News out: We have DTC eligibility!

EMPOWER ANNOUNCES DTC ELIGIBILIty
Company Stock Is Now More Accessible to U.S. InvestorS
VANCOUVER B.C. / ACCESSWIRE / April 15, 2021 / EMPOWER CLINICS INC. (CSE:CBDT)(FRA:8EC)(OTC PINK:EPWCF) ("Empower" or the "Company") an integrated healthcare company - serving patients through medical centers, telemedicine platforms and a high complexity medical diagnostics laboratory processing thousands of COVID-19 specimens - is pleased to announce it is now eligible for Depository Trust Company ("DTC") services in relation to Empower's listing on the OTC.

United States investors may now more easily trade Empower's OTC stock (OTC PINK:EPWCF) in addition to Empower's listing on the CSE (CSE:CBDT) and (FRA:8EC).

"Convenience is a core part of Empower's overall strategy for our approach to integrated healthcare, so our capital markets strategy should be the same. I'm thrilled that trading Empower's shares will now be easier for existing and potential shareholders in the U.S.," said Steven McAuley, Chairman & CEO of Empower. "Empower has a strong and growing presence in the United States market operationally as well as for investors. We're confident that we will see enhanced trading liquidity as a result of our DTC eligibility."

DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC), one of the world's largest securities depositories that manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies. Empower is now eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through the DTC and is therefore considered "DTC eligible". This electronic method of clearing securities streamlines the process of trading, enhances liquidity, and provides direct access to investors and brokers in the U.S. OTC capital markets.

This stock is being heavily manipulated to generate an average 5% return on a daily basis to the MM keeping it down. It's fair market value today is in the mid .90's.

Hmm this post of yours from April 15 seems to be riddled with opinions and speculation-no real facts.  Does this cheerleading qualify you as pumping troll?

WooHoo - this is great news and perfect timing.  This will allow US recreational traders to have access to CBDT, should have an increase to the total volumes moving forward.  And just before the financials start to come out - Sweet.
