US EditionCannabis stocks surge after Trump endorses cannabidiol for senior healthcare
President Trump’s endorsement of CBD for seniors lifted cannabis stocks up to 25%, signaling possible federal rescheduling and easing of industry tax and banking restrictions.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump posted a near-three-minute video on Truth Social promoting hemp-derived CBD and urging Medicare coverage for seniors, sparking jumps in U.S. cannabis stocks and ETFs Monday.
- A nearly three-minute clip produced by The Commonwealth Project targets the 65-plus population, calling for Medicare to cover marijuana and citing $64 billion in annual health-care savings.
- The AdvisorShares Pure U.S. Cannabis ETF surged about 20.6% in premarket trading and is set for its biggest quarterly gain around 70%, while Tilray Brands spiked up to 40% and Canopy Growth, Cronos Group, and Aurora Cannabis posted double-digit gains.
- Reclassification, however, hinges on Drug Enforcement Administration action plus court fights and U.S. Congress buy-in, meaning change could take months rather than weeks despite Section 280E tax relief for cannabis companies.
- Amid congressional debate over hemp rules, about 20 percent of seniors already use CBD while GOP lawmakers push stricter limits despite strong public support to end federal prohibition.
