Spirit (SAVE) a distressed merger partner with Jet Blue LONGSAVE on the 50-minute chart reversed a trend down that started on January 23 which was a
continuation of a previous downtrend which corrected. SAVE is in critical condition. There is a
merger with JBLU which has been successfully challenged in court. The two airlines have a
narrow window in which to file a notice of appeal after which briefing and oral argument
will be calendared. This is a slow process. I cannot find a positive piece of news in this
current week. No matter, price crossed over both short and longer moving averages and had
little bit of more volume. Is this a fakeout? Is this a short squeeze without volume to keep
it going? Are shorts buying to cover? Could this turn into something or is it nothing ?
Who knows ! I think it is worth watching.

$CMGR Past hit $28 now .0035 7 Mil Float Tons of News and PRsImmense interest is still on this gem after moving 500%+ twice within the last month. It seems dilution has slowed down tremendously and it has found a bottom finally down here in the high .0030s to .0040s
I would anticipate another move is percolating and hopefully is sustained on a longer time scale, as it did in the past when it moved from .05 to $28 granted the float was probably closer to 1,000,000 back them, it being 7x that now we wont be seeing such an immense move but a $1+ move isn't out of the question given how easily it moves on news.
Its most recent 8K stated that GS Capital agreed to convert a convertible promissory, dated November 26, 2021, in the aggregate principal amount of $300,445 (the “Converted Note”), at the conversion price of $1.00

$JCS ("CSI" or the "Company"), an IoT intelligent edge products and services company, today announced that it entered into a definitive merger agreement with privately held Pineapple Energy, LLC ("Pineapple"), a growing U.S. operator and consolidator of residential solar, battery storage, and grid services solutions.
Pineapple recently signed definitive agreements to acquire Hawaii Energy Connection ("HEC") and E-GEAR, both Hawaii-based sustainable energy solution providers.

CSI expects the sale proceeds from any pre-merger divestitures to be distributed in the form of a cash dividend to existing CSI shareholders prior to the effective date of the merger. In addition to any proceeds from pre-merger divestitures, CSI expects to distribute to the pre-merger shareholders a cash dividend of at least $1.00 per share prior to the closing of the merger. The Company also intends to make additional cash dividends from cash, cash equivalents, and investments and proceeds from the sale of legacy CSI assets and businesses sold after the merger through the CVRs.
Each CSI shareholder as of the merger record date, will receive Contingent Value Rights ("CVRs") that reflect the right to receive that shareholder’s percentage of the net proceeds from the sale of legacy CSI businesses and assets, after the closing.
Additionally, current CSI shareholders will retain shares in the combined company, initially holding approximately 37% of total shares outstanding. This ownership is expected to decrease over time due to earnouts to Pineapple shareholders and capital to be raised through potential future equity offerings.

The base consideration will be increased for any outstanding convertible notes issued by Pineapple in a pre-closing financing, which will convert into additional shares of CSI common stock at a rate of $2.00 per share and be decreased for any outstanding indebtedness of Pineapple in excess of $22.5 million, which will reduce the base consideration at a rate of $2.00 per share;
In addition to the base consideration, Members of Pineapple may receive additional shares pursuant to an earnout. Additional shares of common stock will be issued to Members of Pineapple upon the occurrence of the specific milestones.

INAQ update - plot buys across the wicks on the trendlineBullish on INAQ and scaling in gradually to this SPAC under $14.
I like SPACs between $10 - 13 as there is very little downside but a lot of potential upside just before the ticker changes.
Looking at this chart my plan is to keep scaling in according to this wicks on the diagonal trendline which are like clockwork.
So next buy would be around 12.90 tomorrow - let's see if it pans out. I'm going to trade off this chart until the pattern changes, most likely that'll occur the closer we get to 13.5 which is the most significant local resistance.
Once INAQ breaks 13.5 I expect this to soar and be at $16 quite quickly. This can all be invalidated by a sell-off near that level or at the resistance. In that case, I will re-evaluate and look at support levels.
But classing this one as an 'investment' not a trade (until ticker changes over). Of course, do your own research and always know what type of trade you're taking before you enter in.
Merger Arb?These are all acquisition targets that had been trading at their tender offer price for at least a month before the reaction. My guess is that they were indiscriminately sold off by institutions without paying much attention to the state of the deal.
Under the assumption that these firms will still be acquired, there should be alpha in these positions because they should not be traded based on market risk but instead on the likelihood they will be acquired

