TOP PICK

Altria Group, Inc. (previously known as Philip Morris Companies, Inc.) is an American corporation and one of the largest producers and marketers of tobacco, cigarettes and related products. It operates worldwide. It sells its tobacco products primarily to wholesalers, including distributors; and large retail organizations, such as chain stores. Social media mentions are up 283% in the past 24h.

HOLD

Holds it for the 8.2% yield. A sin stock, so you're never going to get a premium multiple and that makes these stocks cheaper than others. High quality earnings, good cashflow.

TOP PICK

Good dividend yield and growth. Brian Acker warns that this is a risky play because they don't have a balance sheet. Social media mentions are up 1550% over the past 24h.

COMMENT

The problem is tobacco, which he doesn't like. It does offer a good yield and decent growth.

DON'T BUY

Hard to analyze, because they don't have any balance sheets (which, yes, does sound weird). These stocks have negative shareholder equity, so if something were to happen to this company, there's no balance sheet to help you. It's a high wire act. These stocks are too risky for him. Try to avoid.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly MO is a tobacco company, who pays an outstanding dividend that is backed by a payout ratio under 80%. It trades at 21x earnings, compared to peers at 61x. It continues to add to cash reserves, which are now estimated over $5 billion. Not a growth stock, but when combined with a strong dividend (that has increased for 12 consecutive years) it is good value here. We would buy this with a stop loss at $40, looking to achieve at least $53.50 -- although we favor trailing up the stop if that occurs. Yield 6.9% (Analysts’ price target is $53.45)

DON'T BUY

A good company he used to own. However, it suffers from a decline in tobacco consumption, and vaping is a serious challenge with low barriers to entry. He doesn't know when it will next outperform. Rising interest rates will be a negative, since their dividend will be less attractive. Just because this is cheap, doesn't mean the stock price will rise. Doesn't see cyclical upside here.

BUY

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We understand that many investors do not support companies that cater to our many vices. MO produces tobacco products and wine. However, it is an aristocrat with dividend growth -- it has increased it for 51 consecutive years -- and the yield is eye-opening. It released earnings today that beat analyst expectations. Sales and revenues were down slightly (about 2.5-5.0%), but the company stands by its EPS projections for the year. The company will begin a share buyback that is authorized up to $1 billion. Technically, we also like the re-test of $42.50 resistance, that if broken could see the stock re-visit pre-pandemic levels around $52 -- a potential 22% upside. Yield 7.9%

COMMENT

The sin stocks have always done extremely well with pricing even though the number of smokers has declined. If they continue to be able to raise price it will make up for the declining number of smokers. He doesn't own it because of ethics.
