This financial information is for the Chinese population in the United States and around the world. The company’s subscriber base includes free as well as paying members, mainly located in the United States and Canada.
The emphasis today is on companies that can provide first-rate information that brings greater transparency to investors. The CFA Institute (http://nnw.fm/H0sqT) states that “the use of data and technology can result in a more effective and efficient overall financial reporting process in which investors… receive more transparent, better-quality information on a timely basis.”

ChineseInvestors.com’s wholly owned subsidiary is ChineseHempOil.com, Inc., which offers CBD (cannabidiol) oil and hemp oil products. This subsidiary has expanded its domestic sales force and has appointed Nina Wang as its vice president of sales for its United States Consumer Retail/E-Commerce Division. This furthers the process to complete the spinoff of all of ChineseInvestors.com’s hemp-related assets. Wang joined ChineseHempOil.com in March of this year. Since then, she has hired a team of sales representatives centered on wholesale and consignment sales in the Los Angeles area.
In a news release, Warren Wang, ChineseInvestors.com’s chief executive officer, said, “With over 15 years sales and management experience, we look forward to the increased sales that will be generated through Mrs. Wang’s leadership as we are laying the groundwork to increase revenues in advance of the spin-off of all of the Company’s hemp related assets.”

The spin-off of all of ChineseInvestors.com’s hemp-related assets was originally scheduled for May 31, 2018. The spin-off has been temporarily postponed as the company continues to develop its domestic sales channels.

FANDOM SPORTS Media Corp. (CSE: FDM) (OTC: FDMSF) (FRA: TQ42) Betting on Growth of Legal Sports Wagering

  • Feisty, competitive sports fan forum building mobile betting app platform
  • U.S. High Court okays state-by-state legalization of sports betting
  • Mobile gaming surpassed $50 billion mark during 2017, with e-sports comprising a burgeoning element of the industry
A new era of sports fan marketing opened when the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling on May 14 that found decades-old laws prohibiting gambling on athletics to be unconstitutional, and FANDOM SPORTS Media Corp. (CSE: FDM) (OTC: FDMSF) (FRANKFURT: TQ42) sees the decision as an opportunity to drive for the end zone with development of its own trademark wagering app on mobile devices.
FANDOM SPORTS is forming up behind its existing trash-talk-friendly fan platform available on the Google Play store for Android devices, which plays on sports audiences’ competitive passions by encouraging them to engage each other in a distinct social media arena that is uncensored and polarizing. The FANDOM SPORTS App is geared toward rewarding its users based on their ability to draw in other participants either in support of a fan favorite or in derision of their most hated opponents.
In addition to bragging rights based on players’ performance, the app’s FANCOIN virtual currency will allow users to pay for exclusive content, swag and other prizes. As the company works through the development challenges of its new wagering platform, it is creating an economy built on blockchain technology that will manage any operational risks related to the gaming transactions during peer-to-peer micro betting by its users.
Until the Supreme Court’s ruling, sports betting was legal only in Nevada – not that federal law prevented a huge number of sports fans from placing friendly wagers on the outcome of a given event or season. A recent Chicago Tribune report (http://nnw.fm/Tn2aU) estimates that close to 60 million people in the United States and Canada are already involved in fantasy sports leagues, many of which involve money bets. Media outlets debate the amount of money that changes hands, but agree that it figures in the billions (http://nnw.fm/x0Q9s).
Gambling was once a risqué subject that figured in the province of underworld criminals and closed, smoke-filled rooms, but, in recent decades, acceptable financial risk promotion has come to signify not only stock market investment but lottery tickets, office pools, local fantasy leagues and online gaming with international connections. Casinos now are legal in 40 states, and lotteries are welcome in 44. The Chicago Tribune story reports that about half of all American adults acknowledge having bought lottery tickets during the past year, and some 81 million people patronized casinos last year.
Mobile device users approached a benchmark 50 percent of the total worldwide gaming market’s devotees last year, showing the “anywhere you are” sports following’s clout as smartphones, in particular, become nearly ubiquitous in society (http://nnw.fm/6g09W).
“Exactly 10 years ago, the launch of the iPhone ignited a revolution in games, creating a new market segment that is this year worth around $50 billion,” a November article in Newzoo states (http://nnw.fm/50uQC). “The past years have seen the rise of esports, taking the already popular activity of viewing game video content to a professional level.”
While hosts of companies are rushing the field to celebrate the Supreme Court’s ruling and look for ways to monetize it, the fact remains that the ruling simply left states in charge of establishing the legal framework for sports betting within their geography. Companies hoping to set up headquarters for gambling operations will still have to negotiate a patchwork of licensing laws and standards that will likely differ from one state to the next. States, for their part, will have to decide how to regulate mobile betting if it becomes as simple as playing a compulsive phone game courtside or at home during a competition.
“We won’t have a 50-state sports betting market in our lifetime,” Chris Grove, the managing director for research and consulting firm Eilers & Krejcik Gaming, predicts (http://nnw.fm/Go3NI).
Still, just as lotteries and casinos spread throughout the nation, a number of states have already enacted laws intended to regulate sports betting within their confines, including New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Connecticut and Mississippi. Massachusetts and Hawaii are studying sports betting legislation, and more than a dozen states from California to Rhode Island have seen bills to legalize sports betting introduced (http://nnw.fm/1PR0j).
FANDOM SPORTS is betting that there’s an open lane ahead for people who want to celebrate the triumph of their champions, make fun of their rivals’ defeat and, maybe, make a little money in the process.

Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (REFG) is Growing

  • Online state-of-the-art financial service serving the medical cannabis and banking industries is growing
  • Company has now acquired Colorado-licensed SpeedyGrow and organic soil accelerator SpeedyVeg
  • REFG has also acquired two marijuana strains from the strains’ creator, with plans for more growth
Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (OTC: REFG) is a state-of-the-art financial services company serving the medical cannabis and banking industries. The company brought to market the first and only comprehensive card processing operation of its kind. This innovative system tracks sales and tax collection, eliminates the need to deal in cash-only transactions, offers online enrollment and empowers businesses with an advanced client management system. Once focused solely on Green, its comprehensive financial program for state-legalized cannabis markets, the company is now in the process of accelerating its growth.
In May, REFG announced its acquisition of SpeedyGrow, a Wyoming corporation licensed to grow and process hemp in Colorado, and SpeedyVeg, a proprietary formula to grow healthy plants and maximize yield. In a news release, Jeremy Roberts, CEO of REFG, stated, “We weren’t initially anticipating entering this space. But after careful consideration, the opportunity to expand our footprint in the state-sanctioned cannabis space was too good of an opportunity for our shareholders to pass up.” While the company’s energies will remain centered on providing best in class payment processing and banking services, this acquisition provides another revenue stream for REFG investors (http://nnw.fm/3uLTe).
Soon after acquiring SpeedyGrow and SpeedyVeg, REFG announced its acquisition of two marijuana strains, GrapeApe and Birthday Cake, from the strains’ creator. GrapeApe is an indica strain tested at approximately 33 percent THC by volume, while Birthday Cake is a sativa strain tested at approximately 15 percent THC and 15 percent CBD by volume. These two highly successful strains position REFG to grow, market, acquire additional licenses for marijuana cultivation and develop licensing agreements with other state-sanctioned cannabis establishments. Additional cultivation licenses will be sought via the newly acquired SpeedyGrow (http://nnw.fm/JC8gt).
“This is just the beginning,” David Schenk, president of SpeedyGrow, added. “We are making great progress and expanding our reach into the state-sanctioned marijuana space.”

  • ETST issues new audio press release regarding its audits, Form 10, financing plans and fully reporting status
  • ETST has started 2017 fiscal year audit, which is required, along with the approved Form 10, to uplist to the OTCQB Venture Market
  • Biotech company is focused on developing medical devices for the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical fields and marketing its high-grade line of hemp cannabidiol (CBD)
Earth Science Tech, Inc. (OTC: ETST) recently released an audio press release discussing its future financial plans and its previously announced completion of audits and Form 10 submission, which could lead to an uplisting to the OTCQB Venture Market (http://nnw.fm/M0gSj).
ETST has completed its audit for FY2015 and FY2016 and submitted its Form 10 to be fully reporting (http://nnw.fm/Pg1Ub), and it is currently conducting its audit for FY2017. That audit and the approved Form 10 submission, together, are needed for an uplisting to the OTCQB Venture Market.
ETST, a biotech company based in Doral, Florida, has repositioned its line of full-spectrum cannabidiol products. It also conducts R&D for low cost, non-invasive medical devices, as it concentrates on manufacturing, marketing and distributing its cannabinoid products to the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical markets.
Dr. Michel Aube, CEO and chief science officer of ETST, said that transparency is a key tool in the expansion of the company’s business and maintaining the confidence of investors. In a news release, he added, “Since all of our amazing projects are ongoing with our partners, investor confidence will grow, and we will be able to complete our first big round of financing.”
Nickolas Tabraue, director and president of ETST, said, “Thanks to our passionate, likeminded team, the transition should be smooth as we continue growing. I look forward to sharing updates on the full reporting process as it progresses.”
ETST holds four wholly owned subsidiaries. Cannabis Therapeutics is an emerging biotechnology company. KannaBidioiD manufactures and distributes in the recreational sector. Earth Science Foundation, Inc. is becoming a non-profit to accept grants and donations for conducting additional studies. Earth Science Pharmaceutical develops medical diagnostic tools and vaccines.
