76% Informative

British American Tobacco trades at a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 9 -- well below the S&P 500's average forward P/E multiple of 20 .

The tobacco industry is going through a rough patch, but...now could be a time to consider investing in it.

The last few years in particular have been dominated by the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution.

The S&P 500 is so heavily concentrated in such a small number of volatile technology stocks, the index is essentially driven by the AI trade.

With its current dividend yield of 7% , generous long-run gains, and attractive valuation, British American Tobacco stock is hard to pass up right now.
