I used to work at Bloomberg, so I of course read Matt Levine‘s “Money Stuff” newsletter, and yesterday I ran across this:

The tagline is “Like if Matt Levine was a stoner,” but there is some interesting financial analysis! Like I was never going to independently arrive at the conclusion that “multi-state operators” are propped up by the high barriers to entry imposed by regulation, but they are getting their lunch eaten in mature cannabis markets by smaller growers. I’m not saying I believe this (how would I know?), I’m just saying it’s real commentary and not just some ChatGPT-style mashup circulated as performance art.
