This video shows the trend of electronic cigarettes, or e-cigs, and implies that tobacco firms stand to benefit in the coming years.

e-cig o’weed will be nice transition for them too.
Very true
Off topic, but has the mini-rally in LVS pushed you towards a short entry, or are you looking for something up into the $72+ range prior to the gap down? I recall you discussing that you were going to consider shorting the bounces.
Need to see a rollover, yes
Been E-Cig’n 2 years now, much better than smoking the tar.
Nice
Tobacky firms would rather buy these small companies out and close them as their margins don’t approach cigarettes.
As the years went by, too many Chinese companies undercut the profits even more. It’s far cheaper to vape instead of smoke.
Municipalities see the tax base dwindling on these things and started the tax discussion at, “Oh, say 95% ……………… to protect the CHILRUN !
Yes ! The Chilrun ! No strawberry or peach flavors as we all know the CHILRUN will take up vaping in order to get to PEACH …….. or STRAWBERRY ………. OR CHOCOLATE !!!!!!
Seriously, states want this limited to tobacco flavored only with a 95% tax to save THE CHILRUN !!!!!
Adults trying to quit the 4,000 chemical cancer stix generally run to just about any flavor BUT tobacco.
Margins aren’t even close, and the Chinese undercut it worse.
With the Chinese, you could get a glass tank, juice and battery to last a month for the price of two packs of cigs.
The American investable companies are junk in comparison. Weak batteries and chargers that break. Weak batteries mean less of an inhale and more backup batteries. The Chinese have already won this one, please don’t invest in the American competition. I could post a link to a chinese supplier of mine if you’d like to see how much farther they have advanced, if you like.
Their $4 juice could last three weeks, their $7 glass tanks could last a month, (with replaceable parts) their $4 batteries could last as long as a year.
Their battery chargers are $3.50 while American companies are reselling them at $12.50.
Ironically, it’s the CHILRUN and hipsters that don’t want the thin American cigalikes.
They want high powered rigs with big batteries and glass tanks for more clouds.
Those models are yet to be produced by a public company, and it’s been more than 7 years now.
