BTI Stock Recent News

My last article on BTI focused on its high yield and safety of its dividends. In this article, I want to provide a more holistic assessment of the stock, incorporating the key information in its 2024 H1 trading update. The analysis follows the framework developed by Ben Graham on selecting defensive stocks, a very fitting framework for a tobacco business.

Buy low, sell high, get paid to wait - our investing motto. Dividends matter for long-term wealth building and financial stability in retirement. Here are two high-yield top picks.

The stock market keeps hitting new all-time highs. For investors in growth and technology stocks, the future has never looked brighter.

British American Tobacco's management team is repurchasing shares. Given the stock's sharp declines in recent years, it's a potentially incredible value.

British American Tobacco is one of the largest cigarette companies in the world. The company has a huge yield and turnaround potential as it looks to expand beyond cigarettes.

The combination of stability and reliability that blue-chip stocks offer makes them one of the best ways to play in the current environment. With uncertainty over the economy still ruling the market, choosing blue-chip stocks to buy makes sense.

In June, I aggressively bought three of my top high yield blue-chip ideas, tripling my share count in some of these companies. With an average yield of 7%, growing 10% per year, being 19% undervalued, and having 32% upside potential in the next year, BTI, ENB, and BAM offer incredible short-and long-term opportunities. Enbridge's Line 5 concerns are way overblown, and its yield is at historical extremes that generate 13% long-term total return guidance from management.

The current interest rates levels enable more high yield opportunities. Yet, to achieve close to double digit yields, in most cases, investors have to take excessive risk. In this article I present two de-risked ~ 9% yielders, which I also own in my high yield seeking investment portfolio.

British American Tobacco PLC BTI stock is turning heads on Wall Street with a classic bullish signal approaching: the Golden Cross.

On a YTD basis, BTI has underperformed Altria and Philip Morris by double-digit total returns. Most of the reasons why BTI's share price has remained depressed are temporary. If we zoom into the details, we will understand that BTI is still set to deliver positive organic growth this year.
