As many of you know, I&#8217;m currently long on MSOS, and it&#8217;s a core position for me right now.</p><p>We are currently in the middle of the recreational rescheduling hearing, which is set to last until July 15th. Once that concludes, the ALJ will provide a recommendation, followed by a final rule from the DEA. While the hearing plays out, I&#8217;m expecting a few more weeks of consolidation&#8212;but the technicals are quietly improving. We are sitting safely above both the 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages.</p><p>More importantly, the structural landscape of this ETF has fundamentally changed. The liquidity crunch that plagued cannabis stocks for years is resolving. Trulieve and Glass House now represent roughly 35% of the ETF, and both are fully liquid, with Trulieve already up-listed to the NYSE.</p><p>The stage is being set for an explosive move into the end of the year.</p><p><em>Subscribe to Pristine Capital Premium today to unlock the full video breakdown, including:</em></p><ul><li><p><em>The specific M&amp;A catalysts brewing between Curaleaf and Glass House.</em></p></li><li><p><em>How the 52-week range metrics for TRLV and GLAS are setting up to trigger massive momentum scanners.</em></p></li><li><p><em>A complete historical analysis of our Excel seasonality model showing why July and August have historically been massive turnarounds for this sector.</em></p></li></ul>
