IM Cannabis Announces Plans to Voluntarily Delist from the Canadian Securities Exchange
TORONTO and GLIL YAM, Israel, May 28, 2025 /CNW/ -- IM Cannabis Corp. (the " Company" or " IMC") (NASDAQ: IMCC) (CSE: IMCC), an international medical cannabis company, announces that it has applied for a voluntary delisting of its common shares (" Shares") from the Canadian Securities Exchange (the " CSE"). The delisting from the CSE will not affect the Company's listing on NASDAQ and its Shares will continue trading on the NASDAQ under the symbol "IMCC".
The Company is entertaining potential transactions that, if completed while the Company is listed on the CSE, would require the Company to incur unnecessary burdensome costs, approvals and delay. The Company believes that the trading volume of its Shares on the CSE no longer justifies the expenses, administrative efforts, and regulatory burdens required to maintain a dual listing. The Company also believes that delisting from the CSE will create a central marketplace for its Shares on the Nasdaq and ultimately benefit the long-term liquidity and shareholder value of the Company. All shareholders can continue trading IMC's shares on Nasdaq under the symbol "IMCC".
The Company is grateful to the CSE for providing its initial opportunity to access public markets. It is expected, subject to approval from the CSE, that the close of business on Monday, June 2, 2025, will be the final trading day for IMC on the CSE.

Down 16%, Should You Buy the Dip on Alphabet?
By zooming out, it becomes obvious that Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL)(NASDAQ: GOOG) has been a huge winner for investors. Shares have surged 144% in the past five years, and they're up an impressive 525% just in the last decade. Becoming a dominant internet enterprise has resulted in some very happy shareholders. But as of this writing on May 28, this top technology stock trades 16% below its high, which was reached on Feb. 4. Should you take advantage of the market's pessimism and buy the dip on Alphabet right now? Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » Is AI a risk or an opportunity? With the proliferation of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools in recent years, investors have rightfully been concerned that Alphabet's crown jewel, Google Search, that represented 56% of sales in the first quarter, would be disrupted. That's because it's believed that users would turn more to AI when seeking out information on a variety of topics, pulling traffic away from Google Search. In turn, this could negatively impact advertising revenue. So far, it appears these fears are overblown. First off, Google Search still commands a whopping 90% of global market share when it comes to search engines. Additionally, Google Search saw revenue increase 10% year over year in Q1. And that $50.7 billion sales figure is up 28% from the same period three years ago. Lastly, it's worth pointing out that Alphabet isn't resting on its laurels. The company has clearly made AI a top priority. At its annual Google I/O developer conference in May, Alphabet did not disappoint. A notable 100 updates were announced, with new AI features coming across the board. Alphabet is already finding ways to make money from AI. "For AI Overviews, overall, we continue to see monetization at approximately the same rate," Chief Business Officer Philipp Schindler said on the Q1 2025 earnings call when comparing Overviews to traditional search. And when it comes to advertising customers, AI is helping them create more effective marketing campaigns that can increase return on spend and enhance targeting capabilities. In Q1, Alphabet generated $34.5 billion in net income. This puts it in an enviable position to keep plowing sizable financial resources into AI initiatives to bolster its competitive standing. Alphabet's economic moat Alphabet's wide economic moat is a key factor that highlights just how outstanding of a business this really is. The company benefits from powerful network effects within Search and YouTube. There are invaluable, intangible assets at play, like the Alphabet and Google brands, unrivaled technological know-how, and the ability to collect unbelievable amounts of data that can directly impact strategic decisions. There is also a cost advantage, particularly with Google Cloud. The platform requires huge fixed costs to build out the infrastructure. This explains why the segment was unprofitable for a long time. However, now that revenue has scaled up to $49 billion on an annualized run-rate in Q1, Google Cloud is boosting the bottom line. Operating income totaled $2.2 billion in the first three months of 2025. Google Cloud's customers also deal with high switching costs. Once they onboard and start to depend on Alphabet as its mission-critical IT partner, it makes sense why they would be inclined to stay put unless they want to cause potential operational disruptions. Trading at a discount to the market Investors will notice that Alphabet's valuation is too hard to ignore. Shares trade at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 19.2. This is a discount to the S&P 500 Index, which just doesn't seem warranted given the quality of this business. And of all the " Magnificent Seven" stocks, Alphabet is the cheapest. Finding such a great deal in the stock market can make investors think that they're overlooking something. However, it's best not to overanalyze the situation. Alphabet is a smart buy while on the dip. Should you invest $1,000 in Alphabet right now? Before you buy stock in Alphabet, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Alphabet wasn't one of them.

Postal workers protest 'final offer' from Canada Post
Ottawa postal workers, with support from Ontario and Quebec locals, protested on Saturday against Canada Post's demand that they be forced to vote on the company's 'final offer.' Article content Article content Gathering in front of the Canadian Tribute to Human Rights monument near city hall, leaders from the Canadian Union of Postal Workers decried what they said was an attack on the public post office. Article content Article content The crowd of around 90 heard speeches and chanted 'Hands off my post office' before marching to the prime minister's office on nearby Wellington Street. Article content Article content 'Our public post office is under attack. Canada Post is pushing cuts that are going to harm you, the workers, but also harm the Canadian public,' Jan Simpson, CUPW's national president, said at the rally. Article content The union announced a nationwide overtime ban for its 55,000 workers on May 23 as they began escalating toward strike action. On Saturday, similar rallies took place across Canada as the union sought to send a message to Canada Post about its vision for the future of the struggling public service. Article content Article content Article content The union has also criticized Canada Post for asking Minister of Jobs and Families Patty Hajdu to direct that a vote take place on an offer made Wednesday. What Canada Post called its 'final offer,' included a signing bonus of $500 or $1,000, the removal of compulsory overtime and other items. Article content In an interview with the Ottawa Citizen, Simpson said that forcing a vote on the last offer was not the best way to solve the labour dispute. Simpson said many issues that caused the strike remained on the table, including route ownership from letter carriers, closing of retail storefronts and downsizing of the public post office.
