Cannabis Rescheduling: Expert Lays Out Timeline, Risks And Wild Cards

Briefly: The Department of Justice (DOJ) confirmed that it has started the formal rulemaking process to reclassify cannabis to Schedule III. What now?

Basically: This significant step reinforces the positive outlook for cannabis stocks, and has led some to rally in recent days.

However: Senior analyst Pablo Zuanic from Zuanic & Associates notes that U.S. plant-touching stocks might not see immediate benefits.

Why Not: Zuanic cites factors such as poor liquidity, over-the-counter status, lack of custody and limited institutional involvement.

What Now: On the bright side, the Attorney General has stepped in to expedite the rescheduling process. Zuanic points out that the completion of the Office of Management and Budget review in just 21 days, well ahead of the 90-day maximum, signals a fast-tracked effort.

What Next: Zuanic outlines the timeline for implementation which starts tomorrow and the potential risks and wild cards investors should watch out for.

Doctor: “Doing This Every Morning Can Snap Back Aging Skin (No Creams Needed)”

Looking younger was once thought to be a luxury that only women who had access to plastic surgery and costly professional treatments could enjoy.

A Game-Changing Discovery is finally leveling the playing field, as more women learn to fight back against their body’s “aging switch.” You read that right. According to experts, not only is it possible to slow down the appearance of aging — but most women can easily do it themselves. That’s why the latest anti-aging trend isn’t plastic surgery or expensive creams, but a simple daily ritual that takes less than a minute to perform. (In fact, if you’ve noticed one of your friends looking suspiciously more youthful and rejuvenated in recent months — there’s a good chance they’re already doing it at home.)

However, if you’re interested in looking significantly younger without the cost and hassle of seeing a professional, this science-backed “shortcut” is certainly worth trying at home.

Watch the video below to see how it's done.
