Virginia Blocks Cannabis Again, SAM Loses | TTB Weekly Recap

from The Dales Report | Trade to Black · host Dales Media Group

Welcome into the latest Trade To Black Weekly Recap with host Shadd Dales as we break down the biggest stories that moved the cannabis industry this week.Virginia’s adult-use market hit another major roadblock after Governor Abigail Spanberger vetoed cannabis retail legislation yet again — leaving the state stuck in legal limbo where adults can legally possess cannabis, but still have no regulated way to buy it.Meanwhile, Smart Approaches to Marijuana (SAM) took another legal loss after a federal judge dismissed its lawsuit challenging the Medicare hemp and CBD pilot program. And with federal rescheduling moving forward, a lot of people inside the industry are starting to question how much influence SAM really has left at this stage.We also get into Pennsylvania’s growing legalization pressure, new research involving CBG and rheumatoid arthritis, plus earnings and company updates from Safe Harbor Financial (NASDAQ: SHFS), Decibel Cannabis, Verano Holdings (Cboe CA: VRNO / OTCQX: VRNOF), Glass House Brands (OTCQX: GLASF), Planet 13 Holdings (CSE: PLTH / OTCQX: PLNHF), and Canopy Growth (TSX: WEED / NASDAQ: CGC).The biggest takeaway this week? The gap between the strongest operators and everyone else is becoming a lot more noticeable. Whether it’s balance sheets, international growth, infrastructure, or execution — the companies that stayed disciplined during the toughest stretch of this bear market are starting to separate themselves from the pack.#CannabisNews #CannabisStocks #CannabisIndustry #VirginiaCannabis #ScheduleIII #CannabisLegalization #SAM #CannabisPolicy #TradeToBlack #ShaddDalesWant to see more Cannabis Reform?🎬    • Federal Judge Rejects SAM Lawsuit | TDR Ca...  🎬    • Cannabis Uplisting May Not Need Congress |...  🎬    • The Most Important 30+ Days In Cannabis | ...  🎬    • Cannabis Momentum Is Suddenly Building - H...  Want to stay updated on Cannabis, Small Cap, AI, and Crypto?Subscribe to our Daily Baked newsletter:https://newsletter.thedalesreport.com...Find us on social media and podcast platforms:✅ Facebook:   / thedalesreport  ✅ Twitter:   / thedalesreport  ✅ Instagram:   / dalesreport  ✅ LinkedIn:   / the-dales-report  Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/TDRTradetoBlackon...Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/TDRTradeToBlackon...Website: https://thedalesreport.com/For copyright matters, contact:[email protected] Disclaimer (Financial Interests)The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of any company, organization, or employer.
