In Anaheim at the recent Cannabis Market Spotlight: California event, seasoned cannabis entrepreneur Seth Yakatan shared his perspective on the cannabis industry’s current landscape and future potential.

Despite recent shifts in cannabis stock prices, Yakatan believes the sector remains fundamentally stable. “The technical fundamentals of the sector pretty much remained the same,” he noted, adding that he saw the price drop as an opportunity and “just bought more stocks cheaper.”

Federal Policy and a Cautious Outlook

Looking ahead, Yakatan discussed the impact of upcoming federal decisions on the cannabis industry. He remains “cautiously optimistic” but believes it could be March before any clear direction emerges.

Yakatan highlighted three key areas to watch: the selection of a new Attorney General, possibly reclassifying cannabis to Schedule III and ongoing legislative changes in states like Pennsylvania. “Anything other than that’s probably just speculation,” he remarked, stressing that the path forward depends on these developments.

California’s Market Leads the Way

Yakatan also expressed confidence in California’s enduring position as a leader in the U.S. cannabis market, calling it “still the biggest cannabis market in the United States.”

Although he acknowledged challenges within California’s market, he emphasized the dedication of long-standing businesses that continue to secure investment and make strides in the industry. “I don’t see that dynamic changing,” Yakatan stated, underscoring his confidence in California’s cannabis market to continue thriving.

Yakatan’s observations at the event reflected the optimism shared by many industry experts, signaling a resilient future for cannabis even as it faces a complex regulatory environment.
