<h3 class="wp-block-heading">California: The Toughest Market In Cannabis</h3>
"If you can make it in California, you can make it anywhere," Kazan said, underscoring the unique challenges posed by California's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/10/41547103/new-rules-old-challenges-californias-cannabis-industry-grapples-with-regulations">regulatory environment</a> and market dynamics.

</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Call For Industry Unity Amid Policy Challenges</h3>
Despite the competitive nature of the industry, Kazan urged stakeholders to set aside differences and collaborate on advancing policy reforms. He highlighted missed opportunities in the past and warned of tougher market conditions if the sector does not unify.
"Let's find that Venn diagram where we can work together to move better policy forward in this state and also federally," Kazan said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Navigating Election Aftermath: Optimism Amid Uncertainty</h3>
Addressing the implications of the recent election, Kazan struck a balanced tone, acknowledging the emotional landscape while emphasizing a strategic approach. He noted that Glass House Brands has maintained bipartisan engagement, making inroads with both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump's campaigns.&nbsp;
However, he expressed optimism about potential reform, referencing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/01/36788077/trumps-support-bidens-los-angeles-weldon-angelos-weed-">Trump's pardons</a> of Weldon Angelos and Harry O as promising indicators of his stance on cannabis.
Kazan also pointed to President-elect Trump's support for states&#8217; rights and his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/08/40666944/donald-trump-supports-cannabis-legalization-in-florida-game-changer-and-huge-blow-to-ron-desanti">endorsement of Florida's cannabis amendment</a> as positive signals. "We've been assured that's his stance on cannabis. He came out publicly for Amendment 3 in Florida. Why would he not do that for the other 49 states?"
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Investor Concerns And Future Outlook For Cannabis</h3>
While Kazan acknowledged the uncertainty that investors face given the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40846480/cannabis-experts-say-weed-reform-is-a-race-against-time-is-the-dea-delaying-bidens-rescheduling-">unclear regulatory path ahead</a>, he remained upbeat about the long-term prospects. He cited the growing influence of pro-cannabis voices in Trump's inner circle, including figures like Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/11/41994550/trumps-national-intelligence-pick-is-cannabis-advocate-tulsi-gabbard-critics-say-former-congresswoman-parrots-russia-propaganda">Tulsi Gabbard </a>and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/11/41828359/could-trumps-go-wild-on-health-invite-to-rfk-jr-drive-changes-for-cannabis-and-psychedelics">Robert F. Kennedy Jr.</a> as reasons for optimism. 
"Until the cabinet is named and things happen, there's concern, but I'm very positive," Kazan concluded, noting that the overall trajectory remains promising for the industry.
The Benzinga Cannabis Market Spotlight in Anaheim brought together industry leaders to discuss trends, investment strategies, and the future of cannabis in California's evolving landscape.

Glass House CEO Calls For Unity In California Cannabis Market, Optimistic About Federal Reform

The Joe Rogan Experience or JRE premiered exclusively on Spotify Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>) in Sept. 2020 as part of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/02/25708354/joe-rogans-deal-with-spotify-worth-at-least-double-of-what-was-previously-reported-nyt">multi-year deal</a> reportedly valued at $200 million. This deal wasn&#8217;t just big news for podcasting fans—it was a major moment for investors, too.
Rogan&#8217;s Impact On Spotify&#8217;s Growth
Spotify's exclusive deal with Rogan was a bet that paid off in multiple ways. Since the partnership, podcast consumption on the platform skyrocketed by 232%, according to the company.
Advertisers took notice, fueling a 2023 revenue increase of 80% since 2021. Rogan's show, consistently the world's most-streamed podcast, played a major role in turning Spotify into a podcasting giant.
Rogan&#8217;s podcast also held the top spot on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/11/36004998/joe-rogan-tops-spotifys-2023-podcasts-list-once-again-deal-likely-to-expire-in-2024-a-major">Spotify&#8217;s podcast chart</a> for the fourth year in a row in 2023.

How $1,000 Invested In Spotify Has Grown
If you had invested $1,000 in Spotify stock on Sept. 1, 2020 — the day Rogan's show debuted exclusively on the platform — that investment would now be worth approximately $1,696.
This represents a solid return of 69.7%, outpacing the broader market indexes. For context, the S&amp;P 500 rose 68.7%, and the Nasdaq Composite gained 60% over the same period.

