The Week’s Biggest Winner & Loser
Canopy Growth Corp (CGC)
After the complete collapse of the cannabis sector in 2019, consumer cannabis got a huge hit (pun intended) when five states passed legalization laws in the November election. This week, the entire cannabis sector continued to rally with Canopy Growth Corp (CGC) – the Best-in-Breed in the space – locking in +22.26% and the spot of the Week’s Biggest Winner.
Salesforce (CRM)
Salesforce (CRM) has gotten where it is through the amazing leadership of CEO and Founder Marc Benioff. Unfortunately, Benioff is so forward-thinking that whenever a new acquisition is announced, investors typically sell off the stock, not understanding the acquisition and not having faith in Benioff (despite his outstanding past record). This week, CRM announced its plans to acquire Slack (WORK) – the enterprise collaborative program – and dropped -4.03% to lock in the Week’s Biggest Loser spot.

This Week’s Moves
Canopy Growth Corp (CGC): Profit-Taking
Canopy Growth Corporation (CGC) rallied with the rest of the speculative consumer plays this week, triggering a sell order I had in place which filled on Tuesday at $27.17.
The order locked in +190.90% in gains on a few of the shares I bought back on March 18 for $9.34. My next sell target for the stock is around $34.00 and my next buy target is around $14.20.
Given that this is a long-term position eyeing CGC’s all-time high near $60.00 in the coming years, my profit-taking is limited to selling very small quantities, so Tuesday’s sale reduced my per-share cost only -1.17% from $14.57 to $14.40.
CGC closed the week at $29.17, up +7.36% from where I sold Tuesday.
GW Pharmaceuticals (GWPH): Profit-Taking
Despite not having anything to do with consumer cannabis, GW Pharmaceuticals (GWPH) continues to trade with the sector, good or bad. Fortunately, this week saw consumer cannabis popping so I decided to reduce my GWPH position since it’s now part of the Speculative Basket.
On Friday, I placed a sell order which filled at $129.90. The order locked in profits of +29.90% over my then per-stock average price of $100.00. It also lowered my per-share cost -3.25% from $100.00 to $96.75.
My next sell target for the stock is near its 2020 high of $142.00 and my next buy target for the stock is near its recent low at $87.90.
GWPH closed the week at $129.71, down -0.15% from where I sold.
