David Goubert has resigned as president and CEO of Ayr Wellness Inc. (CSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AYR#CSE">AYR</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AYRWF#OTC">AYRWF</a>), a Miami-based cannabis multistate operator, after less than a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/ayr-wellness">year in the role. </a>
Goubert, who joined the company as president in October of 2022 and took over as CEO in February 2023, is the latest in a series of executive departures at the company, MJBizDaily <a href="https://mjbizdaily.com/cannabis-operator-ayr-wellness-loses-ceo-david-goubert/">reported.</a>

The resignation was announced alongside Ayr&#8217;s second-quarter earnings report, which revealed a slight dip in earnings and growing net losses. 
Ayr's board of directors has initiated a search for a permanent CEO, while Steven Cohen, previously an external legal adviser, will serve as interim CEO.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Are Leadership Changes Enough?</h3>
In the second quarter of 2024, the company reported a slight decrease in revenue, down 0.6% from the previous quarter to $117.3 million. 
While the MSO managed to reduce its overall expenses, net losses increased to $38 million, a significant jump from the $29 million reported a year earlier.
The company has been attempting to stabilize its financial footing amid these losses. As Goubert explained before his resignation, Ayr was focused on "laying the groundwork for Ayr's next phase of growth."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Interim Leadership</h3>
Cohen, who will assume the role of interim CEO, brings a legal and corporate governance background but lacks direct cannabis industry experience. He is a founding member of Blue Raven, a New York-based legal advisory firm specializing in strategic corporate advice and general counsel services.
Cohen's appointment follows another notable departure, Jonathan Sandelman, who stepped down as director and executive chair in July, marking the second high-profile exit within just a few months.

West Fraser Timber Co. Ltd. ("West Fraser" or the "Company") (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFG#NYSE">WFG</a>) announced today that it will indefinitely curtail its sawmill in Lake Butler, Florida by the end of this month. Today's decision is the result of high fiber costs and soft lumber markets.
The indefinite curtailment of Lake Butler Sawmill will impact approximately 130 employees and reduce West Fraser's U.S. lumber capacity by approximately 110 million board feet. West Fraser expects to mitigate the impact on affected employees by providing work opportunities at other company operations.
High fiber costs at Lake Butler and the current low-price commodity environment have impaired the ability to profitably operate the mill. The indefinite curtailment of Lake Butler sawmill better aligns our U.S. lumber capacity with demand.
West Fraser anticipates taking an impairment charge in the third quarter of 2024 associated with the announcement.

Diamondback Energy Announces Launch Of Secondary Common Stock Offering Of 11.27M Shares Of Common Stock; Diamondback Has Authorized The Purchase From The Underwriters Of 2M Shares Of Common Stock Offered In The Secondary Offering As Part Of Its Existing Repurchase Program

After a bullish session on Thursday, with both the S&amp;P 500 and the Dow Jones hitting record highs, spurred by increased risk appetite following a bold 0.5% rate cut by the Federal Reserve, traders are gearing up for a volatile <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40944143/wall-street-breaks-records-chipmakers-rally-tesla-hits-2-month-high-as-fed-cut-drives-risk">end to the week.</a>
Friday marks a notorious &#8220;Triple Witching&#8221; day, when stock index futures, stock index options and individual stock options expire simultaneously — a convergence that historically stirs market turbulence.
Goldman Sachs estimates than more than $4.5 trillion in notional options exposure will expire on Friday, including $605 billion in single-stock options. 
According to Bloomberg, using estimates from derivatives analytical firm Asym 500, the overall notional options expiring Friday reach $5.1 trillion when including options tied to ETFs.
&#8220;This Friday will be the largest September-options expiration on record, driven by elevated index and ETF options volumes,&#8221; wrote Goldman Sachs analyst John Marshall. 
While the September expiration will set a new record, it&#8217;s expected to be smaller than the previous quarterly expirations of 2024.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Record-Breaking Expiration Day</h3>
Goldman Sachs highlighted that average daily index and ETF options volumes have reached a new high this quarter. In contrast, single-stock options trading has seen a decline. 
The sheer magnitude of options expiring Friday could trigger a wave of volatility as traders scramble to adjust their position, and the Federal Reserve&#8217;s recent rate cut might not be enough to temper the storm.
Could this triple witching day spoil the market rally ignited by the Fed?
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What Is &#8216;Triple Witching&#8217;? How Did Markets Previously Perform? </h3>
Triple witching refers to the simultaneous expiration of three types of derivative contracts — stock index futures, stock index options and single-stock options — on the same day, occurring quarterly on the third Friday of March, June, September and December.
This convergence can lead to heightened market volatility as traders close, roll over or offset their expiring contracts, often resulting in unusual price movements and increased trading volumes.
Looking back at the last three triple witching events, the S&amp;P 500, tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), has struggled during these high-stakes trading days.
<ul>
<li>June 21, 2024: The S&amp;P 500 dropped 0.5%.</li>
<li>March 15, 2024: The index fell by 1%.</li>
<li>Dec. 15, 2023: The S&amp;P 500 declined 0.6%.</li>
</ul>
Tech stocks, represented by the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), underperformed in the last two triple witching occasions, falling 0.8% in June and 1.2% in March, while surging 0.5% in December 2023. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Goldman Sachs Recommends VIX Calls Ahead of Volatility Spike</h3>
September is historically the worst month for stock market performance.
According to Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group, the last two weeks of September are the worst period for stocks during the year, as the expert showed in a post on social media platform X.

</figure>
The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), often referred to as the market&#8217;s fear gauge, has dropped significantly since its spike in August.
The index is sitting at 17, well below its multiyear average, and Goldman Sachs sees the VIX on the rise as we enter the seasonally volatile period.
Goldman Sachs&#8217; economic model estimates that, given macroeconomic conditions, the VIX should be at 24.5, suggesting the current low volatility may not last much longer.
The investment bank issued a recommendation for investors to hedge their portfolios using VIX calls. Specifically, Goldman Sachs analysts advise buying CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) November calls at a strike price of 18.