A New Chapter For JRE And Spotify
Earlier this year, Spotify renewed its partnership with Rogan, but the show will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/02/36914209/spotify-inks-multiyear-deal-with-podcast-king-joe-rogan-amid-shifting-strategy">no longer be exclusive</a> to the platform, expanding to Apple, Amazon, and Google&#8217;s YouTube.
Earlier this month, Spotify released its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/11/41920955/spotify-stock-climbs-despite-q3-eps-revenue-misses">third-quarter financial results</a> reporting earnings of $1.46 per share, which fell short of the analyst consensus of $1.76.
Quarterly revenue came in at $3.99 billion, missing the expected $4.02 billion but reflecting an increase from $3.65 billion in the same quarter last year.
SPOT Price Action: Spotify shares ended Thursday&#8217;s session up 2.17%, closing at $477.50. In after-hours trading, however, the stock dipped slightly, settling at $476 as of the latest update, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Tilray Medical, a division of Tilray Brands (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLRY#NASDAQ">TLRY</a>), <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/en/news-release/2024/11/14/2981031/0/en/Tilray-Medical-Launches-its-First-Commercial-Grown-in-Germany-Medical-Cannabis-Products-Under-its-Newly-Expanded-Cultivation-License.html">announced</a> the launch of its first commercial <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/germany-cannabis">medical cannabis</a> products cultivated in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/germany-cannabis">Germany</a>. 
The debut comes from its Aphria RX facility, marking a milestone under the country's recently updated cultivation regulations, MedCanG. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Cultivation License Drives Local Production</h3>
Tilray was the first company to secure the new cannabis cultivation license under MedCanG in July 2024. 
This regulatory shift allows Aphria RX to grow and manufacture a variety of popular medical cannabis strains that were previously imported. 
The indoor-grown products are expected to offer consistent quality tailored to German patients&#8217; preferences:
"Our Made in Germany premium cannabis products represent a significant step forward in delivering high-quality medical cannabis to patients," said Denise Faltischek, Tilray's chief strategy officer. "This achievement strengthens our position as a leader in cultivation, production, and distribution, while demonstrating our commitment to the German medical cannabis community."

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Medical Cannabis Market Shows Strong Growth</h3>
Germany's medical cannabis market is rapidly expanding, driven by increased patient adoption that came after cannabis was re-listed as a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/41885393/germanys-govt-coalition-crisis-is-cannabis-reform-at-risk"> non narcotic</a> substance. 
Companies like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40783859/european-cannabis-producer-cantourage-reports-62-revenue-increase-projects-positive-ebitda">Cantourage</a> Group Sell, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39277081/german-company-launches-largest-digital-platform-for-medical-cannabis-in-all-europe">Bloomwell</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/41884236/exclusive-persistence-pays-off-for-only-cannabis-distributor-in-bavarias-developing-market">Drapalin</a> have reported record revenue, with projections suggesting continued robust growth. 
The shift toward local cultivation by companies like Tilray reflects the broader industry trend of securing supply chains, since most cannabis in Germany is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/08/40369868/medical-marijuana-imports-in-germany-increase-51-yoy-following-reform-cannabis-clubs-still-face-">imported</a>, mainly from Canada. 
Medical cannabis, however, continues to gain traction, with sales projected to reach <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40783859/european-cannabis-producer-cantourage-reports-62-revenue-increase-projects-positive-ebitda">$1.09 billion</a> by 2028. Recent regulatory changes have streamlined access, treating medical cannabis similarly to over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen. 
While Germany has taken steps toward partial cannabis legalization, full-scale recreational sales <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/41885393/germanys-govt-coalition-crisis-is-cannabis-reform-at-risk">remain on hold</a>.

Third Point Hedge Fund Buys Tesla, Dumps Micron

In a market marked by mergers, acquisitions and growing consolidation, Garden Greens is not following the typical playbook. While large operators focus on the CPG model of uniformity and constant supply, Garden Greens takes a more adaptable approach by understanding demand cycles and responding creatively to consumer preferences.
As the industry undergoes massive consolidation, with big companies scooping up smaller players, Garden Greens stands out by keeping its product offerings fresh and exclusive. Rather than sticking to a fixed lineup, they frequently discontinue strains to build hype and create new demand.
In a time when the market favors the largest players, Garden Greens proves that a street-smart, flexible approach can help small and medium cannabis companies thrive.
Josh Krane, general manager at Garden Greens, brings a wealth of experience to the operation. With his roots in the hash-making business in Los Angeles, Krane has a deep understanding of the cannabis culture that many corporate operators lack. "You have to strip away all ego," he shared with Benzinga Cannabis, "and learn everything from the ground up."

You can&#8217;t afford to miss out if you're serious about the business.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Beyond Standardization&nbsp;</h3>
Garden Greens operates under the principle that diversity and creativity are key to creating real demand. Krane's strategy is clear: "We're not just trying to scale. We're trying to build something<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cannabis-marketing"> consumers want</a>—something they've never had before."
At Garden Greens, running out of a strain isn&#8217;t a failure, it&#8217;s an opportunity to create excitement and engage consumers in a conversation. "We purposely let some strains go out of stock. We get more data from a strain being out of stock and consumers asking for it than from always having it available."

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Power Of Genetics For Consumer Engagement&nbsp;</h3>
"We've released about 46 strains, and we deliberately let some go out of stock to build anticipation for new drops," says Krane.
The company runs nine flowering rooms and operates on a perpetual harvest cycle, allowing them to rotate and test new strains while ensuring consistent, high-quality output. &#8220;We're in perpetual harvest. We run about a nine-week flowering cycle. Every week, I have one room being harvested and then reset and replanted."
This perpetual harvest cycle ensures a steady supply of products while keeping the operation fluid and adaptable.
<a href="https://ggcann.com/">Garden Greens' flowering rooms</a> are designed for multi-cropping. At optimal capacity, they can handle up to four strains at a time. The company's strategy is to start with strains that have proven successful in other markets, strains they enjoy growing and smoking, and that will deliver predictable yields and potency.&nbsp;
Throughout a nine-week cycle, up to 36 strains can be tested and rotated through. Krane goes on to explain the rotation process: "We start layering those strains in, four at a time, a week at a time." Initially, they cycle in a set of 18 strains before introducing new ones for testing and evaluation.&nbsp;The company currently rotates major groups of genetics, all selected based on their similar growing needs.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Fashion, Not CPG</h3>
Garden Greens has adopted a &#8220;fashion drop&#8221; mentality rather than trying to mirror<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/06/33061096/turnaround-potential-amazon-nestl-and-p-g-who-will-revive-dying-cannabis-brands"> CPG businesses</a> that focus on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39469809/cannabis-vs-coca-cola-and-marlboro-marijuana-market-growth-outpaces-alcohol-tobacco">mass production</a> and brand consistency. The company builds anticipation before each <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cannabis-branding">new strain hits the market</a> by creating a sense of scarcity and exclusivity. "It's like a sneaker drop. We build up excitement for a product, and once it's gone, it's gone. We've built that by offering something they can't find anywhere else," Krane says.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Cash Flow Positive&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
The company relies on debt financing, with plans to repay investors within 24 months and switch to quarterly dividends afterward. "We've been able to stay cash flow positive and meet our financial goals while maintaining authenticity. We prioritize quality and innovation over cost-cutting measures that might please investors but compromise the product." 
Garden Greens' financial success stems from a combination of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40886620/how-this-former-dea-consultant-is-making-craft-cannabis-profitable-in-new-jersey-a-dirt-y-little">experienced workers and operational management </a>rolled with a smart approach to capital deployment. Krane and his team initially focused on infrastructure, construction, and culivation systems.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Price Is Right: Craft Cannabis Finds The Sweet Spot For Premium And Value</h3>
Krane's pricing strategy at Garden Greens is all about balance, catering to both high-end connoisseurs and budget-minded buyers. "We offer premium products that can sell for up to $140 per quarter, but we also provide more affordable options with our ‘Pete's Farmstand' line."
This dual-pricing model allows Garden Greens to appeal to a wide range of consumers. Limited-edition premium drops attract top-tier buyers, while the value line ensures accessibility without sacrificing quality.&nbsp;
The approach reflects Krane's deep understanding of the New Jersey market, where underground cannabis still influences price expectations. "I've seen top-shelf cannabis go for $150 or more in the underground scene," Krane notes, highlighting the competitive edge of Garden Greens&#8217; pricing.

