[BREAKING] Canada Abandons Free Market Capitalism

Jody ChudleyHi Reader,

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

That is the justification for Canada's most right-wing Province abandoning free market capitalism this week.

On Sunday, the Alberta Government announced that it will be enforcing a mandatory production cut of 8.7 percent for all oil producers operating in the province.

There is an exclusion for the really small operators, many of whom could be bankrupted by such a cut.

For all other producers, however, there is no option. Starting January 1, 2019, the production reduction is mandatory. These private sector companies have no choice.

This is a shocking measure — similar in size to the state of Texas doing the same thing.

But as always, The Daily Edge has the best way for you to play the action…


Urgent Announcement (Read Before Monday)

hourglassMy publisher has just announced something that could change the way you do business with us. It will be totally up to you to decide, but as one of my loyal readers, I think you should be among the first ones to know what's happening this coming Monday. Click here now to watch his message.

It Seems Very Wrong, But It Is Probably Right

To appreciate how bad things have gotten, you need to understand that Alberta is Canada's version of Texas.

I'm talking about big trucks, cowboy hats and very conservative politics.

In Canada, Alberta prides itself on being the home of the free market — the province of privatization.

Alberta is a hotbed for libertarianism and the view that less government equals better government.

So what happened? What has shocked the Alberta Government into this oil patch intervention?

The answer is that the Province was tired of seeing it most valuable commodity (oil) being given away almost for free.

In Alberta, the most common blend of oil produced is called Western Canadian Select (WCS).

This is a heavier blend of oil which means that it is denser and the refining process is more complex than it is for lighter blends.

In the month of October, WCS sold on average for $45.48 per barrel less than West Texas Intermediate (the most common American light oil blend).

That meant that for much of the last two months, Alberta producers have been selling their oil for not much more than $10 per barrel. That means that every company producing it is losing money.

The economic cost of giving away oil production at this price is enormous. Not just for all of the companies that are losing money on production, but for the province of Alberta as well.

It has been estimated that on an annual basis, the recent discount costs the province of Alberta $7.2 billion on production royalties, oil producers $5.3 billion on production sales, and the Canadian federal government $800 million for its royalty take.1

It is a ridiculous amount of money being lost for the sale of a commodity that is going for multiples more elsewhere.

The Government Action Taken And How We Can Profit From It

The cause of this massive problem for conservative Alberta is that the province is landlocked.

Being landlocked means that the province needs to ship its oil through pipelines that run through other provinces and American states.

As you are likely aware, these days getting major pipelines built has been virtually impossible. The political left and environmental groups keep putting up roadblock after roadblock.

With all pipelines out of Alberta already full and the resulting glut of oil only forecasted to get worse, the Alberta Government decided to act to deal with this problem.

Hurry to watch this video, take the right steps by Friday at 3pm...

[Watch this DEMONSTRATION of the laziest money ever made]

Starting January 1, 2019, producers will be forced to adhere to 8.7 percent production cuts.

Combined, those cuts will reduce Alberta's oil production by 325,000 barrels per day. Over the course of 2019, that production restriction should clear the existing glut.

As a more permanent fix, the Alberta Government is going to take matters into its own hands and work around the pipeline problem. The Province is going to purchase 7,000 rail cars that will carry Alberta's oil production to its end markets.

The companies that will be the biggest beneficiaries of the wide Western Canadian Select discount being eliminated will be those that have the biggest percentages of their production exposed to that pricing.

These companies are going to benefit over both the short and long term as the Alberta Government has moved to implement a long-term solution to this pricing problem…

A problem that has been a drag on the share prices of these producers for years.

My favorite way to play this is with Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ). Canadian Natural currently sports a juicy 3.7 percent plus dividend yield and has a rock-solid balance sheet.

Canadian Natural's Rapidly Growing Dividend

I also love Canadian Natural's massive oil reserve base. The company sits on an absurd 8 billion barrels of proven oil reserves. That's enough to fuel the U.S. for an entire year!

Better still, with the company generating gobs of free cash flow, Canadian Natural has been rapidly growing that dividend at a rate of 23 percent per year. And with improved oil pricing going forward that dividend growth rate will only accelerate.

Here's to looking through the windshield,

Grab Your Share of the Corporate Tax Windfall… One Takeover at a Time!

Zach ScheidtHi Reader,

Remember when you were a kid and someone gave you cash for your birthday or some other holiday?

There was nothing better than that feeling of having extra money that you could spend on anything you wanted.

My go-to was always Nike basketball shoes. Somehow I believed with the newest shoes, I'd be able to jump just a bit higher and score a few more points for my team.

Today, the largest American corporations are sitting on a newfound pile of cash, and executives have that same "free money to spend" feeling.

The great thing about this situation is that as corporate executives find new ways to spend windfalls totaling hundreds of billions, you can claim your own share of the action!


Congressional SCANDAL: Politicians Getting Away with Millions!

congress bookThey've collected up to $16 million of annual income from what experts call "Congressional Checks".

And now a #1 best-selling author has just published a shocking new book… showing how you can get these investment checks too.

But, today may be the only day to claim this book for free.

Click here for details.

