RE:RE:SELLINGI agree, it's institutional. My belief is that as the field gets narrowed by bankruptcy and merger, the institutions are taking notice as they realize that eventually a winner will emerge and they want o be on-side.
Pressure is being applied to governments both Provincial and Federal to come down harder on the illicit trade, which has been allowed to operate with impugnity and has caused the legitimate sellers to lose money. Criminals do not charge tax, neither do they pay any. The loss is felt by us all and must be stopped. Institutional investors are likely to be abble to apply the pressure necessary for law inforcemen to get serious.
I don't know who will emerge unscathed but whoever does will be a cash machine. Think cigerette companies in their hay-day. GLTA
