Episode Details

In the latest TDR Cannabis in Five, host Shadd Dales breaks down what could become the biggest decision point for cannabis investors in more than a decade.The countdown is officially on for the June 29 DEA administrative hearing, and this hearing is no longer about medical cannabis. That issue has already been settled. Medical cannabis was moved to Schedule III in April 2026 after the DEA accepted the scientific findings from HHS.Now the focus shifts to the question that could reshape the entire cannabis industry:What happens to adult-use cannabis?Shadd walks through the two possible outcomes and what each could mean for cannabis stocks, institutional capital, banking reform, ETFs, mergers and acquisitions, and future access to U.S. capital markets.If the DEA signals that state-regulated adult-use cannabis belongs in Schedule III alongside medical cannabis, the industry could finally see industry-wide 280E relief, improved cash flow, stronger balance sheets, lower borrowing costs, increased institutional participation, and a clearer path toward future uplisting opportunities.But if the DEA signals that adult-use cannabis should remain separate from medical cannabis, investors could be looking at a much longer timeline for federal reform, delayed banking progress, and a renewed focus on state-level growth and company execution.For years, cannabis investors have waited for clarity.June 29 may finally provide it.Watch the full breakdown and let us know in the comments which outcome you believe is most likely.#Cannabis #CannabisStocks #ScheduleIII #DEA #MSOS #CannabisInvesting #CannabisReform #CannabisNews #TDRCannabisInFive #ShaddDalesWant to see more Cannabis Reform?🎬    • Three AGs Sue As Cannabis Rescheduling Mov...  🎬    • Ted Cruz Says Hemp Ban Reversal Faces Uphi...  🎬    • Trump Faces Pressure Over Federal Marijuan...  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:
