British American Tobacco H1: Stock Price Up, Vuse Disappoints, I Sell Some Shares
- British American Tobacco p.l.c.'s share price has surged 46% YTD, outpacing fundamentals and prompting me to trim my position and shift to a Hold rating. Growth in smokeless products remains disappointing, especially compared to Philip Morris, with Vuse sales declining and overall innovation lagging. Debt sustainability has improved significantly, aided by ITC stake sales, and the dividend remains attractive and well-covered at a 54% payout ratio.

3-Bucket System For $5,000 Monthly Income, For Early Retirees
- The S&P 500 provides a meager 1.2% yield, besides a roller-coaster ride on a regular basis. It may be a reasonably good investment for younger investors when they are in their prime accumulation phase. If you are a retiree or someone who depends on a regular income stream from your investment portfolio, the last thing you want is to worry about when to sell shares to raise income. We will present a balanced and highly diversified 3-bucket portfolio that is likely to provide 5% to 6% income and market-beating growth with lower volatility and less drawdowns. It will also provide $5,000 on a monthly basis on a $1 million capital.

British American Tobacco: Winds Of Change In The U.S. Market
- British American Tobacco p.l.c. remains a value play with a high, growing dividend, backed by strong cash flow but facing U.S. market challenges.

British American Tobacco's Smoking Hot At 7Y Highs - Illicit/Growth Headwinds Remain
- BTI's rally has occurred relatively fast and furious, underscoring the bullish market sentiments surrounding its new category reversal after the prior expensive write-downs. Much of the tailwinds are attributed to Vuse's market leadership and Velo's growing volume/market share in the US, implying its robust vaping/oral approaches. This is aided by the new category's positive gross margins, with it likely to drive bottom-line expansions despite the growth headwinds arising from the illicit market and combustibles secular decline.

2 Schwab ETFs for Steady Retirement Income
- This post may contain links from our sponsors and affiliates, and Flywheel Publishing may receive compensation for actions taken through them. As the tail end of the Baby Boomer generation reaches the qualifying full retirement age, a considerable number of those entering or already enjoying retirement need to find a balance in their time management. Specifically, they need to find equilibrium between the time they devote to managing their retirement portfolios and the time they spend on travel, hobbies and other opportunities that were hindered by employment responsibilities. For those seeking to devote a minimum amount of work to the former while simultaneously being able to enjoy the latter (without undue daily financial worries), two Charles Schwab’s exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have proven to be a popular solution since the 1990s. For thousands of retirees who want to combine a growth component with mitigated volatility, diversification and income, the Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHD) has become a popular choice. Taking the diversification aspect one step further, there are dozens of financial investment opportunities every day taking place around the globe that often go totally unnoticed and unreported in financial media. For those investors seeking international exposure for their portfolios with a comparable degree of growth, income, diversification and risk containment, the Schwab International Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHY) may appeal to them. Key Points in This Article: These two dividend-focused Schwab ETFs can provide a reliable stream of retirement income. While both provided strong yield, SCHD and SCHY are also focused on dividend growth. