British American Tobacco: The Non Combustible Shift Still Isn't Sparking
Published: February 19, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive
I downgraded my rating for British American Tobacco from a strong buy to a hold due to the slower than expected shift from combustibles to non-combustibles products. Combustibles still account for 80% of BAT's revenue, and I foresee a significant decline in volumes over the next decade, putting the current high dividend yield at risk. An 8% yield keeps investors in, but 10 year (dividend adjusted) returns underperform the S&P500 and peers like Philip Morris and Japan Tobacco.

Triple Crown Triumph: Three 6% Yielding Dividend Aristocrats For Turbulent Trade Times
Published: February 12, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive
Market timing is ineffective. A diversified, long-term investment strategy with asset allocation is crucial for consistent returns and peace of mind.
