👉SHFS is TODAY’S #1 ALERT*

Hey Folks, Jeff Bishop here,

Stocks enjoyed a nice bump yesterday, and things are looking good in the pre-market.

Nearly a fifth of S&P 500 companies are reporting earnings this week, including superstars Microsoft, Tesla, Meta, and Apple.

And of course, we’ll be hearing from the Fed tomorrow afternoon. The markets almost universally expect rates to stay steady, but forward-looking commentary will almost certainly have an impact.

I have my eyes on a few small stocks I think can ride the market optimism this week and outperform if things play out.

My target today is a fintech in an interesting niche: cannabis.

As I’m sure you know, even though it is essentially legal in states around the country, companies in this space have a notoriously difficult time finding banking services.

💥You’ll want to pull up SHF Holdings, Inc. (SHFS), and follow along with me on this story.

SHFS is a Colorado-based company that offers compliant banking, lending, payments, and business services tailored exclusively for regulated cannabis, hemp, and CBD operators through a proprietary platform and a network of partner banks and credit unions.

It works with financial institutions to enable them to serve cannabis-related businesses safely.

If you take a look at its stock chart, you’ll see it had a huge runup in late September…

That appears to have resulted from news that the company entered a stock purchase agreement with CREO Investments LLC:

It fell from there, probably due to a series of recapitalization transactions on September 30 that raised $6.8 million in new capital and eliminated $18.8 million of company debt.

That was great news for the company, of course, but investors weren’t thrilled.

The stock has my attention right now because, since December 30, it appears to have found support around the magical $1.00 level I always bang on about…

Companies fight like heck to keep their stock above that level so they maintain Nasdaq compliance.

And if you zoom in, you’ll see it has had two solid rallies from there this month. 

After a 7% drop yesterday, it’s now sitting at $1.04, and I’m watching it today to see if it takes off again from here.

👉  SHFS is TODAY’S #1 ALERT* 👈

Here are the top things to know about the company:

1. Pioneer in cannabis banking 🏦

SHFS has helped build the industry’s compliance foundation. Launched in 2015, it says it was “One of the first compliant cannabis banking platforms in the U.S.”

It has worked directly with banks to handle anti-money-laundering requirements that traditional banks avoid. That “first-mover” status gives it credibility and deep institutional experience that latecomers don’t have.

2. Massive footprint 🌎 

Safe Harbor’s platform serves cannabis operators across 41 states and U.S. territories, giving it one of the broadest geographic footprints in the space. That’s huge in a market where many providers are stuck regionally or in just a handful of states.

Across these areas, SHFS says it has “over $26B processed, 770+ CRB [Cannabis-Related Business] accounts, [and] $108M under management.”

3. Industry’s first fully managed cannabis banking program 💡
   

In September 2025, the company launched the first-ever fully managed cannabis banking program. It’s a turnkey compliance and operations solution that serves community banks, credit unions and financial institutions:

“From client acquisition and onboarding to compliance oversight and account support, Safe Harbor handles 100% of the program operations while deposits are held directly by the partner institution.”

4. Expanded services 💼

SHFS is rapidly turning into a one-stop financial ecosystem for cannabis operators:

• Two weeks ago, it announced cannabis-specific insurance offerings via strategic partners with Frontier Risk and AlphaRoot, offering streamlined access to “tailored insurance products, including property, workers compensation, general liability, product liability and other risk management solutions.”
  
• On the back-office side, SHFS offers bookkeeping, payroll, tax compliance, and CFO-level support.

5. Positioned to benefit if cannabis is rescheduled 🧑‍⚖️

In December, President Trump signed an executive order directing the federal government to expand medical research into marijuana and CBD products. 

He also instructed the Attorney General to expedite the rulemaking process to reschedule marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III under the Controlled Substances Act.

In response, SHFS said it expects significant upside if cannabis is federally rescheduled and if banking reforms like the SAFER Banking Act progress. 

The thesis here isn’t just regulatory relief, it’s market expansion:

• More banks could enter the space, and
  
• SHFS’s compliance infrastructure would become more valuable because even reformed cannabis banking will still require robust reporting, risk monitoring, and fintech
  

Final Thoughts

For your own research on SHFS, you’ll want to review this November 2025 investor presentation and the company website.

As always, be sure to approach your trading in a responsible manner. Trading is very risky, and nothing is ever guaranteed, so never trade with more than you can afford to lose. 

Please read the full disclaimer at the bottom of this email as well so you are aware of our compensation and other conflicts of interest, as well as additional risks and considerations. Always have a well-thought-out game plan that takes your personal risk tolerance into consideration.

To Your Success,

Just so you know, what you’re reading is curated content for which we have received a monetary fee (detailed below) to create and distribute. Let’s be clear that investing can be quite the roller coaster as stock prices can have wild swings up and down, so consider those crucial risks before you ever consider trading anything we discuss. Make sure you check out our full disclosure down below for the details on how we were paid, the risks, and why these results aren’t what you’d call “typical.”

Just a quick heads up about this ad you’re reading—as we’ve said, even though we like the company referenced above, and all the facts we discussed above are true to the best of our knowledge, we are running a business here. To distribute this information and help offset the costs of maintaining our large digital audience, in advance of writing the content above, we received fifteen thousand dollars (cash) from SHF Holdings, Inc (via Virtus Media) for a one day marketing program starting on January 27, 2026.

It might seem obvious, but while our client claims not to own any shares in SHF Holdings, Inc, whoever ultimately paid them most likely owns shares. You should assume they are looking to sell some or all of them at any time after we send out this information, which might negatively affect the stock price. We may also buy or sell shares in the company at some point in the future, although neither Sherwood Ventures nor its owners own any shares of the company at this time. Also, keep in mind that due to the sheer size of our audience, if even a small percentage of people decide they want to buy this stock, it could potentially boost interest enough to hike up those share prices and cause a temporary spike, and the opposite is possible as the marketing campaign ends, though that is not always the case.

Now, diving right into SHF Holdings, Inc might sound exciting. But remember, it’s like venturing into the wilderness—be aware that there’s exceptional risk involved in trading. This isn’t small potatoes we’re talking about; you could lose every dime you put in, so always carefully think about what you’re doing. That’s why they call this trading, after all. We’re shining a light on the good stuff about the company here, but it’s on you to do your homework, make your own calls, and determine a plan for your own trading, hopefully with the help of your professional 1nvestment advis0r.

Oh, that brings us to another crucial point—we’re not here to tell you (or even recommend) what you should do with your hard-earned money. We’re simply sharing our non-expert thoughts by highlighting some companies who are paying us and we like that could use some help telling their story to more people. We’re obviously biased in our writing. We’re not here to dig into anything that may be negative about the company; this is advertising, after all! Also, keep in mind that if we make some predictions about the future, these are technically known as “forward-L00king statements” under the securities acts, so take those with a grain of salt. As with all forecasts, they’re not set in stone, often wrong, and we certainly can’t know where the Company’s earnings, business, or share price will be tomorrow or a year from now.

Everything you read from us is all for your education, information, and possible entertainment. While we believe the info is reliable and accurate, we can’t wear a cape and guarantee it. Before you jump into anything, make sure to talk it over with a pro—someone you trust who’s licensed to give you real advice. To be clear, neither Sherwood Ventures nor its owners, employees, or independent contractors are registered as a securities broker-dealer, broker, 1nvest.ment advis0r (IA), or IA rep’s with the SEC, any state securities regulatory authority, or any self-regu1atory organization.
