IS MEDICAL MARIJUANA (GANJA) A WORTHWHILE STOCK-MARKET INVESTMENT?
ANTIQUE CANNABIS BOOK
REEFER MADNESS MUSEUM
REGGAE SHARK
Take a quick scan over the daily news output on the giant Google News machine and the differences between British cannabis news, and that published by the rest of the world are plain to see, and show in no uncertain terms just how far out of touch the British government are when it comes to the legal status of marijuana.
While the UK newspapers concentrate on their propaganda campaign with stories of mental health issues, in the United States cannabis is now a bona-fide investment on the stock market.
Not that Prime Minister Gordon Brown would care to recommend it to the British public as an investment opportunity.
But if you have managed to squirrel away a couple of soon-to-be-obsolete pounds sterling, you could do a lot worse than think of investing in the infantile American medical marijuana industry.
So what are the options?
Cannabis Science Inc
Recent advances in science have opened the door to develop, produce, and commercialise, a variety of effective whole plant cannabinoid based pharmaceutical products with a wide variety of important applications.
Although cannabis has been used medicinally for thousands of years, until very recently little was known about how it actually worked. Some uses of cannabis are well known, such as alleviating nausea and stimulating the appetite for people with AIDS and cancer.
Other well-known uses include chronic pain, and reducing muscle spasms associated with neuromuscular disorders like MS and spinal cord injuries. Some current uses are poorly understood, such as its effectiveness in alleviating certain autoimmune disorders such a Crohn's Disease.
google_protectAndRun("ads_core.google_render_ad", google_handleError, google_render_ad);
But you can be sure the CEO of Cannabis Science Inc, Dr Robert Melamede Ph.D, will be putting every ounce of his being into bringing his cannabis based lozenge to market.
Share price
As with anything which is a little bit controversial, the share prices for Cannabis Science stock have proven a little bit volatile over the last 6 months.
In April 2009 the price of Cannabis Science stock was languishing down around the $0.40 cents mark but after a summer of activity which saw Cannabis Science sack its then CEO Steve Kubby, the stock price has soared as high as $1.40, only to crash down to a historical low of around $0.15 cents. The start of August witnessed the stock attaining the stratospheric heights of $1.40 again, only to settle down around $0.40 cents as we go to press today.
Medical Marijuana Inc
The story behind Medical Marijuana Inc should ultimately end in a Hollywood blockbuster being produced as the Chief Executive Officer of Medical Marijuana Inc, Bruce Perlowin, served federal jail time for running a marijuana smuggling operation worth over $100 million dollars.
Entrepreneur Perlowin was importing marijuana by sea from Colombia, using a fleet of vessels which according to the FBI, would have out-numbered the navel fleet of many small countries.
Faced with the problem of where to actually unload his fleet of vessels Perlowin bought his own pier in San Fransisco Bay, even though he currently lived in Miami where he had spent his childhood.
He then set about building a surveillance and communications network to oversee his operation, which would have been able to withstand one of San Fransisco's famous earth quakes.
During his trial it came to light Perlowin had put in place a contingency plan which would have put his communications network at the disposal of the San Fransisco authorities if an earthquake were to strike, (or indeed if the Russians nuked California).
On his release from prison Perlowin got involved in a couple of bona-fide enterprises unrelated to marijuana.
After running a number of successful business's in a number of different industries including health and wellness and telecommunications, Perlowin came up with the idea of standardising the system medical marijuana dispensaries use in the fulfillment and distribution of marijuana to their clients.
How does it work?
Medical Marijuana Inc offer medical dispensaries and collectives an electronic payment card, which the clients use to buy their cannabis from the dispensary.
This creates a system which the IRS (or even the FBI) can plug into at any time to keep a check on exactly how much trade a dispensary is carrying out, showing the authorities that the dispensary owner wishes to do everything in his power to comply with state laws regarding medical marijuana.
After a slow start it was announced recently Medical Marijauan Inc had signed up 5 more dispensaries for a total of 28 to date, in the US and Canada. Like any new idea it takes a little bit of time to catch the imagination. But Medical Marijuana Inc are well on their way and it would be a foolish person who was to bet against Bruce Perlowin creating another $100 million dollar marijuana business.
Share Price
Following a 1 for 10 forward split of its stock, Medical Marijuana's share price dropped from over $1.00 down to $0.25 cents.
What that means is the company wanted to generate some new stock, and to do so it takes one share worth $1.00 dollar, and turns it into 10 shares worth $0.10 cents each. Generating a whole bunch of new stock, albeit at a lower price. But the value remains in the company all the same.
Over the last 4 months the stock price has fluctuated from a high of almost $0.70 cents to a low of around $0.28 cents. As we go to press today the price stands at around $0.38 cents, but knowing Bruce Perlowin and his track record I wouldn't bet against this stock succeeding even if it does rollercoaster every now and then.
Summary
Cannabis? Get on it, regardless of what the British government tells us about how dangerous it is. The truth is 25 million American citizens who have legal access to medical marijuana know otherwise, and it can only be a matter of time before the UK comes up with its own version of a national medical cannabis operation. Maybe not this year or next, but its sure to happen, just as sure as politicians will help themselves to public money.
