Initially, this is something cannabis investors were expecting to occur earlier in the year. Now after nine months of market declines many investors have lost interest in the cannabis sector and are looking in other areas to find value.
In the first quarter of 2021, the cannabis sector rallied on federal cannabis legalization some of which passed in the House but has reached the Senate floor yet. Currently, legislation like the SAFE Banking Act and the MORE Act could change federal policy on Congress. But Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has also unveiled a draft of the Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act a few months ago.
In general, Schumer did this to gain support from both parties to try and get the bill passed this year. But as the months go by it becomes evident that he is having trouble solidifying the necessary votes to get it passed. Nevertheless, the cannabis industry continues to grow rapidly on the state level.
