Pot Stock Surge: Cannabis stocks have seen a significant increase following President Trump's recent comments about potential cannabis reform.
IRS Concerns: Despite the optimism, the Internal Revenue Service may complicate matters for cannabis companies by not forgiving existing back taxes.
Reclassification Discussion: Trump is considering reclassifying cannabis from a Schedule I to a Schedule III substance, which would align it with less dangerous drugs.
Impact of Reclassification: This potential change could alter the legal landscape for cannabis, moving it away from the same classification as more harmful drugs like heroin and LSD.
