America’s largest cannabis companies are effectively placing their legal and business outlook on a single order from the U.S. Attorney General, as reflected by MMJ International Holding’s CEO Duane Boise. The move comes after years of warnings to investors that these businesses violated federal law, implying meaningful regulatory/legal risk if the order fails at the D.C. Circuit. This is likely a sentiment headwind for the sector, with the stock impact more focused on individual equities than the broader market.
