to make their intentions known before they can complete the purchase. The risk is that smaller investors could bid up the price hoping to sell it to the institutional buyer for a quick arbitrage profit or pennying could be used to unfairly gain execution priority.

Anonymous trading may occur through two different venues:

1. Anonymous Exchanges - Many large stock exchanges started to offer anonymous trading when accessing the central order book due to competition from electronic communication networks(ECNs) that offer anonymous trading. Other stock exchanges offer hybrid trading systems that offer a choice of automated anonymous order execution and non-anonymous auction order execution.
2. Dark Pools - Many ECNs offer anonymous trading through dark pools that operate off of regulated national exchanges. Notably, these orders are only anonymous before and during execution rather than after execution. 

Most anonymous trading is conducted by specialists and options market makers and anonymous trades tend to be associated with a greater price impact, which suggests that those placing these orders are more informed than the average non-anonymous trader.

Benefits of Anonymous Trading

Anonymous trading can help reduce execution costs when used strategically to place orders, according to a 2011 paper in the Journal of Finance and Quantitative Analysis. In particular, anonymous orders have an average price impact that varied only between 10 and 12 basis points compared to five to 11 basis points for non-anonymous orders. That said, submitting a random order anonymously was not found to lower execution costs.

The best way to realize the benefits of anonymous trading is to take into account order characteristics, market conditions, and unobservable characteristics, such as information and investment strategy.
