Altira Group (MO)

Bad because I don't smoke and am not fond at all of cigarets. Also the stock price is towards the top of it's 5yr high. Good or bad? Good because it's growing bad because it could drop anytime? Cigarette sales have steadily declined and not all have picked up on the e-cig market. Lorillard (LO) bought BluEcig which I see all over the place being advertised.

It looks good because from what I know of the tobacco market they seem to own some key players. They have a good % dividend pay.

This stock has been mentioned a lot in this thread. What's to like about it? With cigarette sales continually dropping and the companies offsetting this by an increase in the cost per pack how can they sustain?
