Mark Spitznagel, co-founder of Universa Investments, believes the stock market is in a "Goldilocks phase" following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/opinion/24/10/41126981/chinas-stimulus-creates-huge-bullish-option-trades">Federal Reserve's rate cuts and China's stimulus measures.</a> After a crash last month, the market surged to new highs, but Spitznagel warns this euphoria won't last in an<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-26/stock-market-s-goldilocks-zone-is-in-danger-of-an-abrupt-end?sref=TBDibEcD"> interview with Bloomberg. </a>He predicts a looming recession and believes the current rally is only temporary.
Spitznagel, known for his focus on "tail-risk" hedging, which protects against extreme, unexpected market events, says the biggest market bubble in history is about to burst. He foresees stagflation in the future, where the Fed will have to act, but it won't be enough to save the economy. Spitznagel has had success hedging through large downturns in the market, utilizing out-of-the-money put options as a way to &#8220;buy insurance&#8221; against market routs. Buying puts on the overall market through the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) or similar broad-exposure ETFs could be a way to protect against market volatility.

Spitznagel said that while the market might continue to soar in the short term, it will soon exit the Goldilocks zone, potentially by the end of the year. With the recent &#8220;uninversion&#8221; of the yield curve, Spitznagel feels the market is now in "black swan territory." What Is A Black Swan Event: A black swan event is an unpredictable event that leads to market volatility. The COVID-19 market crash is a recent example of a black swan event. He also criticized traditional investment strategies like diversification, calling them a "big lie." He argues that modern portfolio theory has distracted investors, often making them poorer in the long run. Instead, he urges investors to focus on how their portfolios will perform in both good and bad markets.
According to Spitznagel, the key is to protect against one's own tendencies, not just market movements. Rather than fixating on what the market will do next, investors should think about how they'll react in boom and bust scenarios to avoid emotional mistakes like selling at the low and buying at the high.

Billionaire Investor Who Predicted 2000, 2008 Crashes Says Market Euphoria Will Top Soon, Warns Of 'Black Swan Event'

Despite pouring millions into the push for adult-use cannabis legalization, Florida's cannabis market is showing signs of strain.&nbsp;
According to a recent report from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/beacon-securities-limited">Beacon Securities</a>, financial backing for the legalization campaign has surged, yet dispensary sales have slipped during the third quarter of 2024.&nbsp;
Companies like Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCNNF#OTC">TCNNF</a>) and Curaleaf Holdings Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CURLF#OTC">CURLF</a>) are leading the charge with significant contributions, but the growing number of dispensaries and external factors, such as Hurricane Helene, have raised questions about whether the market's fundamentals justify the hype.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Turbocharged</h3>
The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/41036799/desantis-provokes-outrage-over-taxpayer-funded-ads-linking-marijuana-legalization-to-car-crashes">Smart &amp; Safe Florida </a>campaign, responsible for spearheading the adult-use legalization efforts, received a significant financial push in September.&nbsp;
According to the report by analysts Doug Cooper, Russell Stanley and Donangelo Volpe, Trulieve Cannabis recently added $9.5 million to its contributions, while Curaleaf contributed $1 million. To date, the campaign has raised over $100 million, with more than $24 million still available. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Diluted Growth</h3>
Per-dispensary sales in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/41002710/your-cousins-in-florida-like-their-weed-why-hispanic-voters-could-tip-the-scale-for-cannabis-wil">Florida</a> showed signs of softening during Q3, impacted by an increasing number of dispensaries and temporary disruptions like Hurricane Helene.&nbsp;
The state saw a 4% quarter-over-quarter (q/q) rise in dispensaries, with nine companies adding a total of 26 new locations.&nbsp;
According to the report, Trulieve alone accounted for 12 of these openings.&nbsp;
Overall, flower sales volume in the state increased 3% q/q, while oil-based product sales dipped 1%, with both categories showing slower growth compared to the previous quarter.
On a per-dispensary basis, flower sales volumes slipped 1% q/q, while oil-based product sales fell 5%.&nbsp;
These figures likely reflect the increased competition from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40990665/cannabis-sales-bloom-in-first-north-carolina-weed-store-marijuana-footprint-in-florida-grows-as-">new dispensaries</a> and effect of storm-related closures.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Top Players See Mixed Results&nbsp;</h3>
Trulieve, the dominant player in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40969689/desantis-urges-gop-to-oppose-cannabis-legalization-as-party-splits-over-trump-marijuana-endorsem">Florida</a>, maintained its leadership position despite mixed results in both product categories. Its flower sales increased by 1% q/q, although the company lost 68 basis points (bps) in market share, now standing at 38%. In the oil-based product category, Trulieve&#8217;s sales remained flat, but it gained 50 bps in market share, increasing its lead to 31%.
Curaleaf, the second-largest operator in Florida, reported a strong 11% rise in flower sales volumes, boosting its market share by 79 bps to 10%. However, its oil-based product sales fell 2%, though it retained its second-place ranking with a 13% market share despite a slight loss of share.
Verano Holdings Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VRNOF#OTC">VRNOF</a>) had flat flower sales following sequential declines in Q1 and Q2, which were attributed to capacity upgrades. The company's market share in flower sales slipped by 19 bps, landing at 7%, keeping its third-place ranking. Verano's oil-based product sales dropped 8%, reducing its share by 68 bps to 9%.
Ayr Wellness Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AYRWF#OTC">AYRWF</a>) experienced strong growth in flower sales, up 12% q/q, which increased its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40753011/ayr-wellness-conditional-approval-for-medical-marijuana-operations-in-virginia-what-it-means-for">market share</a> by 51 bps to over 6%, ranking fourth in the state. However, its oil-based product sales declined 7%, dropping its share by 72 bps, though it maintained its third-place position with a 12% market share.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Smaller Players </h3>
<ul>
<li>Cresco Labs Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRLBF#OTC">CRLBF</a>) saw solid growth in both product categories, with flower sales volumes rising 7% q/q, raising its market share by 20 bps to 5%. The company&#8217;s oil-based product sales increased 6%, adding 23 bps in market share, taking it up to 4%.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Green Thumb Industries Inc.

