This is a hype play and will have a serious correction. Smart money is playing the MMJ stocks that have been showing growth in revenue over the last year and can support their pps with sec filings. There are two major catalysts coming in two weeks for vaporizer stocks and that's why I have a starter position in some of them. Higher ROI there that could actually be sustainable longer.
$vpor is #12 most read board right now. Let's bring it to #1.
$vpor is moving!
For the FA guys... Resnick Distibution is huge money. Annual report due next week.
For the TA guys...Measured move calls for spike to .0053 on next leg up before consolidation.

I have been working with the numbers to gauge where this could be in six months and it could easily be around .03. That's a 2,000% gain. This hasn't sold off because of bad fundamentals. It was pumped last spring straight after the reverse merger, dumped by said pumpers, shorted by the toxic lender to get below .01, and then contractually the lenders were allowed to start conversion early to avoid lower returns of traditional repayment. This has been a long road, but with the conversion almost done, there will finally be a fair chance for this one to breathe. People also have some fears about a reverse split. First, the company will want the pps to be as high as possible before considering the RS. I would assume there will be an increase in communication after the debt is gone. Until then any Pr is a waste of resources. Second, realistic talk of agreement to use RS tool causes shorts to cover and usually yields a 50% pop in the pps before it happens. Therefore, the perfect time frame to buy and hold this stock is from now until a reverse split vote is passed. Then jump out with an extra 30% - 50% bonus. If you care to invest after then... Jump in after the pps drops on panic. See $ec1g for more on that.
2015 Outlook
PPS should begin to ascend toward fair value as the artificial selling subsides and short covering begins. Debt free very soon, as hinted by the CEO.
Expecting about 3B shares to be on the market once complete, which supports a price at .03 minimum with current audited financial information.
Expecting annual report by March 31.
Expecting debt clearance by second week of April.
Expecting Q1 fins with additional revenue stream (VGR Media) included by May 15. With positive numbers and strong guidance .03 is highly probable by the end of summer.
Tons of updates coming once the note conversion ends.
If all signs point to growth, it's going to be a beautiful year with shares around .05 without buyback. Expect buyback in 2016.
Best current valuation of shares: .035.
STRONG BUY
Outcome of a court decision could be the tipping point.

Wednesday
But it's a different stock now. . . It still counts as revenue?
That's adorable.
Gotta support a market cap of $75m to go to a big board. Right now only $30m is supported.
Vitacig is irrelevant. Different stock now.
Of the top 30 distributors, let's bet on who they net next... Anyone? (See my post with the ppt for reference.)
There are fantastic ice cream trucks and billboards--- PLUS RICK ROSS. Why would you need word of mouth?
I think so. I see it "drifting" toward .03 long term. A "run" could hit .10.
I thought it was awesome when we found the Europe distribution info.
I would like to cite $hémp who had roughly 3 billion shares last year...went from .01 to .34 during the last Green Rush wave. Never say never, but the judge from my hometown has a lot of power to make that happen again starting in two weeks.
Agree 100%. .05 is my stretch goal, barring revenues that blow us all out of the water.
The decision was made Friday that mms won't sell this off any lower. Dilutors and mms gave it room to move up. It did. We will move into the low .002s next week.
$vpor distro news is just the beginning. Keep an eye on them...
Its all in the slideshow. Core Mark is a company I hold in my big board portfolio too so I follow them.
For sure! Speculating here... But it's in Core Mark's strategic plan to acquire companies around the $250m+ level. Just bought Karry's Bros in Canada.
Resnick is definitely on their radar at $310. So what could that do for $vpor? Instant national distribution.
This is the ground floor of a new industry segment.
Thinking judge mueller had to delay the MMJ decision to wait for her tax return to clear. ;)
In light of the huge Resnick news, this weekend maybe it would be wise to think like a distributor. Here is the December 2014 investor presentation for Core Mark, a $10 billion a year distro company. You'll probably find the most interesting content after slide 35 or so. Looks like they're going to be coming for the vapor companies hard.

