Are you suggesting that after all the efforts and big hype for 5+ years not much, if any, growth in shareholders equity will come from the VLN IP, FDA approvals, etc but rather most likely will result in a loss for LT shareholders?
Depends what your are looking for for sp. Short term we will get a bounce to $3 or $4 but until we start capturing the cig market I don't think we are going to $8 to $12 based on cigs alone. The original mandate would have been a different story. I admit like an idiot I though that the FDA was going to deliver that. I was calling Gottlieb my hero for crying out loud. I have watched my Dad slowly kill himself over the years with nicotine addiction. My grandmother died of copd and smoked right until the day she died and a favorite Aunt of mine is going through the same thing right now. Believe me I hope I'm wrong I've been holding onto most of my shares since 2013, always afraid to cash out for fear of missing out. I have made some trades and made a little $$ but nothing to really brag about. I mean come on there are some forces at work keeping this down. Maybe it is down because of CEO turnover but I don't buy it.
I'll end with this, for all we have going for us right now even without the original mandate we should be double or triple this sp.
I think this is why Cliff had said in his first CC... hemp/cannabis can be potentially "more lucrative" ... in near term context... if I recall correctly...
Doesn't matter to me; how awesome is it that FDA approved our cigs? None other in past 10 years...
I say we get MRTP, and so does PM's IQOS... inside dealings are happening... PM is on board w/ VLN IMO
