22nd Century Group Inc (XXII)

Someone on the Yahoo Board posted that a Confidential Treatment Order (CTO) to XXII on 3.06.2014...implying it was a negative.

Here is a response to the post:

"Someone on the board posted that the S.E.C. issued a CTO "CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT ORDER"...implying that it had something to do with Management and stock manipulation. That "inference" exhibited the utmost ignorance about the purpose of a CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT ORDER.

Contrary to this erroneous "spin" which might have causes the "uniformed" investor to unload his/her stock, it is an extremely POSITIVE EVENT. It is used by a company to hold back reporting on material information (e.g. not include it in Annual Shareholder's Meeting notice re: events and issues to be discussed) so as to more appropriately address it at a later date, in the interest of Shareholders and Public, and to more thoroughly discuss the event as to not cause unbridled speculation or misinterpretation.

When SEC agrees to acquiesce to the COMPANY'S "APPLICATION" and REQUEST FOR AN ORDER FOR a CTO...the SEC issues an ORDER, not against the company, but FOR THE COMPANY.

IMHO...the XXII order which REMAINS CONFIDENTIAL AT THE COMPANY'S REQUEST...is incredibly BULLISH....to me its GOOD NEWS...News that they HAVE TO DISCLOSE, but dont want to right now....

What news?....MSA acceptance is my guess.

The individual on this board who made this event to appear "otherwise" (i.e. negative) ..should be banished. It appears to be pure stock manipulation to the downside to take advantage of "uninformed" novice investors to prompt them to sell so that individual could buy shares in XXII lower. "
