CIIX has a diversified line of products and services to help expand its revenue streams
Cannabidiol industry to intensify in robustness to projected levels of $2.1 billion in sales in 2020

ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX) has made a name for itself in the financial space by targeting Chinese-speaking investors in the United States and other countries. This is in response to the rapidly expanding U.S. cannabis market, especially the growing demand for cannabidiol-based nutrition and health products.

The company, through Chief Executive Officer Warren Wang, plans to give an overview and highlights of its key developments on December 4-6, 2018, in Los Angeles at the Luxe Sunset Blvd Hotel during the 11th Annual LD Micro Main Event (http://nnw.fm/nSV6q). Investors looking at putting their money in the company will be given audience by Wang during the conference.

Investor education being the mainstay of CIIX, the company has invested heavily in offering a variety of products and services. It provides customers with real-time market analysis, commentaries and lots of educative products presented in the Chinese language. CIIX also supports businesses through public relations and consultative services for private companies looking to go public.

To enable it to provide reliable information services, CIIX has invested in web-based tools, an integrated investment process and personalized support. Through such information, investors can then make informed decisions to meet their individual financial goals.

The cannabis industry has grown tremendously, and, by 2020, it is expected to have reached $2.1 billion in customer sales. This growth has attracted strategic investments from different companies including CIIX. To leverage the convergence of cannabidiol and health and nutrition aspects, the company is establishing a three-year development plan.

As part of the development plan, the company operates an online cannabidiol store, which is in Chinese language. This is a first in the world. The underlying agenda for this store, is to provide a pathway for the company to sell its cannabidiol-infused products, both in-store and online.

Moving on to mobile technology, CIIX is developing a mobile application known as Da Ma Dian Ping. This will help the company’s customers both review and discuss various cannabis product offerings. Just like the store, the app is a first for the industry targeting the global Chinese-speaking market.

The vision for this company is to become a market leader in the hemp-based cannabidiol oil industry. It intends to achieve this through specialized financial expertise in this market. The potential of the cannabidiol health care market cannot be underestimated, especially in the face of enabling policy and legislative developments in many states and governments around the world.

Propagation of Digital Technology Expected to Help Zenergy Brands, Inc.’s (ZNGY) Energy Efficiency Program Reach More People

Innovative technologies and smart solutions are becoming more affordable and reaching more people
Higher levels of awareness about environmental impact are also making numerous entities (both businesses and home owners) seek smart solutions
Zenergy Brands is making such solutions even more easily accessible due to the development of its no upfront payment Zero Cost Program

Home automation, virtual reality – these were technologies perceived as science fiction just a few decades ago. Today, the affordability of digital technologies is making them more widely accessible. Such technological trends make it easier for companies like Zenergy Brands, Inc. (OTC: ZNGY) to reach a more significant number of potential consumers interested in energy conservation and efficiency.

Zenergy Brands, an energy and technology company, offers smart energy utility and resource conservation solutions. It works with both residential and enterprise customers to enable the achievement of sustainability goals while clients are also reducing their carbon footprints.

The Zero Cost Program developed by the company was officially launched at the end of June 2017. The program involves the installation of smart controls, retrofits and energy conservation technologies to reduce consumption and optimize performance in business premises.

Residential customers also have a host of solutions from which to choose – from home automation to monitoring and internet-controlled energy efficiency tech. These belong to the Residential Suite Program, which is similar to Zero Cost in regard to terms, conditions and energy efficiency benefits.

The most significant benefit of both programs is that they enable the client to make use of the offering without incurring an out-of-pocket expense. The service contract is performance-based. Under the terms of the agreement, the customer pays a portion of the savings produced via program participation to Zenergy. There are no upfront payments, which simplifies participation and will potentially increase the adoption of the Zero Cost/Residential Suite Program improvements.

Based on current information, the expected reduction in energy consumption after inclusion in the programs is set at 20 to 60 percent.

Monitoring reports suggest that the Zero Cost installations perform better than initial forecasts. Their performance was superior even in cases when weather conditions were more severe than the baseline data.

As awareness about sustainability increases, the need for energy efficiency solutions is bound to grow. The importance of energy efficiency in economic terms is also significant. Recent analysis suggests that energy efficiency has provided three times more economical services than the energy production industry since the 1970s (http://nnw.fm/o8NMC). This means that, in the U.S., economic productivity is much more closely tied to energy efficiency solutions than to the production of electricity.

The global market for energy efficient building solutions is expected to grow from $227.4 billion in 2017 to nearly $360.6 billion in 2026 (http://nnw.fm/J6hGV). The energy efficient devices market is also anticipated to grow rapidly and reach a volume of $908.49 billion in 2022 (http://nnw.fm/W41t6).