A year ago I would be screaming that .70 is the bottom. Not now. I learned the hard way that you can't stop the harmful effects of dilution. I hope this can find footing around .20 next week...
Take some time to re-read this letter over the weekend.
Vapor Group, Inc., VPOR, CEO Issues Letter to Shareholders
04/02/15 2:00 PM
DAVIE, FL -- (Marketwired) -- 02/04/15 -- Vapor Group, Inc. (OTCQB: VPOR), (the "Company" or "Vapor Group"), today released a letter to shareholders from its President and CEO, Dror Svorai. In the letter, Dror Svorai addresses several concerns of shareholders that have been brought to his attention.
Dear shareholder:
As a result of requests from several of you, I am writing to give you more information on recent events affecting your Company. I will address these one-by-one as follows.
The Increase in the Authorized: This morning we filed a form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission that increased our authorized common stock from 2.5 billion to 3.5 billion shares. As stated in the 8-K, the increase was approved by the Company's Board of Directors and a majority of the voting stock of the Company. But before explaining this action further, let me review events pertaining to our common stock that are the reason for the increase.
As we stated in the 8-K, and previously in the 8-K of December 4, 2014, we have had, and continue to have, several holders of convertible promissory notes convert portions of their debt into free-trading share. As noted, the Company has no control over their conversion of shares since a condition of their debt instruments is that each note holder can convert at will (in accordance with federal and state regulations).
Important, the documentation connected to the notes frequently requires that the Company authorize its transfer agent to reserve a quantity of shares that is a multiple of the total number of shares into which the note would convert at the time of its making, should the debt holder decide to convert any all or any of it after the six month regulatory holding period and should the stock price decline. Furthermore, such reservations frequently are set up such that any downturn in the stock's market price will trigger an increase in the quantity of shares reserved.
As a result of the recent downturn in our stock's market price, caused in no small part from the dilution of the sale of conversion shares by note holders, several note holders have required sizeable increases in their reserves resulting in a significant reduction in the number of authorized shares of common stock left in treasury. These treasury shares are needed, not only for their reserves, but for general business purposes, including future acquisitions that we are contemplating. In order to make sure that the Company does not default on its notes as a result of inadequate shares in treasury or in reserves, and in order to maintain adequate shares available for general business purposes, we increased the authorized common stock high enough to provide a significant cushion.
Swapping Stock for Debt: As of yesterday, primarily as a result of the large volume of shares issued from debt holder conversions, the number of shares issued and outstanding became 1,426,652,096. All of the debt conversions have resulted in a significant reduction in the Company's debt of over $1,500,000. We expect that such conversions will extend into early April and continue to reduce our debt even further.
Why so many conversions? The reality is most of the financing available to small startup public companies is from lenders who use a business model that lets them hedge the risk of loss of their loan's principal and its profit by methodically converting portions of their loan as soon as permissible. If the Company to whom they have lent the money has adequate stock trading volume, the lender will try to take advantage of that volume by converting debt and selling the resultant shares into the market. With the right company as a debtor, not only can they get repaid their note ahead of maturity, but actually can earn a significant profit over and above the return of the debt instrument itself. To protect their interests, such lenders will also limit, subject to their approval and significant penalty fees, the right of the borrower to prepay any of the note before maturity -- meaning that they have adequate time to convert debt and earn additional profit even when the company notifies them that it wants to pay down or pay off the loan.
To this point, since the first of the year, Vapor Group has attempted to pay down several convertible promissory notes, only to be told "No." by the note holders.
Ending Our Cycle of Debt Financing: As stated, based on the strength of our cash position, we have tried to pay down several convertible promissory notes to avoid their conversion into stock. And we will continue to do so. The recent, rapid returns of our new subsidiary, VGR Media, Inc., will help us pay down about $200,000 in debt this month. As I have said before, we believe that by late in the first quarter or latest, early second quarter, we will have reduced our debt burden by 90% or will have completely eliminated it. As a result of the Company's growth, going forward we believe that we can cease the use of convertible debt financing to fund our operations and expansion.
Reverse Split: Even though there are now almost 1.5 billion shares outstanding, our Board of Directors, for at least the period ending March 31, 2015, and most likely also for the period ending June 30, 2015, will not authorize any reverse split of our common shares. The matter of the quantity of shares issued and outstanding remains a concern to all of us; however, until we have either eliminated or significantly reduced the amount of debt on our balance sheet, which will limit the risk of debt holder conversions driving down the market price of the stock after the reverse, we won't consider any reverse split.
VGR Media, Inc.: Our newest subsidiary, a full service interactive advertising agency, continues to grow and as stated, will significantly contribute to our pay down of debt this month. To date it has helped us to greatly increase our online presence. This ad agency is a "platform" for the sales of our products, vaporizers and e-cigarettes alike, as well as products of other brand marketers. More detail on its results will be released in the near future in accordance with required federal regulatory filings pertaining to the acquisition of this subsidiary which we are now putting together.
Marketing: We continue to build distribution for our line of high quality, affordable vaporizers in Colorado, Washington and elsewhere. As stated before, in Colorado we have this line being "private labelled" for dispensaries and have expanded distribution to include over 100 retail stores across the State for our products. Separately, in March, we anticipate having final approvals so that we can announce the opening of our first "Total Vapor" franchise store in greater Philadelphia. In the months to come we will be announcing more franchise openings in the northeast.
Working Capital: All the startup activities and rapid growth that your Company consumes time, energy and lots of money. Throughout 2014 our monthly needs exceeded our cash flow which is why we used outside financing throughout the year to fuel our growth.
Since the start of 2015, we have not entered into any new convertible promissory note agreements or similar debt instruments because we have not needed the cash. In fact, almost daily, we are turning down offers of additional financing. The fact is, going forward and with a strengthened cash position, we can no longer justify to ourselves or our shareholders the cost of this type of financing.
I predict that 2015 will be our "break out" year. By year-end, we project a stronger balance sheet, a more diversified portfolio of product and services, an expanded and deeper distribution footprint and improved profitability and revenues. We are emerging from the development stage.
Very truly yours,
Dror Svorai

