Morgan Stanley lowered the firm’s price target on Altria Group (MO) to $53 from $54 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. Shares closed down about 2% following Altria’s slight Q4 EPS beat, soft 2025 guidance, and the unfavorable NJOY patent litigation ruling, the analyst noted. The firm cites continued elevated Smokable volume declines and a limited reduced-risk portfolio, exacerbated by the NJOY litigation loss, offset by Altria’s “solid financial flexibility,” for its Equal Weight ra

To give some idea of the sheer size of Johnson & Johnson, a glance at its reported sales figure is revealing. It's even more challenging to post any kind of meaningful growth.

Altria Is the New Dividend Leader in the S&P 500. Shares Yield Nearly 8%.

Altria became the index’s dividend leader on Thursday, after struggling Walgreens Boots Alliance suspended its payout that same day, citing an effort to improve its balance sheet. While Altria’s dividend payout ratio is high at about 80%—more than double that of the S&P 500—the company takes its dividend very seriously, having raised it in August for the 59th time in 55 years. Altria is a king among S&P dividend aristocrats.

US government could seek over $1 billion from J&J for cancer treatment costs

The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services may seek over $1 billion from Johnson & Johnson as reimbursement for federal health agencies' payments of medical costs for patients who allege that the company's baby powder and other talc products caused them to develop cancer, a government attorney said Friday. HHS and the Department of Veterans Affairs recently objected to J&J’s $10 billion proposed settlement of tens of thousands of ovarian cancer lawsuits, saying that resolving those cases in bankruptcy could impair the government's reimbursement rights. Bethany Theriot, a U.S. Justice Department attorney representing the two agencies, said that HHS alone could seek $1.1 billion under the Medicare Secondary Payer law, which allows federal health agencies to seek reimbursement from other parties that are primarily responsible for health care costs incurred by the government.