Zenergy makes it possible for both homeowners and businesses to make use of smart building solutions, as well as energy efficiency technologies. Apart from focusing on energy efficiency, Zenergy has also been working consistently toward helping customers reduce their carbon footprints and strengthen their bottom lines.

Victory Marine Holdings Corp. (VMHG) Anticipates Increased Revenues due to Heightened Industry Presence and Communication with Customers

Recreational boating industry seeing accelerated growth as demand for high quality sea vessels is on the rise
Victory Marine Holdings diversifies its products and services to create a one-stop shop for customers
7,000 square foot manufacturing facility being leased by the company in an effort to manufacture boat trailers in-house

As more and more people spend their leisure time on the water, one company looks to stay abreast of the thriving recreational boating industry. Victory Marine Holdings Corp. (OTC: VMHG) is a yacht sales, brokerage and consulting business out of Miami, Florida. It boasts an extensive inventory of new and used boats, financing, insurance, documentation and recreational marine accessories, and it expects to benefit from a growing demand for tourism and water sports activities in the United States.

The recreational boating market is seeing healthy growth, especially in the state of Florida, which houses the largest U.S. recreational marine market at $3 billion (http://nnw.fm/yEg7g). According to a report by Global Market Insights, Inc., the recreational boating market in the United States is expected to reach $28.5 billion by 2024 (http://nnw.fm/e23Xt). Victory Marine Holdings has been actively making moves to stay abreast of this growing market.

Several strategic moves position the company to continue its financial vitality in the industry. First, it is pursuing its own line of boat manufacturing. To begin, the company is in the final stage to lease a 7,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Miami, Florida. As a new location for Excalibur Trailers USA, Corp., a subsidiary of Victory Marine Holdings, this expanded space will give the company room to grow, supporting its goal of manufacturing its own line of boat trailers by the end of 2018. Additionally, the company continues to move forward in manufacturing its unique line of boats.

These tactical moves promise to increase the overall revenue of the company. Consequently, by manufacturing and selling its own products, Victory Marine Holdings will be able to promise larger profit margins for its stakeholders. The company is well on its way to reaching its goal of providing clients with a one-stop experience for all of their recreational boating needs, as it can offer not only in-house product manufacturing, but also brokerage and consulting services.

Victory Marine Holdings is also amplifying its presence in the market and deepening its communication with shareholders. Recently, the company launched a new investor relations website in an effort to effectively communicate with both shareholders and potential investors. The company also sought new providers and technology to enhance its products and product knowledge at the 2018 International Boatbuilders’ Exhibition and Conference (IBEX), which saw a 23 percent increase in attendance over last year (http://nnw.fm/m5jPA). IBEX, known by those in the industry as “the largest technical marine event in North America, and the three most valuable days of the year for all marine professionals,” connects investors and customers to the companies and technology evolving and improving the recreational marine industry (http://nnw.fm/M8dGJ).

Currently, Victory Marine Holdings is seen as one of the leading retailers of luxury vessels in the world. It is positioned strategically to keep abreast of the growing popularity of recreational boating due to the company’s heightened presence in industry news and quality products, as well as its commitment to providing a one-stop shopping experience for its customers.

First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQX: FTSSF) Drilling Adds to Flagship’s Mineral Zonation in Press toward Potential Site Development

New report intercepts additional mineralization at First Cobalt’s flagship project in western United States
Company has established inferred resource estimate and is working to quickly produce an updated resource statement while doubling strike length
First Cobalt has also begun testing material at the only permitted cobalt refinery in North America capable of delivering a battery-grade product

The prospects of pure play cobalt explorer First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQX: FTSSF) (ASX: FCC) as it develops a site in the western United States are continuing to materialize, with drilling extending the mineral zonation beyond limits that were previously known at its flagship project. The company also continues to work on restarting a cobalt refinery in eastern Canada that is the only currently permitted cobalt refinery in North America capable of producing materials for the computer industry’s lithium-ion batteries.

First Cobalt previously identified two primary areas of mineral potential at its Iron Creek Cobalt Project in Idaho, noted as the Waite and No Name zones, with inferred mineral resources of 26.9 million metric tons grading 0.11 percent cobalt equivalent. The zones comprised more than 500 meters (1,640.4 feet) of known strike length and dip depth of over 150 meters (492.1 feet) for the inferred resource statement, which are now being doubled through additional drilling along a 1,000-meter (3,280.8-foot) strike with testing of down dip extensions in known cobalt-copper zones to more than 300 meters (984.3 feet) below the surface.

