$PSIL ETF show the three biggest holdings as $DFTX $CMPS $ATAI Others will succeed too, but these three are the unicorns in the psychedelic biotech space and I suspect they will reach a combined market cap of 80-100B by H2 2027. Currently they sit at 10B combined. That is a 8-10X from these levels.
Bipartisan Congressional Bill Would Codify Trump’s Psychedelics Order Into Law https://www.marijuanamoment.net/bip...ld-codify-trumps-psychedelics-order-into-law/ H.R.9559 - To accelerate the development of, and access to, psychedelic drugs that could save lives and reverse the crisis of serious mental illness in the United States, and for other purposes. https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/9559 Helps with DEA rescheduling visibility, manufacturing quotas, controlled distribution, clinical site expansion, VA-related treatment pathways, and broader institutional comfort around psychedelic medicine. This is also the kind of policy shift that big pharma pays attention to. A late-stage drug with strong data is one thing. A late-stage drug with improving federal policy, potential priority voucher support, and clearer post-approval scheduling rules is much easier to underwrite. Bullish for the whole sector.

Eli Lilly to buy psychedelics maker AtaiBeckley for $2.8 billion as experimental treatments gain traction https://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/16/eli-lilly-to-buy-psychedelics-maker-ataibeckley-2point8-billion.html
It looks like to me that what Libby did just capped profits for shareholders. Instead of continuing to climb to $10, $15, maybe $25 or $40 a share, the path to more than -$8 or $9 /share for the private investors looks unlikely, if not impossible. Since they are probably just going to fold it into Libby and not maintain it as a subsidiary with a separate ticker symbol. Those who bought enough at $2 to $5 a share will still do well. I purchased at $5/share, but not enough to make a splash. So, the lesson for big pharma is: buy out the smaller companies that are going to be successful sooner rather than later, and cut out the early shareholders.
