$MO (+0,62 %)

Altria is one of the largest tobacco companies in the world - and is emblematic of an industry whose business model is based on addiction, disease and environmental destruction.

Investing in companies like Altria supports a business model based on addiction, disease and environmental destruction. It is high time that ethical criteria were given more weight in the financial world. Capital should not flow where it causes harm - but where it shapes the future.

Hello, I am currently considering changing my portfolio and switching to a core-satellite strategy.

My main part should be the $SPPW (+0,09 %) with approx. 45%. After that, dividend stocks will follow: $NOVO B (+0,88 %) with 10%, $O (+0,22 %) with 5%, $MO (+0,62 %) with 5%, $MAIN (+0,59 %) 5% and $PG (-1,18 %) at 10%.

The growth values should consist of $NVDA (+2,44 %) , $AAPL (-2,5 %) , $2330 and $ASML (-0,96 %) with 5% each.

Would you sign this or would you change something?

Table with values for an easier overview:

MSCI World SPDR - 45%

Novo Nordisk - 10%

Realty Income - 5%

Altria - 5%

Main Street Capital - 5%

Procter & Gamble - 10%

Nvidia - 5%

Apple - 5%

TSMC - 5%

ASML - 5%

Changes I have made so far:

Reduce Novo nordisk and procter & gamble to 5% r and add 5% gold and btc each.

These shares reached a new 52-week high today:

Johnson & Johnson $JNJ (-0,74 %)

Unity $U (-5,62 %)

Reddit $RDDT (-0,01 %)

Celsius $CELH

Altria $MO (+0,62 %)

Do you hold any of the shares?

Hello lovelies!

I've been reading here for a long time now and have given it a lot of thought!

I started "investing" in mid-November (I just bought something or listened to someone who posted something somewhere). So by my standards, I've paid quite a bit of learning money.

Then I started paying into individual shares and ETFs with savings plans, which was only partially thought through.

Now I've got rid of pretty much everything and have drawn up a very detailed plan with goals, milestones and when to pay in what.

Individual items, such as $MO (+0,62 %) , $O (+0,22 %) and $ATO (+0,74 %) I still have in my portfolio, but I will part with them at a time that suits me.

I am now 21 years old and will start studying dual tax law in September.

This will earn me some money and I still have a part-time job.

My plan is to invest €500 a month in a savings plan.

iShares Core MSCI World (Acc)$IWDA (+0,19 %)

170€

Nasdaq 100 Covered Call (Dist)$QYLE (+0,31 %)

85 €

S&P Global Dividend Aristocrats (Dist)$ZPRG (-0,45 %)

80 €

Vanguard FTSE All-World High Div (Dist)$VHYL (-0,73 %)

65 €

iShares Nasdaq 100 (Acc)$CSNDX (-0,04 %)

50 €

FTSE Emerging Markets (Dist)$VFEM (+0,69 %)

50 €

As my salary will increase over the course of my studies and afterwards, I would like to increase my monthly savings installment by €50 each year. In addition, there will be an extra €2000 minimum per year and larger payments in individual years, such as my savings account in 2037, which will then be finished.

I also considered ETFs. I now have a mixture of distributing and accumulating. I am well aware that it would be better to only save in accumulating ETFs. However, I think it's more motivating and easier for me to receive the dividends and to realize that something is happening and I'm getting something. I will reinvest the dividends. I just don't know exactly how yet.

I'm currently considering whether I want to invest some of it or additionally in $BTC (+0,29 %) preferably with a savings plan (or maybe another platform where it's really Bitcoin).

If I do everything exactly as planned and achieve an average annual return of 7%, I will theoretically be able to live with 45/50 of it. According to my plan now, I would like to start shifting to purely distributing at 40/45 and save a little more depending on my life situation.

This would cap my pension and I would have something I could pass on to my children to give them some security.

You never know what life will bring. Maybe I'll manage to save more sooner or have setbacks and not make it according to plan, but I've made the plan with savings rates... rather pessimistic and hope that I can exceed my annual goals.

I look forward to hearing what you think about this.

Earnings $MO (+0,62 %)

The tobacco giant Altria $MO (+0,62 %) beat Wall Street estimates for sales and profits in the second quarter on Wednesday. The reason for this was robust demand for its on! nicotine pouches.

The Richmond, Virginia-based company is increasingly relying on its portfolio of smokeless alternatives, such as nicotine pouches, to offset the decline in sales caused by the trend among many consumers away from traditional cigarettes and chewing tobacco.

Although sales of Altria's e-cigarette brand NJOY were halted earlier this year due to a patent dispute, strong growth in the on! segment compensated for the decline in sales.

In April, the company announced that NJOY would not be returning to the market this year. As a result, Altria had to recognize a significant impairment loss for its e-cigarette division.

The widespread sale of unregulated disposable e-cigarettes, mostly from China, has negatively impacted both the e-cigarette and traditional tobacco businesses in the US. However, Altria anticipates only limited benefits from increased confiscation of such products.

The company's quarterly revenue, including excise taxes, rose 0.2 percent year-over-year to $5.29 billion. Analysts on average had expected a 1.8 percent decline to 5.18 billion dollars, according to LSEG data.

Adjusted earnings per share in the second quarter amounted to 1.44 US dollars, exceeding expectations of 1.39 dollars.

The shipment volume of on! nicotine pouches rose by 26.5 percent, following an increase of 13.7 percent in the previous year.

The shares of competitor Philip Morris International fell last week after shipments of its ZYN nicotine pouches - by far the leading brand of pouches in the USA - fell short of expectations.

Shipments of Altria's smokable tobacco products fell 10.2 percent in the second quarter, compared with a 13 percent decline in the year-ago period.

During the quarter, the company recognized a non-cash, pre-tax impairment charge of $354 million related to an impairment of the Skoal brand (smokeless tobacco). Altria did not provide a reason for the impairment.

For the full year, Altria expects adjusted earnings per share between 5.35 and 5.45 US dollars. The previous forecast was 5.30 to 5.45 dollars.

An important earnings week is coming up. Companies like $META (-1,45 %)
$MSFT (+0 %)
$MO (+0,62 %) will be releasing quarterly earnings.

I closed stock position completely again but I reinvested the money again