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here. (Sponsor) Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF Among retirees, the Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE: SCHD) is an ETF that meets the growth, income and stability requirements of many portfolios that are providing living expense funds for those in their golden years. Designed to track the Dow Jones US Dividend 100 Index, stocks under consideration for inclusion in SCHD must meet the following criteria: Minimum of 10 consecutive years of dividend payments Floating market capitalization minimum of $500 minimum Minimum average daily trading volume of $2 million Schwab deploys a four-step calculation that determines ranking, which may differ from that of the Dow Jones US Dividend 100 Index: Cash flow-to-total dDebt ratio Return on equity Dividend yield Five-year dividend growth rate The top 100 scoring companies are included in the index. If two companies have the same score, the one with the larger dividend gets the higher ranking. At the time of this writing, other SCHD details include: Dividend Yield 3.97% Dividend Payment Frequency Quarterly Dividend Growth (trailing) 16.69% Dividend Payout Ratio 56.99% Total Assets $68.16 billion Daily Trade Volume Average 18.26 million shares Inception Date 10-20-2011 Expense Ratio 0.06% 1-year trailing return 3.92% 3-year trailing return 3.77% 5-year trailing return 12.23% 10-year trailing return 10.58% The top five weighted holdings in SCHD exemplify how the ETF provides investors with exposure to numerous sectors: Coca-Cola: 4.35% Verizon Communications: 4.34% Altria Group: 4.30% Lockheed Martin: 4.26% Cisco Systems: 4.17% The top five weighted sectors in SCHD are: Consumer defensive: 19.65% Energy: 18.80% Health care: 14.55% Industrials: 11.13% Technology: 10.76% A minimum of 90% of the stocks in the SCHD portfolio are also in the Dow Jones US Dividend 100 Index, although rankings may differ. Schwab International Dividend Equity ETF For equivalent levels of criteria selection, growth potential, income, and stability in an international ETF, the Schwab International Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE: SCHY) complements SCHD very seamlessly in a portfolio. Similarly to SCHD, SCHY will only consider companies with a minimum unbroken 10-year track record of dividend payouts, as well as market cap and liquidity parameters. The next 4 calculated elements determine rankings: Cash flow-to-total debt ratio Return on equity Dividend yield Five-year dividend growth rate The top 400 stocks that make the cut are then calculated for historical price volatility, and those that exceed the overall average are eliminated from the running. The final 100 that make the cut that are added to the portfolio, under the following weighting caps, which are adjusted and rebalanced each quarter: No individual stock weighting to exceed 4% No sector weighting to exceed 15% Any emerging market sector stocks cannot collectively exceed 15% Dividend Yield 3.89% Dividend Payment Frequency Quarterly Dividend Growth (trailing 3-years)) 20.29% Dividend Payout Ratio 54.80% Total Assets $1.1 billion Daily Trade Volume Average 361,208 shares Inception Date 10-20-2011 Expense Ratio 0.08% 1-year trailing return 15.46% 3-year trailing return 7.67% 5-year trailing return N/A 10-year trailing return N/A Like SCHD, the top five weighted holdings in SCHY also span numerous sectors: Enel SpA: 4.69% Wesfarmers Ltd.: 4.22% Vinci SA: 4.18% British American Tobacco: 4.04% Unilever: 4.02% The top five weighted sectors in SCHY are: Consumer defensive: 15.82% Financial services: 15.33% Communications services: 13.15% Industrials: 12.07% Health care: 11.44% Some Strategies to Keep in Mind Selection for asset liquidations mandated under RMD rules should be submitted to careful deliberation in order to maintain income stream while preserving sufficient growth to keep up with inflation. Retirees that are relying on their portfolio for their living expense income will likely want to keep the following tips in mind if adding SCHD and/or SCHY to an IRA: SCHD dividends are qualified dividends, meaning that they qualify for taxations at lower capital gains rates than as income. As dividends from SCHY are from international companies, portions of those dividends may not qualify, depending on criteria such as if the stock meets the minimum 61-day holding threshold from the ETF, etc. A tax-professional should likely be consulted if there are any questions. Required minimum distribution (RMD) mandates commence when an account holder reaches age 73. Depending on what other assets are in the portfolio, the long term viability of SCHD and SCHY to continue steady growth and continued reliable income should be weighed against any other assets to determine if they should be incrementally liquidated to meet RMD dictates, or if other growth assets might be more suitable. The combination of growth, income and diversity offered from SCHD and SCHY might weather future market turbulence better than other assets which might be more geared for growth or only for income, and thus more vulnerable.