</ul>
<ul>
<li>Planet 13 Holdings Inc.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Florida's $100M Bet: What's At Stake</h3>
With adult-use cannabis legalization on the horizon through Amendment 3, Florida's market is set to see significant changes. According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38470560/landing-in-floridas-cannabis-market-legal-adult-use-marijuana-could-yield-874m-in-2">BDSA data</a>, total cannabis sales in Florida are projected to grow at a 12% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2023 to 2028, reaching $4.5 billion by the end of that period.
However, legislative uncertainties surrounding the expansion of adult-use licenses add unpredictability to the market, with over 600 dispensaries already in operation and medical cannabis sales hitting $2.6 billion in 2023.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Hype-Worthy?</h3>
Pablo Zuanic&#8216;s analysis paints an optimistic picture for Florida's cannabis market, predicting a $6 billion valuation and significant growth for operators like Cansortium and AYR Wellness<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38037571/floridas-6b-cannabis-market-anticipates-400-growth-following-court-decision-allowin"> if adult-use legalization passes in November 2024</a>.&nbsp;
Zuanic forecasts up to 400% growth for AYR and substantial upside for other major players, highlighting the potential market explosion. However, when compared to the recent Beacon Securities report, which shows slipping per-dispensary sales and slowing growth, the question remains whether the market fundamentals can sustain this anticipated boom.&nbsp;

Slipping Weed Sales In Florida's Market: Is This $100M Bet Really Worth The Hype?

Marijuana Pepsi Vandyck has spent her life embracing a name that has drawn attention, often unwanted, and most always raising eyebrows.
Marijuana was given the name by her mother who was convinced it would provide notoriety and "take her around the world." What the name did was put her in the position of having to answer a million questions and fend off judgment.
Her parents were of the post-Woodstock era when cannabis was coming into its own across the country. "And they would cool off with a Pepsi," Marijuana's aunt,&nbsp;Mayetta Jackson told the <a href="http://archive.jsonline.com/news/milwaukee/40874017.html/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Journal-Sentinel</a>. "I thought it was crazy, but they were such fun-loving people that it suited them." Marijuana's sisters have relatively common names,&nbsp;Kimberly&nbsp;and&nbsp;Robin.
Despite the challenges, Marijuana Pepsi says she&#8217;s proud of her name and never considered changing it, <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/10/01/lifestyle/woman-named-marijuana-pepsi-from-birth-will-never-change-her-name/">wrote</a> the New York Post. Until she was about 10 years old, she thought &#8220;Marijuana was just a beautiful name.&#8221; But when she moved to a new city, she became keenly aware that her name was different.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Got A Nickname? Black Names In White Classrooms</h1>
"When people find out my name, they ask my nickname instead. I tell them if calling me Marijuana isn't comfortable, they can call me Dr. Vandyck." 
Indeed, Marijuana, who married Fredrick Vandyck in 2017, earned a Ph.D. in higher education leadership from Cardinal Stritch University in 2019. Her dissertation topic was "Black Names in White Classrooms: Teacher Behaviors and Student Perceptions," which looked at the effects of unique names on the educational experiences of Black students. 
Her research found that students with distinctly Black names were subject to disrespect, stereotypes and low academic and behavioral expectations. Marijuana said her own name elicited the strongest reactions from white teachers.
&#8220;A lot of other people were thinking [my mom] was smoking marijuana and drinking Pepsi,&#8221; she <a href="https://www.npr.org/2019/06/21/734839666/dr-marijuana-pepsi-wont-change-her-name-to-make-other-people-happy">told</a> NPR, neither of which was the case. &#8220;In the black community, we&#8217;re used to having names that are more cultural.&#8221;
Marijuana works at the Community College of Baltimore County, where she uses her platform to promote positive educational experiences and challenge societal norms around identity and expectations. She is also the founder and executive director of&nbsp;Action As Empowerment&nbsp;Consulting &amp; Solutions, LLC. 
People often assume, again wrongly, that she consumes weed or drinks a lot of Pepsi. In fact, she does neither and never has. 
And when weed companies come calling with offers for promotional opportunities, she declines.
"I do get hit up by marijuana companies, but I wouldn't do anything with them unless it was centered around education,&#8221; Marijuana Pepsi said.

