QTFV, news.....and about......
Several months ago, when I first heard of Nicotine-drinking water, I was skeptical.
I thought the FDA would step in and put all kinds of restrictions on it.............but that never happened.
Now, they are not only marketing this stuff, but they have signed up several major drug chains to carry it.
For those who aren't familiar with the drug Nicotine, it's a good drug that has received very bad PR.(thanks to the anti-smoking movement)
the OS on QTFV is only 622,649K shares.
On 10/1 they filed a SB-2 to register about 60M shares.
Today, they filed a SB-2A for the same thing, but with a slight amendment.
This filing is NOT for the immediate release and sale of all those shares.
For the most part, they were registered to cover warrants that have a long way to go before they can have value and some CD conversions.
Since there have been no filings related to CD conversions, the OS should still be around 622K.
That should make the PPS VERY volatile,.......but.....
It appears that investor reactions to these SB-2 filings may be holding the PPS down and even making it look weak.....
This could be a sleeper........IMO
Here's today PR........