"We chose to match the MSO price points for premium cannabis to remain competitive," Krane says. This strategy positioned Garden Greens to compete head-on while still meeting quality standards.

The Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission issued new recommendations Wednesday through a bulletin designed to improve workplace health and safety at marijuana processing facilities and broadly across the legal industry.
The announcement represents the Commission's formal recognition of ground cannabis dust as a hazardous chemical that can irritate the respiratory system and exposed skin and marks a major step towards updating Massachusetts' workplace safety expectations following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/22/10/29130552/cannabis-employee-dies-from-inhaling-cannabis-dust-osha-report">2022 occupational asthma death of a Holyoke processing facility employee</a>.
"Today's bulletin is intended to bring increased awareness of an identified health risk in the marijuana industry and will support Commission and industry efforts to enhance safety standards across Massachusetts," stated commission acting executive director/chief people officer Debbie Hilton-Creek. "We will continue to partner with licensees to appropriately and effectively communicate this message and depend on them to implement protocols that will protect the overall well-being of our workforce."
Under the new bulletin, the Commission recommends that all licensees engaged in marijuana processing follow Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) guidelines around hazardous chemicals in the workplace. The Commission also reminds licensees of its obligation to have a hazard communication program which includes the evaluation of hazardous chemicals in its facility and develop Safety Data Sheets to inform its employees.
Going forward, the Commission is advising licensees engaged in marijuana processing to protect employees from hazards associated with cannabis dust exposure by using engineering controls like local exhaust ventilation, plus administrative controls like limiting employee exposure during the workday. The Commission recommends that licensees provide personal protective equipment, and appropriately manage medical situations when they arise.
What Happened: On Jan. 4, 2022, Lorna McMurrey (27) complained she could not breathe, presumably due to cannabis kief (cannabis dust) in the air where she was grinding and packaging pre-rolls. She was taken to a local hospital&nbsp;where she died on Jan. 7. According to the <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/72/wr/mm7246a2.htm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">report from</a> the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), this was the first<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/11/35844553/cannabis-employee-died-from-occupational-asthma-fed-report-confirms-first-such-case-in-us" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> known case of an occupational asthma death</a> in the U.S. cannabis industry. The report confirmed that the occupational asthma was triggered by ground cannabis dust, and revealed that cannabis giant Trulieve (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCNNF#OTCQX">TCNNF</a>) committed three &#8220;serious&#8221; violations assessed by OSHA for which it paid fines totaling $35,219.
In June, the Commission fined medical marijuana giant Trulieve (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCNNF#OTCQX">TCNNF</a>) in relation to the death of a company&#8217;s employee in 2022. A company representative signed a tentative settlement with Commission, agreeing to a fine in the amount of $350,000.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Safety And Sanitary Standards</h2>
Today's update follows a state Department of Public Health (DPH) Fatality Assessment and Control Evaluation (FACE) report and Occupational Lung Disease Bulletin that were issued following McMurrey's death.
As the first confirmed case of&nbsp;occupational asthma in a cannabis facility, the CDC report said the incident&nbsp;"illustrates missed opportunities for prevention, including control of workplace exposures, medical surveillance, and treatment according to current asthma guidelines."&nbsp;
The previous DPH report also included recommendations for marijuana cannabis processors, including training all employees about how to work safely around hazardous materials, developing comprehensive health and safety programs, and monitoring employees for health symptoms.
The Commission's latest announcement relative to cannabis dust follows a February bulletin that advised licensees about new safety and sanitary standards for processing the leaves and flowers of female marijuana plants in a way that is:
<ul>
<li>Well cured and free from seeds and stems;</li>
<li>Free of dirt, sand, debris, and other foreign matter;</li>
<li>Free of contamination by mold, rot, other fungus, pests and bacterial diseases and satisfying the sanitation requirements in 105 CMR 500.000, and if applicable, 105 CMR 590.000: State Sanitary Code Chapter X – Minimum Sanitation Standards for Food Establishments;</li>
<li>Prepared and handled on food-grade stainless steel tables with no contact with Licensees' or Marijuana Establishment Agents' bare hands; and</li>
<li>Packaged in a secure area.</li>
</ul>
Commission's new bulletin clarifies that all licensees engaged in the processing of marijuana have a separate obligation to ensure the safety of workers, and all marijuana establishments and medical marijuana treatment centers in Massachusetts are required to follow Commission regulations that require written workplace safety and health standard operating procedures.

