Trulieve: Don't Chase Cannabis Legalization Bumps

Update - Dec. 12, 2025

As predicted, Trulieve Cannabis was a buy on dips. The stock is only back to the previous price with Trump now expected to sign an executive order on Monday.

-Cannabis stock extended premarket gains in regular trading on Friday after CNBC reported that President Donald Trump is expected to sign his much-anticipated executive order to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug as early as Monday.
-The president is actively drafting an executive order on rescheduling to be released on Monday, according to the report, which cited a source familiar with the matter.

  • Trulieve Cannabis remains deeply undervalued despite recent rallies driven by political statements supporting CBD and potential cannabis reform.
  • The MSO faces significant tax overhang due to 280E but maintains strong operating cash flow and minimal capital requirements, with $401 million in cash.
  • Trulieve is positioned for growth with catalysts like Florida adult-use legalization, new store openings, and potential federal regulatory changes.
  • TCNNF stock is cheap at only 3x adj. EBITDA targets, but I recommend buying on weakness rather than chasing rallies, given ongoing legislative uncertainty and risk of pullbacks.
As with other cannabis stocks, Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (TCNNF) soared on a social media post from President Trump supporting CBD. The problem facing the multi-state operator (MSO) is that government officials have made a lot of positive statements about legalizing cannabis without any official moves. My investment thesis remains Bullish on the stock due to the deep valuation, but investors should be careful chasing the MSO after this big rally.