Three drill rigs are now onsite at the central Idaho location near the Montana state line, working to spur completion of an updated resource estimate by early 2019. The company announced its latest drilling results shortly before Thanksgiving (http://nnw.fm/8MoW9), reporting that it had intercepted broad widths of high-grade mineralization in the eastern part of the strike, where the higher grade cobalt has primarily been found previously. The report noted 32.3 meters (106 feet) of 0.31 percent cobalt and an equal percentage of copper in one of the holes, plus 21.1 meters (69.2 feet) of 0.32 percent cobalt and 0.20 percent copper in another.

The results were from three holes drilled in the eastern end of the strike and three others in the central portion. The drilling shows additional mineralization between the two zones and in the footwall of the Waite Zone, with “massive sulphide intercepts” between the zones boosting the discovered continuity and size of higher grade cobalt mineralization near underground adits from prior operations.

The drilling also extends the known depth of mineralization in some locations, with mineralization remaining open at depth.

In addition to the massive sulphide horizons, the drilling has identified disseminated sulphides that are prevalent in the same areas, “representing lower grade cobalt halos with potential for extraction by bulk mining methods.” Future drilling will continue to identify their boundaries and target the higher grade metals.

“These results confirm the continuity and consistency of mineralization predicted by our geological model and add further support for the development vision for the future of the project as we build towards the updated resource estimate in early 2019,” CEO Trent Mell stated in the news release.

The report comes on the heels of news that First Cobalt has begun testing cobalt hydroxide material as feedstock for its refinery in Ontario (http://nnw.fm/oefY4). Specialized international inspections and testing firm SGS Canada Inc. is working with First Cobalt to test the suitability of different cobalt feed material using the company’s current flowsheet, with the immediate expectation of assessing how cobalt hydroxide will perform in production of cobalt sulphate or metallic cobalt products for sale in the North American market.

“Our objective is to enter into a long-term agreement for a reliable source of ethically-mined cobalt,” Mell stated. “The cash flow potential from restarting the refinery in as little as 18 months could allow us to fund a significant amount of work to advance our flagship Iron Creek Cobalt Project in Idaho, USA while also providing a much-needed North American source of cobalt. In parallel with these tests, management has commenced discussions with third party sources of capital that would minimize or eliminate any equity dilution associated with a restart of the First Cobalt Refinery.”

The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) Building New Capacity upon First Commercial Cannabis Crop

Full-scale cannabis legalization in Canada in October led to a rush of consumer interest and a resultant shortage of supply as the new industry adapts
The Green Organic Dutchman is improving on its initial commercial crop by building facilities with 195,000 kilograms of annual production capacity
The company’s reach includes cultivation facilities in Canada and Jamaica, with additional hemp production in Poland
Vast distribution capabilities spread wide across Canada, Jamaica, Mexico and Europe

Soaring demand for legal cannabis products has strengthened the long-term outlook for cannabis cultivator The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF), which is expanding its production capability as well as its international footprint in a bid to stay abreast of the market’s sweeping tide.

Canada’s nationwide legalization of cannabis in October opened the doors to a huge buying spree by consumers, even as its newly regulated industry struggled to cross the bar into the unknown expanse of legitimate high-quality marijuana production while the black market outlets that the legal industry threatened to extinguish continued to snap up customers unwilling to wait for the new market’s wheels to turn (http://nnw.fm/acNI8).

Legal cannabis retail outlets in Quebec, Manitoba, New Brunswick, British Columbia, Alberta, Nova Scotia and Saskatchewan reported supply shortages in late November, and Khurram Malik, CEO of diversified cannabis company Biome Grow, predicted that supply might only be adequate to meet demand by 2020 or later, according to the Motley Fool (http://nnw.fm/b47rS).

At the forefront of authorized producers, The Green Organic Dutchman dedicated its first commercial crop to a closed “Grower’s Circle” group of patients and investors as a show of loyalty to “those who supported TGOD and those who are most in need of medical cannabis therapy,” according to its third-quarter operations report. At the same time, the company was working to expand its existing 27,000 square feet of production space in Hamilton, Ontario, into an operation that’s expected to ramp-up to nearly 200,000 kilograms of annual capacity across Ontario, Quebec and Jamaica when construction is completed early next year, as well as scalable hemp capacity in Poland.

The company is improving efficiency measures in its existing commercial cultivation while developing five new strains for the medical and recreational markets amid the race to provide patients and other consumers with consistent, premium product.

The Motley Fool report notes the declining stock values of many cannabis producers following Canada’s transition to legalization, adding that investors may become increasingly unhappy if losses increase while growers continue expanding their capacity and working on product diversification, branding and marketing. That includes The Green Organic Dutchman, which the report describes as a potential top-five producer once it gets running on all cylinders with its expected 195,000 kilograms of annual production (including 40,000 kilogram-equivalents from edibles and cannabis-infused beverages as they become legal).