Ground Cannabis Dust Is A Hazardous Chemical, Confirms Massachusetts Regulator

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has expressed skepticism over the Senate confirmation of President-elect Trump&#8217;s nominee for attorney general, former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.).
What Happened: McCarthy, a staunch Trump ally, voiced his doubts during a Bloomberg Television <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqzijZSqwXY&amp;ab_channel=BloombergTelevision">interview</a>. Despite his overall approval of Trump&#8217;s Cabinet picks, he singled out Gaetz, stating, &#8220;Gaetz won&#8217;t get confirmed. Everybody knows that.&#8221;
He also hinted at Gaetz&#8217;s lack of popularity within the Republican conference, implying that his nomination wouldn&#8217;t carry much weight.
&#8220;You'd have to ask the president, but Gaetz couldn't win in a Republican conference, so it doesn't matter.&#8221;

The nomination has caught many Senate Republicans off guard, with some expressing doubts about Gaetz&#8217;s potential confirmation. These concerns are likely to revolve around the Department of Justice&#8217;s previous investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct against Gaetz. Despite the investigation being closed last year without charges, the controversy could still affect the confirmation process.
Why It Matters: President-elect Trump&#8217;s nomination of Gaetz as attorney general, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/11/41956594/matt-gaetz-is-trumps-attorney-general-pick-would-be-top-cop-is-under-house-ethics-investigation">came as a surprise</a> to many. Gaetz, a controversial figure, is known for his radical proposals, including a bill to allow federal <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41964758/trumps-attorney-general-pick-matt-gaetz-once-proposed-collecting-federal-income-taxes-in-bitcoin-apart-from-co-sponsoring-bill-to-abolish-the-fed">income tax payments</a> in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>).
The relationship between McCarthy and Gaetz has been fraught with tension. Gaetz <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35043900/matt-gaetz-challenges-kevin-mccarthys-leadership-response-from-the-house-speaker-bring-it-on">led an effort</a> to remove McCarthy from his speakership position. McCarthy has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38175658/kevin-mccarthy-ties-gaetzs-sexual-misconduct-allegations-to-his-speaker-ouster">linked his removal</a> from the Speaker position to the sexual misconduct allegations against Gaetz.

</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Custom Made: Glass Tips, Flavored Tips, And… Fusilli Noodle Tips</h3>
With dispensary shelves overflowing, how can brands truly stand out? Is it possible to balance large-scale production with unique, artisanal designs? Custom Cones USA has built its reputation on flexibility, offering tailored solutions to meet diverse client needs.&nbsp;
Bard shared some of the more unusual requests they've received over the years, including a proposal for filter tips shaped like fusilli noodles. "We considered it, but the concerns around food import regulations and potential insect issues made us decline," Bard noted with a laugh.

Beyond the quirky requests, the company offers a wide range of customization options, from colored tips and designer cones in various shades to themed products for holidays and special events.&nbsp;
They also provide ceramic and glass filter tips for premium offerings, allowing brands to elevate their pre-rolls with distinct, high-quality touches. "We can accommodate everything from small, bespoke orders for craft farms to bulk shipments for large MSOs, giving our clients the flexibility they need to differentiate their products," Bard explained.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Supply Chain And Design Rolled Into One&nbsp;</h3>
Operating in a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/10/41523813/cannabis-pre-rolls-set-to-hit-4-billion-by-2025-will-us-market-follow-canadas-lead"> high-demand market</a>, Custom Cones USA has faced unique supply chain challenges, particularly with niche products. Thus, the company maintains a robust inventory of core items like 109mm, 98mm, and 84mm cones, often holding two to three months of supply domestically.&nbsp;
In response to the increasing demand for custom designs, Custom Cones USA offers a graphic design service that streamlines the process for clients.&nbsp;
Bard explained, "We provide a full design service or support clients who prefer using tools like Canva. As long as they can provide a vector file, we handle the rest." This flexibility allows small businesses and large operators alike to create unique branded products without excessive lead times or high minimum orders.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Pre-Rolls For All&nbsp;</h3>
Innovative products like ceramic and glass filter tips, along with flavored wooden tips, are part of the company's strategy to meet evolving consumer preferences. "We're seeing a growing interest in premium tip sections, and we're the only company offering these high-quality, in-stock options," Bard explained.
From bespoke color-tip cones for small craft brands to large-scale orders for major multi-state operators (MSOs), Custom Cones USA caters to a wide range of clients. "We offer the lowest minimum order quantities in the industry, making it accessible for both small mom-and-pop shops and large MSOs," Bard said.

