Chart of the Day: Cigars, Cigarettes, E-Cigs

Posted on June 5, 2019 by | Leave a comment

Below is a chart of the production of cigars and cigarettes from 1900-1923.

We have included the market share comparison of Juul, the e-cigarette that Altria (MO) recently increased their stake in, and other tobacco related products from 2014 to 2017 in a research report generated by Bonnie Herzog, senior analyst at Wells Fargo Securities.

image

Are cigarettes going the way of the cigar?  Maybe. Will e-cigarettes replace cigarettes? Possibly.

As far as we’re concerned, all articles on the topic of cigarettes and e-cigs should mirror the 1924 Barron’s article title, “Can the Cigarette Come Back?: A Great Industry in Process of E-volution.”