Zacks Industry Outlook Philip Morris, Altria and British American Tobacco
- For Immediate Release Chicago, IL – May 20, 2024 – Today, Zacks Equity Research Philip Morris International Inc., Altria Group, Inc. and British American Tobacco p.l.c. The Zacks Tobacco industry players have been witnessing soft cigarette sales volumes due to inflation, changing consumer habits, and stringent regulations. Increased costs of essential materials further raise concerns for profit margins. While investments in smoke-free products come at the cost of margins, they have been driving revenues of tobacco companies, given consumers' growing health consciousness. Pricing power has also been working well. These upsides keep About the Industry The Zacks Tobacco industry includes companies that manufacture and sell cigarettes as well as tobacco and nicotine-based products, such as cigars, snuffs and oral tobacco. Some companies also offer RRPs, such as e-cigarettes, vaping and heat-not-burn variants. A few of the firms are engaged in making devices and attachments needed in vaping and heat-not-burn products. Most products manufactured by the tobacco industry participants fall under the strict vigilance of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") and are required to follow the permissible levels of nicotine in manufacturing. Players in this space sell products mostly through large retailers, distributors, convenience stores, drugstores, wholesalers and grocery chains. Additionally, some international tobacco firms operate in the country through subsidiaries. 4 Trends Shaping the Future of the Tobacco Industry The tobacco industry is grappling with challenges related to the inflationary environment, which has significantly influenced consumer spending habits. Economic factors such as inflation, increased interest rates, and Adult Tobacco Consumers' dynamics, including changing purchasing patterns, the adoption of smoke-free products, and shifts in disposable income, have affected cigarette sales volumes. Additionally, stringent government regulations on sales, marketing, and manufacturing, prompted by the health hazards of nicotine consumption, have further impacted volumes. Some guidelines issued by the FDA include the mandatory use of precautionary labels on cigarette packets and self-critical advertisements. As cigarette sales constitute a significant portion of revenues for tobacco industry companies, the decrease in sales volumes within this category raises concerns. Numerous industry participants have been affected by cost inflation. Global inflationary challenges linked to essential materials such as tobacco leaf, energy and labor costs have been concerns. Elevated expenses related to the research, development and marketplace activities of smoke-free products further present risks to profit margins. Increasing awareness of health risks and stringent government regulations intended to curtail cigarette smoking have encouraged many consumers to switch to reduced-risk products (RRPs) or smoke-free alternatives. Promoted as having a less adverse impact on health due to their scientific composition and method of consumption, these products are gaining popularity. More consumers are turning to these alternatives as a way to quit smoking traditional cigarettes. Major players in the tobacco industry have been allocating resources to expand their presence in this category, including investing in innovations to make these products more user-friendly and energy-efficient. Companies have been experiencing significant revenue growth in the RRP or smoke-free product space. Philip Morris and British American Tobacco have been proactively working toward transitioning into predominantly smoke-free companies in the coming years. The continued popularity and resilience of these products are expected to drive positive outcomes for industry players amid ongoing business transformations. Players in the tobacco industry have been leveraging the strong pricing influence of tobacco products, which also helps them make up for high taxes and soft cigarette sales volumes. Since smokers tend to be less responsive to price hikes due to their addiction, this approach is anticipated to continue benefiting companies within the tobacco sector. The prudent pricing of cigarettes has been supporting the revenues of players in the tobacco industry in the face of declining volumes. Zacks Industry Rank Indicates Dull Prospects The Zacks Tobacco industry is housed within the broader Zacks Consumer Staples sector. The industry currently carries a Zacks Industry Rank #174, which places it in the bottom 30% of more than 250 Zacks industries. The group's Zacks Industry Rank, which is basically the average of the Zacks Rank of all the member stocks, indicates drab near-term prospects. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1. The industry's position in the bottom 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries is a result of a positive earnings outlook for the constituent companies in aggregate. Looking at the aggregate earnings estimate revisions, it appears that analysts are gradually losing confidence in this group's earnings growth potential. Since the beginning of February 2024, the industry's earnings estimate for 2024 has declined 2.2%. Let's take a look at the industry's performance and current valuation. Industry vs. Broader Market The Zacks Tobacco industry has underperformed the Zacks S&P 500 Composite, while outperforming the broader Zacks Consumer Staple sector over the past year. The industry has gained 4.1% over this period against the broader sector's drop of 5.3%. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 has risen 27.7% in the said time frame. Industry's Current Valuation On the basis of forward 12-month price-to-earnings (P/E), which is commonly used for valuing consumer staple stocks, the industry is currently trading at 10.24X compared with the S&P 500's 21.21X and the sector's 17.34X. Over the past five years, the industry has traded as high as 12.68X, as low as 9.1X and at the median of 10.67X. 3 Tobacco Stocks to Keep a Close Eye On The Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company's emphasis on smoke-free products, aligned with evolving consumer preferences, has strengthened its market position. Philip Morris is progressing toward its objective of becoming a predominantly smoke-free company by 2030. The exceptional performance of its premium smoke-free brands, IQOS and ZYN, is driving the success of its smoke-free product portfolio. Additionally, this tobacco giant has been positively impacted by its strong pricing strategies. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for PM's 2024 earnings per share The Zacks Rank #3 company has demonstrated resilience in a challenging environment by leveraging its pricing power and prioritizing smoke-free alternatives. Altria's investment in on! has been particularly effective in the oral tobacco realm. Additionally, the acquisition of NJOY Holdings represents a major advancement in the e-vapor category. Some of MO's 2028 Enterprise Goals include doubling its U.S. smoke-free net revenues to $5 billion from its 2022 level and driving mid-single-digit adjusted EPS growth through 2028 on a compounded annual basis. Altria shares have rallied 12.5% in the past six months. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for MO's 2024 EPS has risen by 2 cents to $5.11 over the past 30 days. BTI's strategic focus on growth, innovation, and market leadership in the evolving tobacco and nicotine product landscape has been working well. The company has been benefiting from its efforts to strengthen the Heated Products portfolio with innovative launches like glo Hyper pro and expanding tobacco-free consumables. Additionally, the Zacks Rank #3 company has been enhancing its innovation pipeline by strengthening R&D capabilities, adding device engineering, and forming a collaborative global network. That said, British American Tobacco's efforts to return the U.S. combustibles business to consistent value growth bode well. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for British American Tobacco's 2024 bottom line has declined 0.4% to $4.68 over the past 30 days. Shares of BTI have lost 0.5% in the past six months.

BAT Earnings Growth Shows Tobacco’s Resilience
- (Bloomberg) -- British American Tobacco Plc’s earnings demonstrated the ability of the cigarette industry to keep raising prices to compensate for lower consumption amid the Covid pandemic.Adjusted operating profit rose 3.3% at constant rates to 5.37 billion pounds ($7.1 billion). Analysts expected 5.33 billion pounds.Key InsightsTobacco again showed its ability to withstand a crisis, even though the outlook is a bit more muted than at the start of the year. The maker of Lucky Strike cigarettes last month cut its sales growth forecasts amid weaker sales in emerging markets due to lockdown measures.In markets such as South Africa, Mexico and Argentina, BAT’s revenue has suffered as governments imposed restrictions on the sale of cigarettes or ordered factory closures. In the U.S., BAT now expects industry volume to drop only 2.5%, rather than 4%, as consumer demand is performing better.The big question is how long BAT can lean on pricing so much to offset lower consumption. Higher prices and more expensive products added 8.5 percentage points to sales growth, while shipments dropped 6.3%.Market ReactionBAT’s shares have dropped 18% this year.Get MoreSee more details.Read the statement.For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2020 Bloomberg L.P.

5 Vaping Stocks That Won’t Fold Under Federal Regulation
- Investors purchasing vaping stocks now in order to secure big gains later are in a precarious position. The market for vape products is full of potential and windfalls are clearly there for the taking.However, the vaping market is squarely in the crosshairs of regulatory bodies and under intense scrutiny. Investors are acutely aware that vaping companies with the ability to navigate the regulatory roadblocks will be at a distinct advantage. * 15 Growth Stocks That Are Being Propped Up By Low Rates The stocks of vaping companies that can't overcome these hurdles simply won't last.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips FDA Hurdles Shape the Future of Vaping StocksSource: Shutterstock The FDA has allowed vape products to remain on the market but more oversight is on the way.Prior legislation which stated manufacturers would be required to retroactively apply for FDA approval by May 12, 2020 has been pushed back to September 9. Manufacturers will have up to a year from that date to continue selling vape products.By the end of that period companies will have to have become FDA compliant. Thus, market risk is high given the implications for vaping companies and their stock. There is a real possibility that the FDA imposes outright bans on multiple vaping brands. In that case, the stock of those affected brands will dramatically decline in value, if not collapse entirely.Yet the choice remains clear: companies must submit their products to FDA regulatory scrutiny to have any chance of remaining on U.S. shelves. Companies that don't will be removed from shelves. What Must Vaping Companies Prove to the FDA?Source: Shutterstock Companies must provide proof that their products demonstrate a net benefit to public health. The crux of their argument will be simple: the benefit their products provide in switching cigarette smokers to healthier alternatives outweighs the downside represented to younger consumers. A Pay to Play BarrierFDA regulations are effectively going to eliminate smaller competitors in the vaping sector. Turning Point Brands (NYSE:TPB) has stated that it expects to spend $15-$18 million on the FDA's PMTA (PreMarket Tobacco Product Applications) process.Certain smaller companies will find this to be prohibitively expensive. Companies in that position are apt to go under. Thus, larger vaping companies seeking to gain significant U.S. market share will be at an advantage. * 15 Growth Stocks That Are Being Propped Up By Low Rates Despite the costs, 30 applications for FDA approval of vaping products are currently pending processing. Big Players Will Carve Out A Big Slice of ProfitsSource: Kristi Blokhin / Shutterstock.com A few years ago Altria (NYSE:MO) had its own e-cigarette brands. However, they didn't garner enough market share. Altria then bought a 35% stake in Juul. Unfortunately, that investment went sour after the Juul scandal and federal lawsuits. Juul is not publicly traded.Altria paid $12.8 billion for that 35% stake in Juul, and would of course like to see a return on that investment. The company is currently working with Juul in preparing the latter's submission for FDA approval. Altria's history in the tobacco industry along with their legal resources bode well for Juul gaining FDA approval. Turning Point Brands is another important name for investors interested in vaping for the near term. The company hasn't yet released notification to the public regarding its FDA PMTA application but it is almost certainly going to do so.TPB stock currently trades near $28.50 per share. Shares have lost ground over the past year having fallen from over $50 in July 2019, but have remained fairly steady over the past 9 months. The company also declared a 5 cent dividend on May 27, which may interest dividend investors seeking shares in growth companies. Reynolds American (NYSE:RAI) has already submitted an application for FDA approval. Its Vuse products and long standing history in the tobacco industry mean it should be a prominent player in the space for some time to come. The company is part of British American Tobacco (NYSE:BTI) but trades separately. Vaping Stocks Outside U.S. IndexesSource: Shutterstock NJOY Holdings Inc., has already submitted an application to the FDA for regulatory approval of its vaping products. However, like Juul, this company isn't yet publicly traded.Chinese vaping company Smoore International Holdings recently held its IPO, raising $918 million in Hong Kong. The company's shares do not trade on U.S. indexes. * 15 Growth Stocks That Are Being Propped Up By Low Rates Smoore reported $308 million in profits in 2019 and its IPO was the largest in Hong Kong thus far in 2020. Vaping Shares Moving ForwardSource: Shutterstock Investors interested in vaping stocks will have to wait and see how the FDA responds to the current applications of the respective companies. It's a fair bet that the 3 publicly-listed brands above will gain FDA approval. NJOY has not done an IPO, and thus isn't publicly traded. But it is a company to keep an eye on.Among those 30 applications seeking approval there are likely to be some which are denied. But until investors have more information a safe bet today is that the larger companies above will have staying power. Investors who want a piece of the vaping sector should start there.As news is released regarding FDA decisions, investors can then reassess potential trades.

