Wednesday, May 1, 6:56 AM Tobacco stocks looks ripe for more gains, thinks money manager L.A. Little. It's a case of more of the same in the sector as the cash-rich companies continue to pump out healthy dividends to attract yield-hungry funds. The usual suspects (MO, PM, BTI, RAI, LO) in the sector look to be steady performers while sleepers include Vector Group (VGR) and Universal Corporation (UVV). 7 Comments [Consumer, Quick Ideas, Global & FX]
Wednesday, March 20, 5:31 AM The Justice Department won't go to the Supreme Court to try to overturn a ruling that voided regulations requiring the placement of graphic health-warning pictures on cigarette packs. A lower appeals court agreed with tobacco firms such as R.J. Reynolds (RAI) and Lorillard (LO) that the regulations would have violated their First Amendment rights to free speech. The FDA will now formulate new rules that address the court's concerns. Comment! [Consumer]
Thursday, February 28, 7:11 PM Vector Group (VGR) declares $0.40/share quarterly dividend, in line with previous. Forward yield 9.97%. For shareholders of record Mar. 15. Payable Mar. 28. Ex-div date Mar. 13. (PR) Comment! [Dividends]
Tuesday, January 22, 1:36 PM It's going to keep getting harder to find a cigarette in 2013 if the state legislatures across the country get their way. Higher cigarette taxes are on the docket in a number of states with traditionally high numbers of smokers. Minnesota in particular, where nearly 16% of the population still smokes, the governor is seeking to boost the state cigarette tax rate to a new rate of $2.83 per pack, a move which is being lauded across the board by anti-smoking advocates. 23 Comments [Healthcare, Consumer, U.S. Economy]
Wednesday, November 28, 2012, 4:57 PM Vector Group (VGR) declares $0.40/share quarterly dividend, 5.26% increase from prior dividend of $0.38. Forward yield 10.0%. For shareholders of record Dec 10. Payable Dec 20. Ex-div date Dec 06. (PR) Comment! [Dividends]

Monday, August 13, 2012, 6:55 AM Big tobacco companies see explosive growth in e-cigarettes as restrictions in the industry broaden again. The smokeless form of cigarettes contains nicotine-infused water that is inhaled as a vapor, allowing smokers to legally "light up" insides restaurants and buses. Making the switch: MO, PM, RAI, LO, VGR, BTI. 11 Comments [Consumer, Global & FX]
Thursday, March 1, 2012, 6:36 AM A federal judge yesterday confirmed a preliminary injunction blocking the FDA from forcing tobacco companies to put gruesome health warnings on cigarette packaging, including a corpse and cancerous lungs. "These mandatory graphic images violate the First Amendment by unconstitutionally compelling speech," the judge explained. 12 Comments
Wednesday, February 1, 2012, 11:41 AM Data crunched by analysts shows that the MSCI World Tobacco Index registered a stellar 13.3% gain over the last ten years - ranking 1st out of 67 groups tracked. New rules and ongoing litigation doesn't faze execs who expect the stable cash flow in the industry to continue, while analysts say the "reviled" nature of the products is creating undervalued investing opportunities. Tobacco names: MO, RAI, PM, LO, BTI, VGR. Comment! [Quick Ideas, Global & FX]
Wednesday, August 17, 2011, 9:41 AM Cigarette manufacturers file suit in an attempt to prevent an FDA requirement for graphic cigarette package warnings from going into effect. Lorillard (LO), Reynolds American (RAI), Imperial Tobacco (ITYBY.PK) and Liggett (VGR) claim the proposed changes violate their freedom of speech. Philip Morris parent Altria (MO) has supported the new labels. 6 Comments [Consumer]