Looking ahead, Custom Cones USA is making a significant pivot towards consumer products. The company launched DaySavers, a brand focused on providing safe, compliant smoking accessories.&nbsp;
"There are no regulations for smoking accessories like blunt wraps or palm leaf products, which often fail tests for heavy metals and pesticides," Bard pointed out. DaySavers aims to fill this gap, offering products that are independently tested to meet safety standards.

"<a href="https://customconesusa.com/black-series-humidor-1310-perfect-for-cannabis-pre-roll-blunts-and-hemp-wraps/">Humidors</a> are already common in cigar shops, and we see a similar trend emerging for cannabis," Bard shared.&nbsp;
Custom Cones USA recently launched a line of cannabis humidors, which Bard believes could become a standard feature in dispensaries within the next decade. These devices help maintain freshness and could potentially reduce the need for airtight, less eco-friendly packaging.
The company is also exploring new infusion technologies. "We're excited about the possibilities of bringing<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/12/36268367/u-s-cannabis-market-premium-products"> infused</a> papers back into our portfolio, as it aligns with our commitment to innovation and quality," Bard revealed.
As the holiday season approaches, Custom Cones USA is ramping up its efforts to meet demand.&nbsp;
"Our preparation involves maintaining a strong inventory and leveraging advanced logistics," Bard explained. "Our flavored cones and premium ceramic tips have been particularly popular, and we anticipate even higher demand this year," he concluded.&nbsp;

Editor&#8217;s Note: The article was changed to reflect Renaissance Technologies, not Jim Simons, who passed away in May 2024.
In its third-quarter update, Renaissance Technologies, founded by the late <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/jim-simons">famed "Quant King</a>&#8221; Jim Simons, showcased some notable pivots within its $66.5 billion portfolio.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Microsoft Stake, Trims Other Tech Names</h1>
Renaissance Technologies increased its stake in Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), betting on the tech giant's expansion in cloud and AI sectors, Renaissance revealed in a <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1037389/000103738924000091/xslForm13F_X02/primary_doc.xml">Wednesday SEC filing</a>.
At the same time, the company pared back investments in high-growth stocks such as Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). Nvidia's AI boom and Tesla's market lead in EVs didn't deter the company from reducing exposure, perhaps as a hedge against market corrections.
Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) was also scaled back, suggesting Renaissance might be positioning itself more defensively as tech valuations reach historic highs.
Renaissance's move to fortify positions in well-established tech names could signal a more cautious stance on speculative growth.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Palantir Takes The Lead In Renaissance's Portfolio</h1>
Among all the holdings, Palantir Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) now stands as Renaissance's largest position, making up 2.15% of the portfolio. Known for its deep government contracts and burgeoning AI applications, Palantir's data-centric profile aligns well with Renaissance&#8217;s quant-driven approach.
This shift highlights a strategic tilt toward resilient, data-focused tech plays, reflecting the company&#8217;s long-term confidence in the power of predictive analytics and secure data solutions.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Top Buys: Microsoft, Apple, Cisco</h1>
Alongside Microsoft, Renaissance added significantly to Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>). This trio signals a preference for big-cap stability in a year marked by market volatility.
While Microsoft's AI and cloud growth makes it a solid pick, Apple and Cisco bring diverse revenue streams, from consumer tech to networking infrastructure, giving Renaissance a balanced tech exposure.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is too tough on crypto, 18 Attorneys General allege <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/law">in a new lawsuit</a>. 
What Happened: AGs from 18 Republican-leaning states joined the DeFi Education Fund to file a lawsuit against the SEC for what they consider overly harsh regulation against digital assets.
The plaintiffs are complaining that the SEC, led by Chairman Gary Gensler, is exceeding its authority in an attempt to regulate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41680397/who-will-replace-gary-gensler-the-top-candidates-for-sec-chair-after-the-election">the entire cryptocurrency sector.</a>
The lawsuit contends that the SEC's expansive approach lacks Congressional authorization, which would be necessary for it to assume such sweeping control.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41986427/pennsylvania-introduces-bitcoin-strategic-reserve-act-to-invest-up-to-700-million-in-btc">Pennsylvania Introduces Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Act To Invest Up To $700 Million In BTC</a>
According to the states, the SEC's "regulation by enforcement" strategy has hindered the growth of a sector.
The complaint states, "The SEC's assertion of sweeping jurisdiction without congressional authorization deprives States of their proper sovereign role and chills the development of innovative regulatory frameworks for the digital asset industry."
The lawsuit also challenges the SEC's enforcement actions, alleging that they lack clear standards and impose undue burdens on industry participants. 
This has resulted in significant financial harm, with some companies moving operations overseas due to regulatory uncertainty, the plaintiffs argue. 
The SEC's regulatory stance &#8220;threatens to displace better-suited state laws that have been carefully designed to ensure consumer protection in the digital asset industry,&#8221; they added.
The timing of the suit coincides with a growing national conversation on digital asset regulation, especially as Benzinga's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/events/digital-assets/agenda/">Future of Digital Assets</a> conference approaches on Nov. 19, where key industry stakeholders and policymakers will discuss the future of cryptocurrency regulation in the U.S.
The states seek declaratory and injunctive relief, urging a return to a state-led regulatory approach that would foster innovation and protect consumers without overstepping federal boundaries.

