Altria is increasing its share buybackprogram from the original $1 billion to $2.4 billion. This news flash made me quite happy, as I find buybacks to be much better than dividend payments. The dividend here is very nice and $MO stock has been around that $40 mark for the past year. I was buying their stock quite a bit last year, but the sector has faced a few problems lately and I haven't bought in for a while and will only buy in when the stock gets below $40.
Do you have $MOstock in your portfolio?
