The E-cigarette market in the US will grow at a CAGR of 24% to 2018 An e-cigarette/e-vaping device/personal vaporizer/e-nicotine delivery system is an electronic inhaler used to simulate tobacco smoking.

The e-liquids used in e-cigarettes are available in different flavors such as pink bubble gum, menthol, watermelon, peach, and many more. As yet, the effects of e-cigarettes on the human body are not fully known. However, e-cigarettes are considered less toxic than traditional cigarettes as they produce vapor instead of smoke. They are considered an effective aid in smoking cessation. According to the report, the E-cigarette market in the US is driven by many growth factors, of which the increased desire among consumers to quit smoking tobacco is the major. An increasing number of deaths caused by smoking-related cancer has propelled people to stop smoking traditional cigarettes. This has increased the adoption of e-cigarettes among smokers in the US. This report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the E-cigarette market in the US for the period 2014-2018. To calculate the market size, the report takes into account revenue generated from sales of e-cigarettes and related products such as cartridges, refills, and e-liquids.

TOT, BTI and BCS Earnings Reports Potentially Impacted by Research Linking Stock Price and HR Metrics
M2 - Wed Jul 30, 8:07AM CDT
The Human Capital Management Institute (HCMI), an industry leader in predictive human capital management metrics and advanced workforce analytics solutions, released research showing that profit and revenue don't actually predict stock price, but some other, little-used metrics do (http://hcminst.com/linking-human-capital-to-business-performance). The study, performed by Jeff Higgins, CEO of the Human Capital Management Institute, and Pepperdine University professor Donald Atwater, shows that human capital contributions to stock performance are clearly linked. According to the model, a 10% increase in human capital productivity metrics are associated with stock price gains of -.7% to 29% by sector. Human capital metrics are significant in all sectors explaining 35% to 64% of rate of change in stock prices, far more than the average 1% explained by net income.
