Cannabis Stocks Jump As Senate Committee Approves Cannabis Banking Bill
Portfolio Pulse from Maureen Meehan
The Senate Banking Committee has approved the Secure and Fair Enforcement Regulation (SAFER) Banking Act, causing a surge in U.S. cannabis stocks. Companies such as Canopy Growth Corp, Cronos Group Inc, Aurora Cannabis Inc, SNDL Inc, and Tilray Brands Inc saw increases between 3% and 6.5%. The AdvisorShares Pure US Cannabis ETF also spiked 6% following the vote. The Act, which has been in the works for nearly a decade, could greatly benefit the $1-billion cannabis industry that has been operating on a cash-only basis.