Short On $S Just Hit New Milestone: Penny StockWell... it finally happened. Sprint NYSE:S TMUS is now on everyone's list of penny stocks after this week. Shares dropped below $5 on Thursday and firmly closed near its low of the day on Friday. Next week will be interesting to see closing arguments to the opposition so this could either be a blowout or a blow-up.
"On Friday, a Washington, D.C. federal court set January 24 as the deadline for briefs in its Tunney Act proceeding. According to its definition, the Tunney Act, 'requires federal courts to review each consent decree in civil antitrust cases filed by the DOJ to ensure that the remedy proposed in the consent is in the public interest.'
Two US agencies already rubber-stamped the deal but the multiple state attorneys general in several states have gone against the grain. Closing arguments in these lawsuits are scheduled for Wednesday. If the states win, the Tunney review is basically a wash. However, if the companies come up with a “W,” there could be a chance the two respective executive teams will work towards swift close to the transaction."

Sell Broadcom on this Symantec Acquisition, $20B Down The TubesBloomberg broke the news on Wednesday July 3rd, 2019 that Broadcom is in talks to buy struggling Symantec. This is a terrible idea on many fronts and $AVGO closed down 3% on the news. I believe that investors do not want this semiconductor company to waste $20 billion on a cybersecurity company (and why pick the one that seems to be struggling the most?). Certainly makes sense that we head lower over the next few days/weeks.
A few references:
AbbVie buying Allergan - stock closed down 15%
Salesforce buying Tableau - stock closed down 3% (but it hasn't dropped further)
Goldman Sachs and B&B hotels mergeGoldman Sachs, one of the largest investment banks in the market, this Monday announced the ongoing negotiations for the purchase of B & B Hotels from a private investment company PAI Partners.

$SODE Makes Headlines: Acquisitions and 50M Share Retirement$SODE just recently announced they acquired BitPlaza Inc., the worlds first bitcoin shopping center in the App Store. This is major news for SODE. This strategically couples to company to bitcoin and other blockchain related news. This is great as BTC recently has made a bullish run. Most analyst and investors believe this bullish run is going to continue its trend. As SODE 52 week highs have been upwards of .335 per share, off recent news, there is growing belief this company could be heavily undervalued.
$HIPH CEO Confirms Order Delivery to Start Next Week: CBD WaterThe CEO of $HIPH A Expansive High Growth MJ Stock with several acquisitions in the pipe and more to come, has announced that the deliveries for the CBD+Hydro Infused High PH Water will start delivery next week and explained the situation in a tweet earlier today:

The technicals of the chart also show triangular formations on the hourly going back a month in an upwards direction which confirms the uptrend.
Below are some of the major catalysts coming up for the MJ Sector as a whole:
Pending US Federal Hemp/CBD legalization DD/research links:
(1.)
The current Farm Act expires Sept 30th, 2018, legislators will attempt to pass a new Farm Act before the current Act expires, meaning; there's aprox. 99%+ certainty that the proposed US Federal Hemp/CBD legislation will be dealt with by congress in one way or the other on or before Sept 30th, 2018.
www.washingtonpost.com
The Hemp Farming Act of 2018 contains full spectrum legalization of Hemp & CBD on a US Federal level
en.wikipedia.org
It is easy to under-estimate the potential economic impact of US Federal Hemp/CBD legalization, but consider;
Hemp/CBD has been federally restricted for over 80 years.
en.wikipedia.org
Not only does CBD derived from Hemp have potential mass use on a national/federal level, but the Hemp by-products of CBD production have approximately 10,000 different additional uses:
www.bulkhempwarehouse.com
The US Federal legalization of Hemp/CBD is essentially a once-in-a-century event.
(2.)
On Oct. 17th Canada will experience full Marijuana legalization. This will also be another catalysts and full spectrum legalization of MJ in Canada puts pressure on the US to pass full spectrum legalization of Hemp/CBD for US Farmers to stand a chance of being able to compete with the Canadians in the massive international Hemp/CBD space.
(3.)
With 2018 being a mid-term election year; Cannabis stocks tend to out-perform when legalization is on the ballot, see the following 2 videos for further explanation:

This November 6th these 4 states will vote to legalize Marijuana in different forms:
North Dakota: Recreational Marijuana.
Michigan: Recreational Marijuana.
Utah: Medical Marijuana.
Missouri: Medical Marijuana.
