[[tagnumber 0]][[tagnumber 1]]Medical Marijuana Inc (OTCMKTS:MJNA) has been sliding down the charts, with little exceptions, for quite some time now. This is not a surprise as we have seen other entities involved in the legal cannabis business suffer the same fate.[[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]] [[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]]And this is not a surprise, considering the fact that the market cap of [[tagnumber 6]]MJNA[[tagnumber 7]] still hovers around the $90 million mark. Meanwhile, the company has not shown any signs that it deserves such a valuation.