18 Republican States Sue Biden's SEC Over Harsh Crypto Crackdown

A new report from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has called attention to the prevalence of extremist and hateful content on Steam, accusing the platform of enabling the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming">spread of such material. </a>
<a href="https://www.adl.org/resources/report/steam-powered-hate-top-gaming-site-rife-extremism-antisemitism">According</a> to the ADL's findings, over 1.8 million instances of hate-related content, including Nazi imagery and support for terrorist organizations like ISIS and Hamas, were discovered during an &#8220;unprecedented&#8221; analysis of Steam&#8217;s vast user base.
Benzinga has reached out to Valve Corporation, the platform&#8217;s parent company, for comment, but the company had not responded at time of publication.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/24/11/41952020/76-of-children-plan-to-ask-for-video-games-this-christmas-survey-shows">76% Of Children Plan To Ask For Video Games This Christmas, Survey Shows</a>
The report, published on the ADL&#8217;s website, offers a sweeping look at the types of content found across the platform.
Over the course of its investigation, the ADL examined 458 million user profiles, 152 million group avatars and more than 610 million comments from users. Among the most concerning discoveries were antisemitic symbols, white supremacist propaganda and support for extremist groups, including thousands of mentions of ISIS and Hamas.
In addition to the hateful imagery, the ADL uncovered troubling use of offensive keywords such as "1488," "shekel" and "white power," with nearly 185,000 specific terms identified in extremist contexts. In total, 1.5 million unique users and over 73,000 groups were found to have shared such content.
Despite these alarming findings, the ADL points out a critical gap in Steam&#8217;s content moderation policies. While Valve explicitly prohibits hate speech in its developer and community guidelines — stating that it forbids &#8220;speech that promotes hatred, violence or discrimination&#8221; — the ADL argues that enforcement of these rules remains inconsistent.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Valve's Moderation Tools Under Scrutiny</h1>
The ADL&#8217;s report goes on to question the effectiveness of Valve&#8217;s moderation efforts. While the company employs filters and automated tools to screen user-profiles and comments, these measures are not universally applied across all areas of the platform.
Notably, users can disable filters, making it easier for harmful content to slip through the cracks. Furthermore, the ADL asserts that Valve's keyword detection system can easily be evaded, with users modifying words or using ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) art to circumvent moderation systems.
&#8220;While Steam appears to be technically capable of moderating extremist and hateful content on its platform, the spread of extremist content on the platform is due in part to Valve&#8217;s highly permissive approach to content policy,&#8221; the ADL stated. 
It also pointed out that, in rare instances, Valve has taken down extremist content, but this has often occurred only after external pressure or media attention, rather than as part of a consistent, proactive strategy.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Calls For Change In Valve&#8217;s Platform</h1>
The organization has called for a significant overhaul of the company's content governance, urging Valve to implement policies that explicitly prohibit hate and extremism, conduct thorough audits of their moderation practices, and collaborate with researchers and civil society to improve their approach.
&#8220;Major gaming companies are selling their wares on a platform that is not addressing users&#8217; support of extremists and allowing the proliferation of hate,&#8221; Daniel Kelley, the ADL's director of strategy and operations, remarked in an <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-14/white-supremacist-nazi-content-spread-on-steam-gaming-platform?srnd=undefined">interview</a> with Bloomberg. 
&#8220;This increases the likelihood that someone will travel all the way down the rabbit hole,&#8221; Kelley added.