Tax Bill Ships Billions Back to America

Last year at this time, we were getting excited about the new corporate tax cut.

As part of this bill, there was a provision that caused hundreds of billions (eventually, the total will be in the trillions) to flow back from overseas to the United States.

American companies that do international business typically have to pay taxes to the countries in which they are operating. And then from that point, if they are going to send their profits back to the States, they have to pay U.S. tax as well.

In order to avoid paying twice as much in taxes, many companies parked huge sums of cash in overseas bank accounts. Apple for instance had more than $250 billion in cash held in international accounts. That's a quarter trillion just from one single American company!

The new tax bill allowed corporations to bring that money back to the U.S., while paying a much lower tax rate. The idea was to provide an incentive for companies to bring this money home, and use it for new growth opportunities.

Late last week, I saw a chart from Deutsche Bank that showed how hundreds of billions have been flowing back to the U.S. this year. If you follow me on Twitter, you probably saw my tweet about it.

By the way, if you want to see my day-to-day — actually minute-by-minute — thoughts on the market and our investment opportunities, you can follow me on Twitter here. Just click on the link and then hit "follow" next to my name.

With so much cash now back in the States and ready to be used, the question is, "What will executives spend the money on?"

Takeover Deals Offer the Best Return

One of the best ways that companies will be using this cash is to take over other companies through buyout deals.

Here's how a deal like this works...

A company with plenty of cash and a strong business might use its cash to buy all of the shares of another company.

Maybe that target company has a specific technology that our cash-rich company wants. Or maybe there is a specific brand of clothes or tools or other merchandise that our company wants to sell.

By spending cash to buy out this company, American firms can tap into new opportunities and thereby grow their own business. In the first half of this year, we saw a record $2.5 trillion in takeover deals like this announced.1

And as more cash flows back to the States, the stakes are only getting higher.

When buyout deals like this take place, the acquiring company buys all of the shares of the company being purchased.

And typically the acquiring company has to pay a price much higher than the current market price. After all, if you're an investor in a company getting purchased, and you know another company wants all of the shares, you're negotiating from a place of strength. And you want to get paid a lot for your shares!

That's why when a buyout deal is announced, the stock price of the company getting bought almost always jumps sharply higher. Because the buyer has to offer much more to get the sellers to agree to the deal.


Change Your Life Forever In 3 Minutes Or Less?

happy peopleIn just 3 short minutes…

You could be well on your way to becoming the next "3-Minute Millionaire."

All you need to do is take this short, simple 3-minute action!

But there's a catch...

You must act BEFORE Thursday, December 6 at midnight.

Click here for the surprising reason why.

How to Spot — and Profit From — Buyout Deals

If you want to profit from an overnight buyout transaction -- waking up to a windfall profit after the announcement is made, you have to think like a corporate executive.

What company could you buy that would help you grow your business?

In retail, it often makes sense to buy a competitor, or a specific brand that would be attractive to your existing customers.

For some companies, buying a technology firm would allow your company to offer better services to your customers, make your own workforce more productive, or cut back on logistical costs.

And in many cases, a company will buy out a supplier to get access to cheaper raw materials.

If you invest in companies that are likely to get purchased by the American companies with hundreds of billions to spend, you're likely to wake up to a sharp gain one day when a new buyout offer is announced.

Of course these deals aren't always easy to spot. But if you do your homework and pick out companies that can make good money on their own, while also representing a great potential buyout target, you have a chance to make money whether a deal is announced or not.

It's just one more way Americans are using this growing economy and the new corporate tax bill to add to their investment gains.

Here's to growing and protecting your wealth!

Re: What BlackBerry's Acquisition of Cylance Means for the Cybersecurity Business

if the stock hits $10.30 than I would be very happy with the gains and get out? for another run on bb? what really should be happening already with BB is that their share price should shoot through the roof with their new acquisition, however most analysts are not tech experts? The market is huge with endpoint management, something like 110 BN expected in the cyber security market alone.

what do you think would do a lot for the stock price? some analysts say that the bb stock price is artificially low. This is something we have continually seen with the original shareholders vying for control position? something doesnt add up, or it might be too early in the news cycle, maybe investors want to see the next earnings report.

Nov. 17 marks a month since recreational cannabis was legalized in Canada. Experts from the industry share insights on what has been the most surprising and most predictable developments.

 

Under 30: Must-know professionals from the Canadian cannabis industryBeginner’s Guide: 30 cannabis influencers in Canada and why you need to follow them‘Let’s be honest, you’ll never see a photo of me holding a huge joint’

 

Hilary Black, director of patient education and advocacy, Canopy Growth, and founder of BC Compassion Club

By selling everything out in the recreational market, some of my colleagues in other LPs have done a terrible job at preserving the supply required for their patients. While some LPs have done a great job, several others are completely sold out of flowers, and have very few of any other product available. I find that surprising and disappointing as we have a tremendous responsibility to not interrupt the healthcare of the patients we are taking care of.

Other than that, there were not a lot of surprises because we (Canopy) spent two years preparing for this—developing infrastructure, building greenhouses, working on our supply chain from seed to retail, etc.

