The Universe, week of March 16 2015
Note: I publish “The Universe” every weekend, updating my support and resistance calculations for Marijuana sector stocks. It is not a projection, but a handy reference… Non-Marijuana stocks are covered elsewhere during the week .]

The percentage of marijuana stocks in 4-week uptrends had shrunk a little last week. It continued shrinking again this week, to just 12%, and that”s with the help of big caps GPWH and INSY.
Deterioration should seem odd on its face, since there seems to have been only good news recently — Federal legislation proposed, more talk in more states… Either the massive majority of the sector is unaware of how good things are getting or about to get, or else some other variable is missing from the equation.
In my experience, usually it”s the latter. Perhaps that variable is excessive valuation compared to shares outstanding, which dilutes the good news. Maybe there”s something else on the horizon not so good, or the market has concluded that the various legislation will be delayed.
The “why” is important at some point, but stocks don”t tend to probe new lows right before good news is about to be released. f your stock(s) is trending down in this environment, especially if it”s probing fresh lows, be sure you”re prepared to own it for awhile as it probes even lower.
FITX was a good example of that narrative, continually probing lower and lower while hopes eternally sprang higher and higher. This week brought dire news for it. MCIG may fit that potentially bearish description, too. Some issues trying to bottom include ARNA, CANL and NTRR (again).
