How to Find the Latest Cannabis Industry News on MJBizDaily

Updated

MJBizDaily publishes daily cannabis industry news on its homepage, organized into Featured stories and a Latest Posts feed. To find the newest coverage, start on the homepage and scan those two sections: Featured highlights the lead stories of the day, while Latest Posts lists recent items in reverse-chronological order with dates. The site covers U.S. and global legal cannabis news, with frequent reporting on regulation, mergers and acquisitions, taxation, and market data.

Where the newest stories appear

The homepage is the fastest entry point. Its structure, as shown on the site, includes:

  • Featured — a small set of promoted stories, often the most consequential news of the day.
  • Latest Posts — a dated feed of recent articles, each with a headline, a one- or two-sentence summary, and a date (for example, "News October 19").

Scanning Latest Posts top to bottom gives you the most recent items first. The short summaries let you judge relevance before clicking through, which is useful when you only need one topic.

Example of how a day's coverage reads

On a recent homepage snapshot, the lead story covered New York cannabis retailers shrinking orders as payment enforcement tightened, with the summary noting that suppliers must now report unpaid net-30 invoices within seven days. Below it, Latest Posts included:

Headline Topic Date shown
Curaleaf pushes back after Aurora rejects enhanced takeover bid M&A October 19
Latest poll shows Massachusetts adult-use cannabis sales repeal failing – badly Regulation/politics October 19
Controversial Oregon cannabis executive charged with tax fraud Enforcement/tax October 16
Bipartisan New Jersey bill targets unlicensed cannabis retailers Regulation October 16
Colorado cannabis vape recall expands as health complaints rise Product safety October 15
Aurora Cannabis board rebuffs Curaleaf takeover again, welcomes other bids M&A October 15
Nebraska MMJ growers harvest first crops with no path to market State markets October 14

This pattern shows what to expect: a mix of state-level regulation, federal policy, corporate deals, enforcement actions, and market conditions, updated most weekdays.

Browsing by topic instead of by date

If you are tracking one subject rather than the whole feed, use the headline and summary text to filter. Recurring high-frequency themes on the homepage include:

  • Federal rescheduling and its industry impact — for example, coverage of how rescheduling affects tax audits, deal activity, and institutional capital.
  • Mergers and acquisitions — bid premiums, board rejections, and takeover negotiations (Curaleaf and Aurora appear repeatedly).
  • State regulation and enforcement — payment reporting rules, unlicensed-seller penalties, recall notices, and ballot or repeal fights.
  • Tax and legal risk — fraud charges, 280E-related analysis, and compliance opinions such as South Dakota's medical marijuana rules.
  • Market access problems — for example, Nebraska growers harvesting crops with no processors, transporters, labs, or dispensaries in place.

Reading the summary line is usually enough to decide whether a story matches your topic; the full article sits behind the headline link.

What to expect from the feed

  • Daily cadence: Latest Posts carries dated items, so you can tell how fresh a story is at a glance.
  • Sponsored content is labeled: Some items are marked "Sponsored" and sit alongside news, as with a piece on agentic AI for cannabis operators. Treat these as vendor content, not reporting.
  • Breadth over depth on the homepage: The homepage gives you headlines and summaries; detailed analysis, data, and legal opinion appear in the linked articles.
  • Global scope: The publication describes itself as covering the legal cannabis industry in the U.S. and globally, so expect international items mixed with U.S. state news.

Practical routine for staying current

  1. Open the homepage and read the Featured block first — it flags the day's biggest story.
  2. Scan Latest Posts for dates and summaries; open only the items matching your topic.
  3. For a specific thread (a takeover battle, a state bill, a recall), note the recurring names and dates in the feed and follow the story across consecutive posts.
  4. Check back on weekdays; the dated feed shows gaps on quieter days, which tells you when coverage has paused.

If you need one topic rather than everything, the headline-and-summary scan is faster than reading the full feed, and the dates let you confirm you are looking at the most recent development.
