The DEA is not bound to follow the U.S. Health and Human Services Department's recommendation to reclassify marijuana as a Schedule III drug.

The move by the Drug Enforcement Administration to review the Schedule I classification for cannabis sparked a wave of speculation and mostly positive comments from Wall Street on Thursday, but many questions remain.

Cresco Labs CRLBF, +11.29% was rallying by 9.4%, Green Thumb Industries GTBIF, +16.22% was up by 10.5% and Trulieve Cannabis TCNNF, +21.41% was up by 13.7%. During a Senate hearing in March, Garland reiterated a statement he made at his confirmation hearing that the Justice Department’s position on cannabis will be “very close to what was done” in the Cole memorandum, which was a policy put in place in 2013 that limited the role of federal law-enforcement regarding cannabis.

It’s also widely agreed that the Food and Drug Administration would be poised to regulate cannabis, but uncertainties remain over what that would look like, Zuanic said.
