Wednesday will see the a new President move in to the White House, which is likely to usher in a new era of federal action on cannabis legalization in the US.
The new administration has been good news for cannabis stocks. It has also pushed some Governors to make some moves: In New York, those moves are in the right direction, but in South Dakota, not so much. Stay tuned on those fronts.
As well, last week we launched our first Cannabis Retail Newsletter – take a read through: How to serve the cannabis retail ecosystem.
We also encourage you to check out three upcoming events:
Jan. 27 | Level Up Your Online Presence
Feb. 3 | Business of Cannabis Retail Series
Feb. 24 | Cannabis Workforce Training
Stay safe and have a good week.