Turns Out It Was a Good Time to Quit Smoking After All
- (Bloomberg Opinion) -- So, perhaps reassuringly, it turned out tobacco wasn’t so defensive during this global health crisis after all.After indications early in the pandemic that tobacco may hold up, British American Tobacco Plc on Tuesday reduced its forecasts for full-year sales growth as Covid-19 lockdowns hurt business in emerging markets. The maker of Dunhill, Lucky Strike and Rothmans cigarettes depends on developing nations for one-quarter of its revenue.South Africa has banned sales of tobacco products as part of a strict lockdown policy that BAT and other companies are fighting. Cigarette consumption has been disrupted by curfews in some markets, such as Bangladesh. In addition, smoking in markets such as Vietnam often takes place in bars and restaurants. With establishments closed, or consumers reluctant to venture out, there was less temptation to light up.This slowdown provides good reason for pause for investors in BAT, led by the relatively new Chief Executive Officer Jack Bowles. With higher smoking rates, and the potential for consumers to trade up to more expensive brands as average incomes grow, these regions are supposed to offset the deterioration in developed markets as people there quit smoking. But now, because of the coronavirus hit, BAT expects a 7% decline in global industry sales volumes of cigarettes and heated-tobacco devices this year, more than the previously anticipated 5% fall.This scenario has implications for competitors such as Philip Morris International Inc. and Japan Tobacco Inc., which produces Winston and Benson & Hedges cigarettes. Japan Tobacco has been using its strong balance sheet to buy emerging-market brands over the past few years.As the contagion spread and shined a spotlight on potential risks related to smoking, lockdowns meant BAT had to delay launches of new devices that heat rather than burn tobacco and electronic cigarettes, because the stores where they’re sold were shut. The U.S. market, the world’s biggest for electronic cigarettes, was already struggling to recover after a spate of illnesses and deaths last year related to vaping.Consequently, BAT expects to reach its target of annual sales of 5 billion pounds ($6.4 billion) from tobacco alternatives a year later than planned, in 2025. The dislocation across cigarettes and newer products will lead to lower underlying earnings growth this year than previously forecast, as well as a slower reduction in debt.However, it’s still too early to throw out the thesis that people will reach for cigarettes no matter what’s happening. In developed markets, consumption is holding up. In the U.S., for example, industry volumes could now fall by only about 4% this year, compared with the 5% previously anticipated, amid signs pointing to BAT gaining market share and few consumers are switching to cheaper brands.Vaping as a category is still reeling, but BAT is making headway with its Vuse and Vype brands. And it continues to invest in its tobacco heating device Glo, as well as in oral tobacco Velo. The strategy of having a balanced portfolio of new-generation products is wise. It’s not yet clear which of these categories will be the winner as traditional cigarette sales decline.True, BAT had to lower its outlook and there is a risk that smokers will seek out cheaper brands in a recession, but at least the company is updating investors regularly. It also remains committed to its policy of paying out 65% of underlying earnings per share. Rival Imperial Brands Plc cut its dividend last month.BAT has not been immune from the pandemic, but the company is positioning itself well for the future. And who knows, its biotech subsidiary might even come up with a Covid-19 vaccine.This column does not necessarily reflect the opinion of the editorial board or Bloomberg LP and its owners.Andrea Felsted is a Bloomberg Opinion columnist covering the consumer and retail industries.

BAT cuts profit view in first sign of COVID hit to Big Tobacco
- Shares in the world's second largest cigarette maker fell almost 4% after it lowered revenue and profit growth estimates for this year by a couple of percentage points each. Big developing markets including South Africa, where tobacco sales have been banned since March, have extended restrictions, while curbs have also continued on bars in countries including Vietnam. Marlboro maker Altria pulled its forecast for the current financial year in April, but along with Gauloises maker Imperial Brands has so far given little guidance on the impact of the lockdowns on demand for the rest of the year.

BAT warns of sales hit from lockdowns
- British American Tobacco warned of slowing revenue growth and cut its forecasts as lockdowns in emerging markets such as Mexico and Argentina hit sales. The maker of Lucky Strike and Camel cigarettes on Tuesday said it expected revenue growth of between 1 and 3 per cent in 2020, down from its previous guidance of between 3 and 5 per cent. The tobacco group blamed the impact of the pandemic in emerging markets, which account for around 25 per cent of BAT’s sales and have long bucked the trend of declining smoking rates around the world.

- British American Tobacco (NYSE: BTI) is a London-based company, but its acquisition of Reynolds American in 2017 gave BAT the No. 2 position in U.S. cigarette market share.

Below, we'll look more closely at British American Tobacco and whether its stock is a good buy.

Will Cigarette Companies Save Us From COVID-19?
- Although there are many companies pursuing a vaccine for COVID-19, the tobacco industry may be one of the more surprising combatants in this battle. Both British American Tobacco (NYSE: BTI) and Philip Morris International (NYSE: PM) are working on a vaccine for the disease. Unlike automakers or cosmetics companies converting production facilities to make personal protective equipment, it's not the actual manufacturing units of the tobacco companies working to fight COVID-19, but rather their biotech divisions.

7 Sin Stocks To Buy During The Coronavirus Shutdown
- There's no question Americans are facing unprecedented stresses these days. Data suggests some Americans are relying on vices such as alcohol, tobacco and cannabis to get through the health crisis. At the same time, gamblers have been driven online for the time being due to casino closures.When times are good, people like to celebrate with a drink or a smoke or a roll of the dice. When times are hard, they turn to these activities as a distraction or a means of self-medication. Regardless of how you feel about the activities themselves, here are seven "sin stocks" to buy that Morningstar analysts say have significant upside.Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE: PM)Philip Morris is one of the largest global tobacco companies and holds nearly a 30% market share of the international cigarette and heated tobacco markets.Analyst Philip Gorham says Marlboro customer loyalty is extremely high and Philip Morris has considerable pricing power. The company has a first-mover advantage in heated tobacco, but it remains to be seen whether or not heated tobacco can completely offset lost cigarette volumes over time. Gorham says a successful launch of iQOS in the U.S. would generate completely incremental revenue given the company currently has no U.S. products.Philip Morris shares also pay a sizable 6.9% dividend.Morningstar has a Buy rating and $98 price target for PM stock.See Also: 7 Best Cheap Stocks To Buy Or Sell Cronos Group Inc (NASDAQ: CRON)Cronos is one of the "big four" Canadian legal producers of cannabis and owner of brands such as PEACE NATURALS, COVE and Lord Jones. Cronos reported impressive 180% revenue growth in the first quarter, but it also reported a $45 million operating loss.Analyst Kristoffer Inton says write-downs associated with lower prices due to oversupply in the Canadian market were the cause of the loss. However, Inton says Cronos' write-downs are shrinking, whereas other cannabis producers' losses are growing. Morningstar is projecting Canadian cannabis demand will grow 20% annually over the next decade, and Cronos has the balance sheet to expand its market share.Morningstar has a Buy rating and $8.50 fair value estimate for CRON stock.Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE: LVS)Las Vegas Sands is an international casino operator that owns casino resorts and hotels in Las Vegas, Macau and Singapore. Analyst Dan Wasiolek says Macau and Singapore are the keys to the bull case for Las Vegas Sands.Macau accounted for about 59% of Sands' earnings in 2019, and Singapore was another 31%. Wasiolek says Sand's has a dominant position in the high-growth Cotai Strip in Macau, and it has a duopoly in place in Singapore through at least 2030. COVID-19 shutdowns in Las Vegas and a 97% drop in gross gaming revenue due to COVID-19 may be scary, but Wasiolek estimates Las Vegas sands has 18 months of liquidity at nearly zero revenue.Mornigstar has a Buy rating and $62 fair value estimate for LVS stock.British American Tobacco PLC (NYSE: BTI)British American Tobacco is an international tobacco company that owns brands such as Lucky Strike, Newport and Camel and generates 45% of its revenue from the U.S. market.While cigarette volumes are likely in secular decline, Gorham says British American's accelerated volume declines in fiscal 2019 may be particularly troubling to investors. However, he says the company may be best-positioned to capitalize on the next generation of tobacco products, including its Vype and Vuse vaping brands an Glo heated tobacco brand. Gorham says British American's buyout of Reynolds American was a solid strategic move given its pricing power and the value of its assets.Morningstar has a Buy rating and $59 target for BTI stock.Anheuser Busch Inbev NV (NYSE: BUD)Anheuser Busch Inbev is the world's largest brewer and owner of brands such as Budweiser, Beck's and Corona.Gorham says the worst of the downturn may be yet to come for Anheuser Busch, but the company has plenty of liquidity to navigate the crisis. In the longer term, he says the company's near monopoly and cost advantages in developed markets make the stock a solid investment, and its potential for free cash flow generation isn't fully priced in at current levels. Gorham projects volumes will fall 20% in the first half of 2020 and only 7% in the second half of the year.Morningstar has a Buy rating and $96 fair value estimate for BUD stock.Altria Group Inc (NYSE: MO)Altria Group is one of the world's largest tobacco companies, but it's also one of the most diversified sin stocks. In addition to being the parent company of Philip Morris USA, Altria has a more than 10% ownership stake in Anheuser Busch, a 35% stake in vaping leader JUUL, and a 45% stake in cannabis stock Cronos.Gorham says COVID-19 has certainly disrupted Altria's business, but its underlying business trends in the first quarter appear to be solid. Cigarette shipment volume was up 6%, and management reiterated its guidance that industry-wide volume will drop between 4% and 6% this year.Morningstar has a Buy rating and $54 fair value estimate for MO stock.See Also: 7 Best-Performing Stocks Of 2020: Buy, Sell Or Hold?Constellation Brands, Inc. (NYSE: STZ)Constellation Brands is one of the world's largest producers of wine, spirits and imported beer and owns brands such as Arbor Mist, Black Velvet and SVEDKA. Constellation also recently upped its ownership stake in leading Canadian cannabis producer Canopy Growth Corp (NYSE: CGC) to nearly 40%.Analyst Nicholas Johnson says Constellation's beer business should help support numbers for now, and the sell-off in the stock has pushed it to "egregiously cheap" levels. In fact, given his bullish long-term outlook for Constellation, Johnson says it's his top stock pick in the pure-play beverage group.Morningstar has a Buy rating and $215 price target for STZ stock.Latest Ratings for CRON DateFirmActionFromTo May 2020StifelMaintainsHold Apr 2020Piper SandlerDowngradesOverweightNeutral Apr 2020B of A SecuritiesDowngradesBuyNeutral View More Analyst Ratings for CRON View the Latest Analyst RatingsSee more from Benzinga * Here's How Much Investing 0 In The 2018 Cronos Listing Would Be Worth Today * The Road To Recovery For Las Vegas Casino Stocks * Cannabis Stock Rally Puts Short Sellers In The Red For 2020(C) 2020 Benzinga.com.

See this week’s top stories from QuickTake here.Trump Seeks to Force Hospitals to Open Books (5:55 p.m. NY)The White House wants Congress to require hospitals and insurers to reveal the prices they negotiate for medical services as part of the next round of coronavirus stimulus, in an effort to short-circuit a legal battle with the health care industry.The U.S. Health and Human Services department published two regulations last year requiring the prices be made public. The industry challenged the rule in court arguing it’s violates the First Amendment, and delayed its implementation. The White House believes making it a law would end the matter, according to people familiar with the matter.N.Y. Tax Revenue Fell 68% in April (5:40 p.m. NY)New York state’s tax revenue plummeted 68.4% in April, as the lockdowns and the extension of tax return filings to July 15 took a toll. It collected $3.7 billion, or $7.9 billion less than the previous April. Personal income-tax revenue fell more than $7 billion from last April, a drop that was primarily due to the delayed tax filing deadline.“New York is facing economic devastation not seen since the Great Depression,” New York Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli said in a news release. “New York and other hard-hit states need the federal government to step up and provide assistance, or the state will have to take draconian actions to balance its budget.”Portual Set to Reopen Beaches (4:50 p.m. NY)Portugal plans to reopen beaches popular with tourists on June 6 as the government eases confinement measures and adopts new rules to keep 1.5 meters (5 feet) between people, Prime Minister Antonio Costa said at a Lisbon news conference. Signs will show the crowd size at any beach, and some may close if too many people congregate. Tourism, including on Portugal’s Atlantic coast, accounts for about 15% of the economy and 9% of employment.NIH Director, Labor Secretary Join Task Force (4:30 p.m. NY)U.S. National Institutes of Health Director Francis Collins and Labor Secretary Gene Scalia are among five new appointees to the White House coronavirus task force, which Vice President Mike Pence said is focusing on getting U.S. business reopened. Pence, the chairman, also added Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue to the 23-member group along with Peter Marks, director of the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research; and Thomas Engels, administrator of the Health Resources and Services Administration.Fed Warns of Asset Price Plunge (4:15 p.m. NY)The Federal Reserve in a stark warning said stock and other asset prices could suffer “significant declines” should the pandemic deepen, with commercial real estate being among the hardest-hit.The Fed’s twice-yearly financial stability report flagged risks to the banking system and broader economy and highlighted its race to intervene in markets and temporarily dial back rules on financial firms amid the outbreak.The abrupt shutdown of economies triggered market uncertainty that upended trading from Treasury securities to junk bonds and led to dramatic swings in prices. Markets settled as the Fed flooded the financial system with liquidity.U.S. Cases Rise 2%, Above Week Average (4 p.m. NY)Coronavirus cases in the U.S. increased 2% compared with the same time Thursday to 1.43 million, according to data collected by Johns Hopkins University and Bloomberg News. The increase was above the average daily increase of 1.7% over the past week. Deaths rose 2% to 86,744.New York had 132 deaths, according to Governor Andrew Cuomo. That marked the state’s fifth straight day of deaths below 200 and the first time deaths fell below 150 in seven weeks.In New Jersey, deaths increased by 201 to 10,138, a 2% increase over 24 hours. New cases rose 1% to 143,905, according to Governor Phil Murphy.Florida reported 44,138 cases, up 2.1% from a day earlier, according to the state’s health department. Deaths rose 2.4% to 1,197.California’s cases rose 2.4% to 74,936 while deaths rose 2.5% to 3,108, according to the state’s website.Spain Advances Reopening for 70% of Nation (3:25 p.m. NY)Spain put about 70% of the nation’s population into the second phase of a four-step reopening process, Health Minister Salvador Illa said. Madrid and Barcelona, the nation’s two biggest cities, will remain in the restrictive first phase, he said. Certain rules also are being eased, such as allowing shops to operate without the need for appointments, but Illa said limits will remain on the number of employees per client.Mall of America to Reopen June 1 (2:20 p.m. NY)Minnesota’s sprawling Mall of America will reopen June 1, two weeks after the state allowed on-site retail to resume. The mall, which got 40 million annual visitors before the pandemic, said tenants need time to rehire and train staff as well as clean, sanitize and take safety measures. When open, the 2.5-million-square-foot mall near Minneapolis will limit customers to 50% of capacity. Restaurants and play areas will stay closed until state officials approve.Florida Allows Gyms to Reopen (1:28 p.m NY)Florida gyms can reopen, and retailers and restaurants will be able to operate at 50% indoor capacity, up from 25%, starting Monday, Governor Ron DeSantis said.The state started reopening last week, with DeSantis saying the Sunshine State had dodged the worst-case scenarios predicted by some analysts. He said Friday that ventilator use and Covid-19 patients in intensive-care units have both declined significantly since the start of Florida’s stay-at-home order.“The American people never signed up for a perpetual shelter in place,” DeSantis said.N.J. Virus Deaths Top 10,000 (1:15 p.m. NY)New Jersey deaths from the new coronavirus topped 10,000, days before the state takes steps toward reopening. The toll belies improvements in hospitalization and other data that have led Governor Phil Murphy to take some steps toward restarting the state’s economy. Total hospitalizations are about half of the peak, while patients on ventilators and in intensive care also have dropped.Air France-KLM Reverses, Offers Refunds (12:40 p.m. NY)Air France-KLM will offer refunds to customers whose flights were canceled by the pandemic, a policy reversal that could add pressure on the struggling carrier’s balance sheet. Travelers will get a cash reimbursement or a voucher for a future flight worth 15% more than the initial ticket value, according to a statement. The incentive is to encourage customers to opt for future flights.Through March 31, the value of tickets for flights that may be canceled and for which the airline could be liable for vouchers or refunds reached about 2 billion euros ($2.2 billion), according to the carrier.WHO Pushes Vaccine Access Plan (12:30 p.m. NY)The World Health Organization is pushing a proposal that aims to ensure broad access to Covid-19 treatments and vaccines while offering an appropriate reward to creators.Under the plan offered by Costa Rica, drug companies would voluntarily donate Covid-related intellectual property to a global pool. Countries would be free to decide how to mete out the rights.Countries would retain the right to allow low-cost generics of patented medicines. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus is urging countries and companies to support the proposal, which will be discussed Monday and Tuesday.Italy Has Fewest Cases in Four Days (12:05 p.m. NY)Italy registered the fewest new cases in four days, as the government considers letting citizens move freely starting on June 3 after more than two months of lockdown.Civil protection authorities reported 789 cases compared with 992 a day earlier, bringing the total to 223,885.

(11:40 a.m. NY)The U.S. Navy hospital ship Mercy has left Los Angeles, ending a seven-week deployment aimed at easing the burden on the region’s medical system, U.S. Northern Command said.
