Washington just lit a match under cannabis stocks.

President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order as soon as Monday to reclassify marijuana, potentially moving it out of the most restrictive federal category.

If finalized, the shift could unlock lower taxes, broader capital access, and a long-awaited regulatory reset for an industry that’s spent years in the penalty box.

Netflix $NFLX ( ▲ 1.17% ) has gone from market darling to drama magnet in a hurry.

Shares this week have seen their worst multi-day slide in more than a year, as investors digest the possibility of a major acquisition involving Warner Bros. Discovery $WBD ( ▲ 1.66% ). The stock is still up more than 7% in 2025, but the recent pullback has dragged it to its lowest level since spring.

But Barron’s argues that reaction may now be overdone, and investors could have an appealing opportunity to buy the dip.

The worry is simple: cost and complexity. Buying Warner’s streaming and studio assets would require taking on a large debt load and navigating a messy regulatory and competitive backdrop. Add in political noise and the threat of a bidding war, and investors have stepped back.

However, Barron’s believes the selloff has taken much of the froth out of the valuation and shifted the risk-reward back in Netflix’s favor. Where some see a potential overpay for legacy assets, others see a strategic upgrade. Warner’s deep library of global franchises could strengthen Netflix’s content and reinforce its lead in scale.

Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley $MS ( ▼ 1.04% ) estimates the deal would have only a modest impact on earnings in the near term, followed by meaningful upside as synergies kick in.

Importantly, Netflix does not need this deal to win. Even without Warner, Netflix’s core engine remains intact. Subscriber growth, pricing power, advertising, and live sports are still moving in the right direction. Rivals like Paramount $PSKY ( ▼ 2.69% ) face far higher stakes if consolidation fails.

Nevertheless, the recent wobble has reset expectations. Netflix now trades at a far lower earnings multiple than it did earlier this year, despite stronger long-term margin prospects. Management is targeting significant profitability gains by the end of the decade.

Whether the Warner deal closes or collapses, Barron’s maintains, Netflix exits this saga with options. Either it adds iconic IP at scale, or it keeps its balance sheet cleaner and continues executing on a strong standalone path.

A 25-year market quant’s AI model just flipped a switch inside the market — where early money is flooding a sector no one is talking about.
