Several cannabis and hemp companies are planning initial public offerings in a bet that Democratic candidate Joe Biden will win next month’s election, Reuters reports. Representatives from Flora Growth, Gage Cannabis, BioMedican, and Vertical Wellness each indicated plans to go public next year, in part, due to the growing possibility of a Biden win in November.

The report notes that following the September 29 presidential debate, stock in cannabis companies with US operations, including Curaleaf Holdings, Cresco Labs Ltd, and Green Thumb Industries Inc, rose more than 20 percent.