I am also not surprised by how the country has shown us that it’s ready for legalization. The supply shortages that are happening are actually an illustration of the wild success that legalization is.

 

Dr. Jenna Valleriani, post-doctoral fellow at the University of British Columbia

From a policy perspective, it was good to see the government propose pardons for possession under 30 grams as among the first steps on Oct. 17—although we haven’t heard much more on what that will look like. The feds also recently announced new teams that will review applications for different licence classes, which is encouraging to hear, especially for micro-cultivators, as this demonstrates how the federal government is continuing to adapt to the growing demand.

Just like when the MMPR (Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations) was enacted in 2013, it was a bumpy first year, and likely will be no different for non-medical access as well. But the demand is there, and while I don’t think we’ll see the legal market undermining the underground market anytime soon, it will get better and more consistent as time goes on.

Daniel Sax, founder and CEO of Sensi Properties

In many ways, legalization has been very anti-climactic—people have embraced the products at large, whether that’s through the online ordering system or lining up to purchase in retail outlets.

The shortage, on the other hand, is astounding, but predictable. It’s a little bit of a black eye on the industry, but perhaps it was a question of unrealistic expectations. People were upset that there weren’t enough physical stores, but the slow–roll-out is probably a realistic way to handle the scaling challenges.

Ashleigh Brown, community manager and patient liaison of Strainprint Technologies Ltd., and founder of SheCann

From a medical perspective, it was surprising to note how quickly people came out of the woodworks with their questions and curiosity around cannabis. It’s almost like legalization gave them the permission to do that.

The most predictable effect was that the world didn’t end, and also the high demand and subsequent shortage. If anything, the long line-ups are indicative of how the majority of Canadian felt about legalization.

John Prentice, president and CEO of Ample Organics

There was such fervour for retail locations leading up to legalization that I assumed there would be many more open by now. When it comes to massive supply shortage, it really came as no surprise and will likely take over a year to sort it out.

Alison Gordon, CEO of 48North Cannabis Corp.

It’s surprising how little has changed! For those of us in the industry, legalization was this big, exciting, looming date that we’ve been thinking about for a long time. On Oct. 17, there was a lot of excitement and media attention, but that has since dissipated. This is probably a good thing as it feels like cannabis has been normalized a bit. The situation in Ontario is unfortunate, as we don’t have brick-and-mortar retail. Consumers aren’t getting the full experience yet.

It isn’t surprising that the provinces were not fully ready with retail programs. This is a monumental task that will definitely take the different levels of government a while to sort out.

Pranav Sood, founder of Trellis

As we provide software to the supply chain side of the business, we experienced a different perspective, especially when it came to the surge in provincial sales retail, which was different when compared to the medical model.

We have been seeing high demand for our software—which is a seed-to-sale solution for extraction, cultivation, and cannabis companies of all sizes—from micro-business licences, which again didn’t exist under the medical market. We have seen a dramatic shift in the industry and, the scenario is starting to look a lot more like California.

Robyn Rabinovich, VP of business strategy for TerrAscend

The day came and passed, and the world is not any less well-off as a result. It’s not like we see individuals walking down the street with a bong or a blunt in hand. If one were to look at footage from Quebec and Nova Scotia, there are a whole variety of normal people showing up to participate in the legal market.

The industry expected certain issues when it came to supply chain management. Understanding that we had to wait for certain regulations to work out in regards to packaging, the time required to implement those changes as well as elements such as excise tax stickers—these were unpredictable developments that never existed that we had to deal with within a short period of time as we scaled up.

Jeanette Vandermarel, co-founder and president of Good & Green

As the only distributor in Ontario, with nearly unlimited resources, I am surprised how bad the execution has been from the Ontario Cannabis Store, especially since the supply shortage was predicted and not surprising to anyone in the industry.

Freedom is Not Free - Respecting Pioneers Through Empowerment and Eradicating World Hunger



what we know:

cylance was just purchased for a BILLION AMERICAN DOLLARS by BLACKBERRY!

Cylance is a cyber security firm that was looking to go public and Blackberry swooped in to purchase them before they could do so

this will add MAJOR abilities to blackberry's offerings

John Chen has seen his stock price up to $8.81 since he came aboard and even up to $12 .

If read by experts in the tech field, they will realize the major offerings of what blackberry has to offer in terms of privacy and cyber security. Really something here. Blackberry was sitting on 2 BN dollars and parted with half of it for THIS company! https://www.cylance.com/en-us/index.html

If integrated correctly, blackberry is now really sitting as the top partner for almost any company to use for their cyber security administration.

Prediction: There will be many smaller companies that firms need to run this software of blackberry, and will create industry, as Google does with it's product offerings.

Please let me know what you think. I think BB and BBRY stock is artifically down and we could see a bounce back of their stock price.

However for some reason major tech purchases does not seem to make big changes in stock price in the market right now?!?!

Love,
Kfir.

Now that the adult use of cannabis is legal in Canada, soon to be legal in Mexico, and now legal in 10 states in the U.S., sometimes it can be easy to forget that cannabis is medicine. But that's exactly what it is. And as investors, we have to remember that there's a lot of money to be made in medicine.