Marijuana Pepsi Has Always Been Proud Of Her Name, More So Now With This Honorific: 'Doctor'

Investment manager fund Chicago Atlantic recently <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241001828224/en/Chicago-Atlantic-and-Silver-Spike-Close-Loan-Portfolio-Acquisition-and-Joint-Venture-Transactions">acquired</a> Silver Spike Investment Corp. (NASDAD: SSIC), the only SEC-approved business development company (BDC) focused on lending to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis">cannabis industry</a>.
As a result, Silver Spike has been renamed Chicago Atlantic BDC, Inc., and its ticker symbol will change to $LIEN on October 2, 2024. Chicago Atlantic originates senior secured loans to state-licensed cannabis operators and has consistently traded at a premium.=
"Chicago Atlantic seeks to capitalize on opportunities in private markets by providing debt capital to lower middle-market companies, typically non-sponsor, and unique industries facing structural reasons for an insufficient supply of capital," said the company&#8217;s new CEO, Andreas Bodmeier.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Significant Timing For Cannabis Investors</h3>
The acquisition comes at a critical moment for the cannabis industry, as both <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40677600/harris-campaign-slams-donald-trump-over-cannabis-shift-calls-it-brazen-flip-flop">presidential candidates </a>are signaling support for marijuana reform, rescheduling of cannabis could boost cash flow in the sector. This shift will likely benefit the company's cannabis-focused lending platform.
"We are excited about the prospects for further growth within our core activity of providing capital to high-quality operators within the cannabis ecosystem,&#8221; said Scott Gordon, executive chairman and co-chief Investment Officer. &#8220;As one of the largest direct lenders to the sector, we see significant potential to continue playing an important role in shaping the flow of much-needed debt financing to the industry."

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Unique Market Opportunity</h3>
The merger also creates a unique opportunity for investors. 
Chicago Atlantic BDC allows access to credit alpha that differs from traditional BDCs or private credit funds. Bodmeier pointed out the value of this position, noting that "the rapidly growing cannabis sector represents a compelling example of an industry where capital is in short supply."
This acquisition and joint venture between Chicago Atlantic and Silver Spike are expected to strengthen the company's role in providing financing solutions to cannabis operators.

SEC-Approved Cannabis Lender Acquired By Investment Giant, Changes Ticker To $LIEN

The Company&rsquo;s board of directors approved such action on August 22, 2024, and the affected employees were informed of this action beginning on October 1, 2024.
The suspension of the Company&rsquo;s operations in China will involve declaring the Company&rsquo;s wholly-owned subsidiary dormant, which is a legal entity status available under current China law. Under this legal entity status, operational activities cease for a time period not to exceed three years.
By pursuing this entity status, the Company will initiate a project to suspend current operational activities, which are estimated to cease on or before December 31, 2024. Suspension activities include disposal and shipment of certain equipment in China, the termination of 2 employees and related benefit costs, and legal entity filing fees.
In connection with this action, the Company estimates that it will incur approximately $400,000 to $500,000 of costs, primarily consisting of employee termination payments, as well as equipment disposal and shipment and legal filing fees. The Company expects that these charges will be incurred primarily in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Owing to the prevailing geopolitical concerns worldwide, oil and gas supply and demand are being disrupted continuously, leading to high price volatility. As a consequence, the oil and gas market is trending all over the world, offering more opportunities for investors.
Given the industry tailwinds, it could be wise to invest in sound energy stocks Chevron Corporation (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CVX/">CVX</a>), Shell plc (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/SHEL/">SHEL</a>), and Cheniere Energy, Inc.

Besides, IMARC Group has projected the global oil and gas market to value $65.80 billion by 2032, exhibiting a <a href="https://www.imarcgroup.com/oil-gas-market">CAGR of 15.8%</a>. The oil and gas market is currently favored by trends like rising geopolitical tensions, technological advancements, and shifting environmental policies driving the market demand.
Also, the <a href="https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/pages/energy-and-resources/articles/lng-industry-trends-oil-natural-gas-report.html">rapidly maturing LNG industry</a> is expanding at a swift pace, with the liquefied natural gas trade growing at a quadrupled rate in the last two decades and set to grow twice in the next two decades.

The <a href="https://www.mordorintelligence.com/industry-reports/global-lng-market-industry">LNG Market</a> is expected to grow to $103.41 billion by 2028, expanding at a CAGR of 6.8%, driven by increasing demand for gas power generation and a growing number of LNG-fueled fleets.