The Green Organic Dutchman acknowledged in its third quarter report that “expanding its operations, administration and marketing infrastructure to rapidly scale its business” resulted in a loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, but it stated that those losses were in line with budgeted expectations.

Chief Financial Officer Sean Bovingdon noted in the third quarter report that The Green Organic Dutchman “has secured its financial future by raising over $450 million [and] fully funding [the company’s] current domestic and international plans,” adding that TGOD has “no plans to return to the market for additional capital at this time.”

Bovingdon continued, “We have de-risked the capital side of our business and with our focus now on delivering medical and recreational sales in Canada and internationally. We expect to drive significant value for shareholders in 2019 and beyond.”

Sugarmade, Inc.’s (SGMD) Hydroponic Solutions Could Fast Track Growth of US Hemp Industry

U.S. hemp industry set for CAGR of 14 percent through 2022
Interest in 23,000-acre ultra-high cannabidiol (CBD) hemp project in Kentucky
Raises revenue guidance for 2019 to $70 million after announcing acquisition of hydroponics retailer

Despite the abstrusity that still surrounds the legal status of hemp, cultivation of the plant in the U.S. is undergoing a renaissance. During the Republic’s early years, citizens were legally obliged to grow the crop, and both Presidents Washington and Jefferson are reported to have done so. But legislative changes turned the thing on its head. Since hemp was a strain of cannabis sativa, as was marijuana, it became tainted with the same brush of illegality. Now, further changes in the legal framework are allowing the industry to emerge from its long winter, giving California-based Sugarmade, Inc. (OTCQB: SGMD) the opportunity to execute its ambitious plans to support cannabis cultivation. The company is one of the largest publicly traded hydroponics supply companies, with brands that include Zen Hydro, Carry Out Supplies, BudLife Cannabis Storage Solutions and Cali Grown Supplies.

Cultivation was perfectly legal in nineteenth century America. However, with the twentieth century a period of moral rectitude dawned, resulting in the Eighteenth Amendment that ushered in Prohibition in 1920 and the Marihuana Tax Act in 1937. The act effectively curtailed cultivation of hemp, but the final nail in the coffin came with the passage of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) of 1970, which removed any substantive distinction between hemp and marijuana. Thereafter, for law enforcement agencies like the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), since both hemp and marijuana were strains of cannabis sativa, hemp was marijuana and marijuana was hemp.

Nevertheless, the legislative canopy keeps evolving. The Farm Bill of 2014 allowed states to set up pilot programs to investigate hemp and its commercial potential, making industrial hemp legal so long as its cultivation was in compliance with state regulations. In addition, case law confirmed that the Farm Bill would supersede the CSA in the event that there was conflict between the two. As a result, the DEA has bowed to the inevitable, removing CBD from Schedule 1. In September 2018, the agency issued an order placing “certain drug products that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and which contain cannabidiol… derived from cannabis and no more than 0.1 percent tetrahydrocannabinols in schedule V.” This opens the way for further expansion of hemp cultivation. The total hemp market hit $820 million in 2017, according to the Hemp Business Journal, with hemp-derived CBD products accounting for $190 million of that. A CAGR of 14 percent is projected through 2022.

To serve this burgeoning market, Sugarmade has launched two divisions. ZenHydro is its online hydroponics store, which offers grow tents, lighting, nutrients and additives, instruments and tools and nearly everything else needed to grow cannabis. Then there’s BudLife Cannabis Storage Solutions, which offers a novel way to preserve the quality of cannabis flowers over long periods. Introduced in late December, the BudLife system has been able to preserve the integrity of cannabis flowers for up to six months.

Sugarmade is already a successful supplier of generic and custom printed products to the quick service sub-sector of the restaurant industry. Through its CarryOutSupplies subsidiary, the company provides the quick-serve restaurant sector with essential supplies such as cups, spoons and bottles. CarryOutSupplies allows smaller establishments to gain the marketing and advertising benefits of custom printed products without tying up large amounts of working capital.

Sugarmade recently announced a new corporate initiative in the hemp market. The company is to invest in Hempistry, Inc. a privately held Nevada corporation, which has begun planting an ultra-high cannabidiol (CBD) industrial hemp strain in Kentucky. Additionally, Sugarmade expects to sign an agreement with Hempistry for hemp cultivation supplies. Hempistry has already begun planting and has signed an agreement reserving up to 23,000 acres of prime Kentucky farmland for its exclusive use for hemp cultivation.

Sugarmade is also in the process of acquiring Sky Unlimited, LLC, which, through its AthenaUnited.com operations and website, offers multiple popular hydroponic brands to several growing agricultural cultivation sectors. This planned acquisition has prompted Sugarmade to raise its revenue guidance for calendar 2019 from $30 million to $70 million.
