HPNN. Quote:By John Udovich I talked about small cap electronic cigarette stocks XXX and Hop-On Inc (OTCMKTS: HPNN) as being among the last of the e-Cigstocks not controlled by Big Tobacco, but XXX are also positioning themselves or their technology to exploit opportunities in the e-Cig market or even in marijuana or cannabis. Last year, industry experts were already saying that US retail sales of e-cigarettes could reach $1 billion for the year for roughly 1% of the country’s cigarette market. That number might appear small, but its more than double 2012 sales as sales increasingly move off the Internet and into more mainstream retailers thanks to their positioning as a healthier alternative to smoking.

While there is a new study out claiming that electronic cigarettes, or so-called e-cigarettes or e-cigs, may contain a comparable level of carcinogens to regular cigarettes,speculative investors might still want to take a look at small cap electronic cigarette stocks like Hop-on, Inc (OTCMKTS: HPNN), XXX XXX as these appear to be the major publicly traded small cap stocks left in the sector. I should note that all of the major big tobacco stocks have entered the electronic cigarette market (see Who Are the Big Tobacco Electronic Cigarette Stocks? MO, LO & RAI) through acquisitions or their own R&D initiatives, which might mean that an acquisition by big tobacco is off the table as an exit strategy for investors. Moreover and as I previously noted, there are concerns about the safety of electronic cigarettes as their popularity grows while the Wall Street Journal recently reported that the FDA has been in discussions with the e-cigarette industry about a possible online-sales ban of the product.

Small cap electronic cigarette stocks XXX , Hop-On Inc (OTCMKTS: HPNN) and XXX are whats left of the e-Cig market not controlled by Big Tobacco and at least one of these stocks is positioning itself or its technology to exploit opportunities in marijuana or cannabis. Last year, industry experts were saying that US retail sales of e-cigarettes could reach $1 billion for the year or 1% of the country’s cigarette market but twice that of 2012 as sales go off the Internet and into more mainstream retailers. Moreover, they are being positioned as a healthier alternative to smoking (albeit some places have already extended their smoking bans to cover the devices). It should be stated that electronic cigarettes look just like traditional cigarettes and are usually comprised of three functional components:
