Show Notes
Altrias shares surged over twelve percent in 2026, driven by its robust dividend yield of six point five percent. The tobacco giant, known for brands like Marlboro, has been raising its quarterly dividend for fifty-seven years, making it a cash cow for income seekers. Despite declining smoking rates, Altrias price hikes and forays into vapes and pouches have kept its dividend steady. However, its thirteen billion dollar Juul investment flopped. With deep pockets and share buybacks, Altria offers recession-proof cash flow and shareholder returns, making it a favorite among value hunters and retirees.
