Anyone know when we can expect financials from Q1?
Big spread this AM
Have to work today, but will someone please ask henry if we have met or are still on track to meet the $5 million in sales this year?
The short squeeze is on
People are buying more cigarettes. According to Reynolds America, the money people are saving at the gas pumps is being spent on cigarettes.

Nice day! A little sad about dumping my trading shares yesterday. But who would have guessed we jump 20% two days in a row? Today we have heavy volume too!
The HENRY nay-sayers will be eating their words very soon. 2$ coming and beyond!!
Hammer Time, welcome to my portfolio ANY!
Does anyone know the expected date for Q1 financials?
How much money is up for grabs in the J.P. vs 22nd case? Is it potentially significant to our bottom line?
TIA
3rd time was a charm, Alternative Brews finally got their first ever Red Sun shippment! I was happily greeted by this sign in the window:
Display looked great, paid $15.00 (after tax) per pack. A little steep if i may say so, but this is pretty amazing to see our product on shelves! I had to buy some as a formality.
Without telling a friend what he was smoking, this was his review, "The cigarettes were packed well and burned slowly and Red Sun is definitely a quality product (paper, filter, and tobacco in general were all great). The ember also conned nicely and didn't boat or flake away like a lesser smoke."
Picked up another few thousand today to help me average down. I'm excited to see everyone at the shareholders meeting on the 25th. The only person I remember is Zedster and his Bama gear haha, hope this year I can put some more faces to the other names on here.

Just got a call from Paul at alternative brews on Sheridan dr in buffalo. He just got his first shipment of red sun ciggies!
Going tomorrow...will report back with prices, display, pictures, ect.
Nice! what did u pay for them?
Alternative brews shipment still en route from Cali. Left my number with the owner and I'll post here when they arrive
From the buffalo news:

The 22nd Century Group appointed Nathan Schmitt director of marketing and special projects. Schmitt, a graduate of Cornell University, was previously director of marketing at Reid Petroleum. Also, the company named Karen Goss tax compliance manager. Goss holds an MBA from the University at Buffalo. She was formerly tax compliance manager at Smokin Joes.
Short squeeze coming. Time for the shorts of the past few months to cover
They have no idea. Our Cigs have seen some travels now and it's very peculiar that they needed to be sent to California because that is apparently the only state that would tax stamp them??
Boss man also seemed relatively annoyed at the entire process. He said it's been difficult to get these.
I also inquired about the price and he mentioned that the carton would cost HIM Over $100! (Not surprised with the shipping to Cali and the nys sin taxes)
Newports or marbs fetch about 11 a pack easy. That's why most people in buffalo smoke Senecas. Or as I like to call them sticks and dirt. ($20 a carton on the res!!) aka Fred's "dirty mulch"
At alternative brews rn, no red sun...yet.
"They are on their way" -according to the boss here.
Apparently there was an issue with the tax stamps and their shipment must be sent to Cali first. Others have been calling for it too. It was probably some of u guys on here.

