From what I gather, the froth is in private equity and credit. They are passing laws to dump a load of crap on your retirement account. That’s why the bad data isn’t showing because it is off the books.

My father in law works at the Cemetery. One of his coworkers's mother in laws makes the best burritos. A great size for $3 a piece. I always buy some. They make my anus burn, but I can't stop. I don't even care if they get the meat from the Cemetery.

We in Europe tend to follow laws and regulations, so it’s hard to compete with the robber barons in the lawless west. But we do have consumer protections, so that’s nice.

It’s already gone through HHS review and the DEA is in the rulemaking phase. It wouldn’t even require an executive order since it’s an administrative process under the Controlled Substances Act. Important to note though; ONLY changing the scheduling to Schedule III does not change whether it’s legal to sell or possess large amounts of marijuana without a DEA license. Schedule III status means it can be prescribed if approved by the FDA (same as codeine or ketamine for medicinal use) and this would not violate federal law. Currently states that marijuana is legal in, technically it’s still illegal, the states and the fed are just not enforcing the laws on the books. Recreational use, possession, or sale outside the medicinal or research framework implied by changing the schedule of the drug would still violate federal law unless they change that specifically. As far as I know anyways. Regardless, it’ll be a huge step on the road to full legalization. Also the vast majority of Americans support this… just a bunch of these old ass politicians are too scared to publicly support it so they keep kicking the can down the road. There’s been studies on how much the healthcare system could save by using marijuana, so there are logical reasons for it to happen beyond just public support.

During his first term he stated he would reschedule cannabis if congress passed legislation. This term he’s just making up whatever laws he wants on his own though. If you see a huge buy on cannabis calls then maybe we’re about to get an executive order. But I kind of doubt it. He has close ties to the for profit prison system. I’m down 90% on MSOS from a few years ago though. So I hope you’re right.

For the Trump stuff, I believe it's a legal gray area because the president has exemptions from a lot of ethnic laws but I am not a lawyer so I am not really qualified to go down that rabbit hole. My main point is that you can't just look at price action and conclude there's illegal manipulation going on outside of extreme situations. They have busted people in the past, I think one of the board member's cousins or something, but that's only because there was actual evidence to go on. It "looks obvious" is just not enough to act on. Lets say they contact a firm/individual that bought an unusual amount of shares for the reason and they just go "oh we just think there's growth potential for the company and thought it was over sold". Then what?

Because they don’t have a $500B CEO who doesn’t care about and isn’t subject to securities laws

BYND is important for natural selection since laws and regulations in modern society have kinda slowed that down.

A TLDR of the rule: \> Day trading is not allowed in a TFSA because the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) can deem it a business activity, which would result in all profits being taxed as business income instead of the tax-free gains the account is designed for. While there are no explicit laws against day trading in a TFSA, frequent trading activity can be flagged for audit based on factors like the high frequency of transactions, short holding periods, and the nature of the investments.

Alright apes, let’s get scientific for a second. 1. Revenue decay ≈ exponential function Last 4 years of revenue: down from ~$465M (2021) → ~$330M (2024). That’s about -10–15% CAGR, aka exponential decay. Demand curve isn’t flattening — it’s approaching zero. 2. Margins = negative mass Gross margin has hovered around -20%, meaning they lose money making every fake burger. That’s not “scaling,” that’s thermodynamic inefficiency. You can’t violate conservation of cash. 3. Debt and dilution spiral Current liabilities > current assets, negative cash flow every quarter. They’ve diluted shareholders to keep the lights on. Basic algebra: more shares + same losses = lower intrinsic value per share 4. The rally is a meme bubble, not a market equilibrium Short interest + retail hype = short-term volatility. Once buying pressure (momentum) decays, equilibrium price returns toward fair value — probably $5–7 range based on DCFs and peer multiples. 5. The “plant-based meat revolution” hypothesis failed Consumer behavior data shows repeat purchase rates under 30%. Translation: the model didn’t scale. The market saturated faster than expected — like an S-curve that plateaued halfway up. ⸻ TL;DR: $BYND is thermodynamically unstable — losing energy (cash), mass (market share), and momentum (hype). The laws of finance say it must cool down soon.
