The Week’s Biggest Winner & Loser

Dow Chemical (DOW)

Dow Chemical (DOW) made a resurgence following the passage of the infrastructure bill in the Senate. While DOW only gained +2.73% for the week, that was enough to win it the spot of the Week’s Biggest Winner (wow, rough week!)

Canopy Growth Corp (CGC)

Canopy Growth Corp (CGC) and the rest of the cannabis sector got smacked this week, and while CGC didn’t take it as hard as some (check out Grow Generation (GRWG) in the Speculation in Play portfolio… ouch), this one had already been hated going into the week.

CGC lost another -5.69% and landed itself a spot as the Week’s Biggest Loser.

This Week’s Moves

Canopy Growth Corp (CGC): Added to Position

Canopy Growth Corp (CGC) sold off with the rest of the cannabis / recreational marijuana sector this week, dipping down to $18.50 on Thursday and triggering a buy order I had in place.

The order raised my per-share cost $0.85 from $3.20 to $4.05. From here, my next buy target is $16.05 and my next sell target is around $55 (quite a range, I know, but such is life in the volatile cannabis sector).

CGC closed the week at $18.06, down -2.38% from where I added Thursday.
