friends,
The Global Hemp Stock Index closed 2/11 at 5.69, down 3.4% in February and 13.7% year-to-date in 2026. Since April 30, 2024, it has fallen by 51.4%. The index peaked at 92.48 five years ago and has since declined 93.9%.
Many are keeping an eye on the AdvisorShares Pure US Cannabis ETF (NYSE Arca: MSOS ) and it is down 16.1% so far in 2026, and since 4/30/24 the decline has been a massive 64.8% to its current $3.96. That’s only slightly higher than $3.81, where it ended 2024, and well above the all-time low of $2.02 set in April of last year. The ETF currently has about 2/3 of its portfolio in just three MSOs. Including four other positions above 5%, the top 7 represent 93.6% of MSOS.
Cannabis stocks are clearly under pressure. The 27 stocks in the Global Hemp Stock Index were mostly lower, although two of the stocks rose more than 15%, Scotts Miracle-Gro and Turning Point Brands. Neither of these two companies exclusively serve the hemp industry. 7 stocks fell by more than 20%, three of which fell by more than 44%.
A few companies reported quarters that ended 12/31, but most of the companies in the index had their year ending and will report them later this month. I’ll share a preview before then. I don’t think financial statements are what it will take to make things right for hemp stocks. Instead, it requires a rearrangement that will result in termination 280E taxwhich I discuss in this weekly newsletter from late 2022. The good news is that it is still potentially alive. I continue to suggest that it should not be assumed that this will happen. It should happen, and it would be good if it happened. Good luck to all consumers, medical patients, industry workers and investors.
Sincerely,
Alan:

Illinois released sales figures for two months on Friday. The last time it released the data in November, the state did a major review of historical sales after a long delay, and it was updated to October. The previous report was for Cannabis for adults in May. The November document explained that the lack of data was due to the Metrc transition. “Sales tracking features in Metrc help retailers more accurately and reliably report actual sales, including all discounts and promotions at checkout. A careful review of past data shows that some initial discount prices were collected in previous months.” Here is the updated data until the end of 2025.
Statewide adult cannabis sales rose 5.6% sequentially to $116.6 million in December, up 2.2% on the day. Year-on-year growth was -23.9%, a slight improvement from November’s -26.1% growth. Here is a chart of adult sales over time:
After growing 106% in 2021, 13% in 2022 and 5% in 2023, annual sales for adults are set to grow 5.4% to $1.72 billion in 2024. In 2025, they decreased by 12.5% to $1.51 billion, which was lower than the total in 2022.
There hasn’t been an update from the state on medical cannabis in a while. The state exempts the sale separately from its medical plan, and April issue showed that sales fell 1.6% sequentially to $19.7 million, down 13.2% year over year.
