$MO Altria Group - 7.7% Value Play / Anti-ESG Money MakerThis holding is one that should weather downtrends should the market shifts to value and rates increase. $MO offers a 7.7% yield presently and long term technical indicators on 1M and 1W all look solid. $MO has traded with some correlation to rates over the past 20 years so if rates are to increase this is a solid safety play and should increae as well. $MO should still outperform bonds/US10Y where growth stocks with no earnings will not. its also probably the largest under-covered $80B Global Market Cap out there and when the market cant afford to "invest with its feelings" this will outperform. Wallstreet has an Average price target of $49 which lines up with some key Fib level and is also my "easy target".

Altria Group, Sin & WeedLet's start with the obvious, MO has just broken the multi year downward tend for the week interval. If that isn't significant you may need to have your sack examined. You can see the trend beginning in June of 2017. People apparently stopped smoking and stopped believing POT was going to get legalized under the previous administration. We can see that since April of 2020 MO entered into a consolidation phase. This is significant because it is the longest consolidation since the downtrend began in 2017. Moreover, the Vix is telling us that we are likely stable to continue buying as we have just broken the trend. In the coming weeks we should see the price begin to move up innocuously and then move quickly. Why will it move up? Incase you haven't noticed our economy is in freefall. Main street is getting brutalized by COVID, GIGANTIC UNEMPLOYMENT, lockdowns, businesses closing for good, mental health disasters, lots of pending evictions and soon foreclosures, bizarre rules about dinning in restaurant and who can open and who can't. To make matters worse the fed is blowing huge bubbles in the monetary supply the national debt is rumbling and quaking like Mt Saint Helen right before it disappeared. They are using fairytale tricks like stimulus payment, buying bonds, and sublime open market operations of which I will not delve into. What this will lead to is very, very, big inflation. We have already seen a 10% spike in housing prices over 2020. All that said it makes sense that we are breaking out of the downward trend. People need an escape and sin is how we all like to escape. That smoking habit we gave up in 2017 will come back with a vengeance when the money is gone, wife and kids are gone, hell even your church will be gone. No more safety nets for you! We now have a totally blue government that will keep no promises except the legalization of POT. ho will benefit from this the most? Big huge pot companies. Who knows how to sell it at this level of the game better than MO? Looking at the technical side I have put together a wave pattern that has a few handsome moves. No need for greed, who am I kidding with no need for greed? :) So who cares about a small gain from $43-$49? Well with a good chance this is the beginning of the great smoking bull and a dividend of 8% I'm in. back to a new high and beyond. I wouldn't kick $77 per share of MO out of my sack. Will it get there overnight? No. Will it get there in the next four years I sure as heck believe so. There is no indicator that our economic hardships are over or have even crested. We are only just beginning to feel the pain. For those reasons I vote with my bucks to roll up my winnings and watch how high these profits can get. Longby Hugesack226

Breakout incoming for the most undervalued stockAltria yields a fantastic 10% dividend return. Cigarettes are not going away, especially not in a time of crisis. I think it can easily go x2, x3. maybe more. Longby Pablo_FiascoUpdated 7710
MO - possible a good spot for LONG.Does the downtrend end? We broke the downtrend which started in 2017. We broke out of the huge triangle. Looks like it's a trend change. MO has investments in the cannabis sector (cron). The cannabis sector is INSANE right now - so I think it will push MO price. so... LONGLongby Icemoney6667
MO Long! [Target: $50] Looks like the formation of an ascending triangle bottom reversal. In addition to the chart pattern, this stock currently has an 8.1% dividend yield. If this stock trades sideways you can still book an 8% annual return. Never mind the ability for this company to enter the marijuana market at scale. As I've mentioned in other posts, I expect to see some capital flow from growth stocks to value stocks. MO is a great target for those looking for cash flow and large dividend payments. This is a great way to diversify your portfolio. **Not financial advice, do your own research** Longby jfs21523

Altria FDA RecoveryAltria is trading at a steal right now. Following the popularity and subsequent crackdown on JUUL, Altria's stock has tumbled ~45% from its high in 2017. The barrage of lawsuits and FDA restrictions has frightened investors, causing shares to plummet. A $29 billion debt and a $731 million loss on a Cronos Cannabis investment have increased pessimism regarding MO's management. Furthermore, tobacco demand has been decreasing since the '70s. It would seem that Altria is an inflexible, mismanaged giant in a dying industry. Although Altria's revenue has only increased from $24.6 billion to $25.1 billion from 2012-2019, its operating cash flow grew from $3.9 billion to $7.8 billion. This means that although MO's revenue growth has been pretty stagnant, it is rapidly increasing its operational capacity. Furthermore, a generation is already addicted to salt nicotine, and while they may not buy JUUL's product, Altria owns the formula for salt nicotine and most of the mechanisms within salt nicotine devices. This means regardless of what salt nicotine device is purchased, MO is getting a cut. The $29 billion debt would usually be of concern, however, Altria's debt schedule has them repaying at most $3 billion annually. This means that MO can easily cover its liabilities/expenses without needing to cut dividends and still have cash left over to play with. The dividend currently has a yield of 8.22%. Not many companies can boast a sustainable 8.22% dividend yield and a potential for share growth. Although MO has taken such a heavy loss with their CRON investment, they still maintain a 45% ownership of the largest cannabis company by revenue. I suspect that this loss will be temporary, and as legal recreational-use marijuana continues to grow, the entire industry will expand. This expansion will make MO's investment profitable in the long term. With a trailing-twelve-month PE Ratio of 9.56, MO's current share price is cheap when compared to its earnings. Price has found support at the 200 EMA on the all-time frame. It is currently pushing on the top side of the wedge, and tomorrow's earnings could serve as a catalyst for a breakout. TLDR: Cash flow increased from $3.9 billion to $7.8 billion from 2012-2018. Holds significant market power using its existing patents. Holds 45% of the largest cannabis company by revenue. Has enough cash to pay existing debts without touching dividends. Trailing 12 month PE Ratio of 9.56. Plenty of room for growth. Possible breakout soon.

MO Broken Channel, MO Inflation, MO Money.Pure USA - MO has a great dividend, an addictive product, and infrastructure in place to leverage MJ legalization. Not to mention an army of lobbyist in DC.

Bullish Setup Idea for Altria Group IncSupply Range was previously balanced and it looks like the price of the stock is merely retesting the previously broken range in an attempt to find enough Buy Orders (Bullish Volume) to continue its bull trend. The recent Double Top has to be taken in consideration when analyzing this stock, but I think that the recent tightening in Vaping Products can boost traditional tobacco products to higher levels/prices. It's always recommended to wait for rejections in lower timeframes as well.by joseafab1
Altria bullishTobacco has always been a save harbor. People will smoke and drink more being at home during the pandemic. I hope they can expand into the cannabis; the future market. Chart should explain the rest; finally gaining strength again.Longby AlexWe1992113