bullish harami on the weekly chart, beware... change is in the air.
Potential bonus bullish signal... MACD (12,26,9) is crossing the trigger line. It should bring in some new traders and investors.
tested and bounced off the same mid-October low (32.20)
Strong Buy signal, uptrend continues
NTEK-
Trading the .02 to .03 has been alright the past week or so. However, with Foley in jail (allegedly) and the new shares galore....ntek is starting to smell like the "stinky pinky" it probably is.
Then again i can't seem to understand UF being featured on devices, commercials, ect; It's mind boggling that a "fake" company is able to attain the high esteem of established players in the game....
I'm sidelining myself for now, but ill get back in on some high volume days which will undoubtedly be accompanied by some BS pump that gets her back over the 50 day MA.
NTEK is a weird stock that has as many fanboys as it has haters.
FACT: Price is declining and more dilution is not going to slow that decline. Destination: Penny-land
Lol at this volume today, quiet green close would be so nice for once. Two green days in a row is a great start
Today will be very telling. We have a long-legged dragonfly doji on the daily chart and (more importantly) a double hammer candle on the weekly chart. The latter is a very strong sign of a reversal. I see this building into a nice run through the spring and summer, just on technicals alone. A little revenue news to fuel the fire and growing sales quarter over quarter gets us back to the 2/3/4$ range.
If anyone has better technical analysis, please share. I'm new to this.
double bottom, Looks good from here. Heading back north.
Breaking 3 would be a great sign, but it looks like a difficult task according to the past 6 days of trading.
Beautiful engulfing candle. Up we go
National news brought me here. I agree that this will probably blow over eventually, but for now this stock is as toxic as the wood they've been selling! The shorts arent done here, not by a long shot.
IMO this is a technical bounce, news from sales will be even stronger
That's what I'm saying atlanta! This run down separates the men from the boys, shake out...then news...and then up from here? I'm over-saturated (as many here are), and the real question is:
If you could double up down here...do you?
The day may be coming where this run down is all water under the bridge and we sit around saying "I wish I had bought when it was .60 .70 .80 cents." Sorta like last march. I remember it well. Everyone bragged about scooping up cheapies for Christmas ect.
Different vibe about XXII this year, Up would be cool direction to begin, but not until I load up over in my IRA.
70s are a sight for sore eyes (for someone wishing they had "loaded up") I'll be buying this week on weakness. Awful investing strategies but I'm young and the shareholders meeting is coming up, I'll chew HENRY out if it's any lower
we are just putting in a higher low and our RSI (28) is below 30 for the first time in the company's history. I would recommend loading up here or in most of our cases averaging down. A move higher is imminent in the next week or two.
This stock doesn't like listening to technical indicators but RSI is one that works for me more often than not. GTTA
For anyone who wasn't listening in to the conference call, I asked Henry a question about BG LLC. To which he responded its not a priority on his agenda, but certainly a great patent/IP opportunity a few years away.
I've been doing my part at the Hamburg 7-11... I dropped off a RS printout a few weeks ago and just checked back today.
Here is what the manager, Josh, heard from his supervisor: "They (7-11) have big contracts with PM (Altria), Lorilard, ect which stipulate which cigarettes they are allowed to display. The companies vie for coveted shelf space at eye level and undoubtedly pay huge bucks in way of rebates, kickbacks, and the like."
He wasn't able to get any RED SUN for that reason, but he said he would continue to try to somehow purchase at least a carton and said it would have to be put on a side shelf (next to the vapor pens/juices/cigarillos/rolling papers). He told me he would love to support a local business, and to my surprise he seemed rather intrigued that the website looked like it was a start-up.
I then tried to sweeten the deal by telling him about the "trade partners program." Response: blank stare
7-11, Probably not the right clientele but I'm trying anything to help spread the word out.
Next stop is the reservation in Akron, gas under 2.00 is worth the trip
all those ever-so-promising Money TV interviews finally paid off! Hold onto your butts! time to SING again. slap the ask!!
Not from a retailer. But I bummed a single smoke from joe himself at the last shareholder meeting. Many shareholders enjoyed one while we admired Spaulding lake...The weather and the investor sentiment were both much nicer back then.
Anyone know the date for the next shareholders meeting?
Nice to see sing is alive. Now let it run up! Long way to go before I'm even
I believe loading here might be the move, unfortunately it was the move at 1.50 too.
We're being harassed by shorts right now but things will look very different in a few months when our sales start to register with the avg. investor.
With "stock giveaways" maybe XXII can "giveaway" something to myself and fellow long investors... a dividend perhaps??
In the meantime I find solace in reading the posts of everyone freaking out, Not much left to do here but hold your breath, Accumulate, and Avg. down. What's another couple thousand when we are down to pink sheet territory again.
looks like Henry is diversifying... thoughts?

Low volume, reminds me of when we were up listed and walked down by MM trading shares to each other, 100 at a time. Taking out stop losses. Getting a lower price for themselves.
SE, PREEEEEACH! China loves cigs.

In at 38. Let's play catch the falling knife! Anyone else open up a position here today?
HEMP. the video shot it up 40%
I wouldn't mind seeing that for xxii. While it would leave us a long way from 6.00, it would be a good start.