Three month chart shows double bottom and 20 day chart shows inverse head and shoulder reversal off of said double bottom. If we get to .0023 early next week that will trigger a high probability breakout to .0053... Would love to be consolidating around .005 when debt clears.
Well the execs are real guys. Let's see what we can do.
I truly believe this can get to the .03-.05 range with regular communication. If we get another MMJ run then things get weird and could see .20. Hemp did just that with the same share count. But with current revenue and growth assumptions .035 is my target by end of summer. Ppl say OTC volume dries up but if the company plays it right we can be the star of the summer trading session.
I'm fine with taking a few months to get there. That way it doesn't crash.
If we can lock the float until we get enough attention this can really fly. ECIG has millions of dollars trading through it daily and we only have a couple hundred k. If we can get a couple mill in trades per day we can all get paid handsomely.
The biggest thing that will get in our way is people taking profit. To move this up we need to be strategic with our exits. Ie not dumping 20 million shares in one go.
Mine cleared their mature notes and kept dumping. We shouldn't have any notes left. Big difference.
Teens are falling
Run Forrest.
Mms are setting this up to hit .002 in power hour. Mark it
I used to do the same thing with financial reserves for insurance claims. You work within a reasonable range based on averages and sometimes require reserve increases. Nobody is happy about it at the time but the job still gets done.
You always say the same thing. They underestimated the amount of shares they needed in reserve by around a bit under 30%
Only one full note left. Will be absorbed by increasing demand for shares...
Probably to buy $mcig

For the FA guys... Resnick Distibution is huge money. Annual report due next week.