1.8 Million Instances Of Hate Content On Steam — Is Valve Ignoring Extremism?: Report

Former DoorDash Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DASH#NASDAQ">DASH</a>) delivery workers are claiming they haven't been paid thousands of dollars in wages from past years and are seeking protection from deportation after Donald Trump's recent win in<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41768178/donald-trump-defeats-kamala-harris-to-win-2024-election"> the 2024 election.</a>
 What Happened: A group of 95 delivery workers claim they were not paid their wages by DoorDash, one of the leading<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/food-delivery"> food delivery companies</a> in the U.S., or by Motoclick, a smaller food delivery company.
Wage theft claims filed claim the workers were not paid more than $78,000 in wages, according to a <a href="https://gothamist.com/news/nyc-delivery-workers-filing-wage-theft-claims-seek-protection-from-deportation-under-trump">report </a>from Gothamist.
"We're not able to pay the rent or send money to our families in our own countries," Juan Iturbide, a former DoorDash delivery worker said.
Iturbide filed his claim against DoorDash with New York City's Department of Consumer and Worker Protection in 2023 according to a <a href="https://documentedny.com/2024/11/13/doordash-immigrant-delivery-workers-stolen-wages/">report </a>from DocumentedNY.
"Delivery work is one of the most dangerous occupations in the city. In addition to risking our lives, we shouldn't have to worry about being robbed by such a wealthy company," Itrubide said, as reported by DocumentedNY. "We deserve to be paid for the service we provide."
The former delivery worker said he is owed around $1,500 by DoorDash in unpaid wages. Iturbide was deactivated by DoorDash in 2021 after five years working as a delivery driver.
Several of the workers, including Iturbide protested outside DoorDash's Manhattan headquarters on Wednesday.
One of the concerns of labor organizers helping the workers is that many claiming lost wages are immigrants without work authorization in the U.S. Bringing the claims forward could put the workers more at risk of deportation under Trump in his second presidential term, according to the report.
"If the federal government is going to fail workers, workers are going to need the protection of city and state agencies to hold these multibillion-dollar companies accountable," Worker's Justice Project executive director Ligia Guallpa said.

Why It's Important: The claims of unpaid wages could reignite the debate of whether food delivery workers are employees or independent contractors and comes with the timing of Trump's election win and deportation promises. The report said that New York City's 60,000 delivery workers are independent contractors.
New minimum wage laws and rules for delivery workers have added to the claims from workers against delivery companies.
The unpaid wages claims have caught the attention of New York City's Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, who sent a letter to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in September.
The letter said that immigrant workers who have filed claims should be given protection from deportation proceedings and given legal right to work in the U.S.
DoorDash spokesperson Eli Scheinholtz said it takes concerns on wage theft seriously and investigates all claims to make sure the workers "receive what they're owed."
"Here's what we know to be true: Dashers in New York City get paid for the time spent completing work on our platform, in accordance with the city's minimum pay rules. If their pay does not meet the minimum pay rate at the end of the week, then they receive an adjustment — without exception," Scheinholtz said.
DASH Price Action: DoorDash stock closed Thursday down 1.12% at $173.80 versus a 52-week trading range of $92.56 to $178.16. DoorDash stock is up 80.2% year-to-date in 2024.
