&nbsp;
Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration authorized the marketing of 20 ZYN nicotine pouch products through the <a href="https://www.fda.gov/tobacco-products/market-and-distribute-tobacco-product/premarket-tobacco-product-applications">premarket tobacco product application (PMTA)</a> pathway following an extensive scientific review. This is the first time the agency has authorized products commonly referred to as <a href="https://www.fda.gov/tobacco-products/market-and-distribute-tobacco-product/premarket-tobacco-product-applications">nicotine pouches</a>, which are small synthetic fiber pouches containing nicotine designed to be placed between a person's gum and lip. &nbsp;
The FDA determined that the specific products receiving marketing authorization met the <a href="https://www.fda.gov/tobacco-products/market-and-distribute-tobacco-product/premarket-tobacco-product-applications">public health standard</a> legally required by the 2009 Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act. This standard considers the risks and benefits of products to the population as a whole.&nbsp;
Among several key considerations, the agency's evaluation showed that, due to substantially lower amounts of harmful constituents than cigarettes and most smokeless tobacco products, such as moist snuff and snus, the authorized products pose lower risk of cancer and other serious health conditions than such products. The applicant also provided evidence from a study showing that a substantial proportion of adults who use cigarette and/or smokeless tobacco products completely switched to the newly authorized nicotine pouch products.

B of A Securities Upgrades Altria Group to Buy, Raises Price Target to $65

Altria Group's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MO#NYSE">MO</a>) short percent of float has risen 10.83% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 29.46 million shares sold short, which is 1.74% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.97 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Altria Group Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1733408111_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Altria Group has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Altria Group's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Altria Group's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 1.61%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Looking Into Altria Group's Recent Short Interest

The U.S. Supreme Court heard a challenge against the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Monday about past bans on flavored liquids for<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/vaping"> e-cigarettes and vapes.</a>
What Happened: Triton Distribution brought a case to the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/supreme-court"> U.S. Supreme Court</a>, challenging the law that allows the FDA to control the regulation of e-liquids and e-cigarettes.
The FDA previously denied Triton&#8217;s applications to sell flavored e-cigarettes. The concern is that they could appeal to children and teenagers, as reported by <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/12/02/supreme-court-vaping-firm-fda-00192164">Politico</a>.  
Cigarette flavors, except menthol, have been banned by the FDA since 2009.
A final ruling will not be made by the Supreme Court for months. Justices, though, don&#8217;t appear to sympathize with Triton's argument.
"Everybody basically knows that flavors are particularly dangerous in terms of kids starting the use of smoking products," Justice Elena Kagan said.
Triton has the potential to reapply with the FDA. A company attorney said the incoming Donald Trump administration could make things easier, given his past comments on wanting to <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2024/12/02/supreme-court-trump-flavored-vapes/76693085007/">save</a> vaping.
Some judges believed the FDA was not consistent on its approval process.
"Their argument is that the guidance were actually a moving target, that either they weren't clear, or you changed the guidance as time went on," Justice Clarence Thomas said.

Why It's Important: Under the existing 2009 law, the FDA only approves new tobacco products if they believe they will protect public health. This makes it harder to get new products approved, as the system favors those fighting to get current users of products to stop smoking or prevent new users from starting.
Past appeals courts have approved the FDA's decisions, as reported by <a href="https://www.npr.org/2024/12/02/nx-s1-5205471/fda-vaping-supreme-court">NPR</a>. The conservative Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the FDA's decision capabilities. It also threatened to allow all vaping products to hit the market, prompting the challenge with the Supreme Court.
With a final ruling likely in June, cigarette and vaping companies could be on the radar of investors.
Cigarette manufacturer Altria Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MO#NYSE">MO</a>) owns the NJOY menthol e-cigarette product that has flavored vapes approved by the FDA. Altria was previously an investor in Juul, a leader in the e-cigarette sector. It eventually exchanged its stake for some intellectual property.
Maintaining the FDA's current rules would keep Altria as one of the only companies that can sell approved flavored e-cigarettes. A different decision could see Altria quickly face increased competition.
British American Tobacco (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTI#NYSE">BTI</a>) has watched previous attempts to have some vaping products approved denied by the FDA.
Turning Point Brands (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TPI#NYSE">TPI</a>), a past challenger to the FDA's approval process, could benefit if the Supreme Court puts new rules in place.

Supreme Court Hears Case Against FDA Ban On Flavored Vapes: Here Are The Stocks To Watch

WIIM

Shares of housing and building-related stocks are trading lower. Building permits and new home sales fell in October.

U.S. Supreme Court Declines To Decide Whether Certain Federally Mandated Health Warnings On Cigarette Packs Violate Tobacco Companies' Free Speech Protections

On CNBC's &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mad-money-lightning-round">Mad Money Lightning Round</a>,&#8221; Jim Cramer said Altria Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MO#NYSE">MO</a>) is &#8220;undervalued,&#8221; but he is not going to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MO/guidance">recommend tobacco stocks</a>.
On Oct. 31, the company reported third-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $1.38. It beat the street view of $1.35. Quarterly sales of $5.334 billion (+1.3%) beat the analyst consensus estimate of $5.326 billion.
Cramer recommended selling Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>).
Super Micro Computer filed a FormNT 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission, indicating that it's unable to file its 2025 fiscal-year first-quarter earnings on time.
When asked about The Boeing Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), he said, &#8220;I prefer not to be in a stock that is going to lose a lot of money for a long time.&#8221;
According to Reuters, the company reportedly begins issuing layoff notices to employees affected by a major restructuring plan. The plan, which aims to reduce Boeing's global workforce by 17,000 jobs—approximately 10% of its total—comes as the heavily indebted aerospace <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/41950702/boeing-reportedly-plans-furloughs-whats-going-on">giant seeks to cut costs</a>.
Becton, Dickinson and Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDX#NYSE">BDX</a>) has &#8220;broken down severely,&#8221; Cramer said. &#8220;If Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is going to be the head of HHS, then it's going to hurt a lot of vaccines, it could hurt a lot of their business.&#8221;
On Nov. 7, the company posted better-than-expected results for its fourth quarter.
&#8220;They have a lot of phase one stuff, and phase one is might early. Too early for me to bet on,&#8221; Cramer said when asked about IDEAYA Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IDYA#NASDAQ">IDYA</a>).
On Nov. 4, IDEAYA Biosciences reported a quarterly loss of 60 cents per share, compared to consensus estimates of a loss of 64 cents per share.
&#8220;I just don't know what is wrong,&#8221; Cramer said about AstraZeneca PLC (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NASDAQ">AZN</a>). &#8220;My god is this thing going lower.&#8221;
On Nov. 12, AstraZeneca reported third-quarter sales of $13.57 billion, up 18% year over year (+21% at constant currency), beating the consensus of $13.09 billion.
Price Action:
<ul>
<li>Altria shares rose 0.3% to settle at $55.39 on Thursday.</li>
<li>Super Micro Computer shares dipped 11.4% to close at $18.01.</li>
<li>Boeing shares fell 1.3% to settle at $138.14 during the session.</li>

Risk aversion swept across markets on Thursday as investor disappointment over third-quarter tech earnings triggered the steepest drop in major U.S. indices <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">in nearly two months.</a>
Microsoft Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>) plummeted over 5% by midday trading in New York, on track for its worst session in two years. Although the company surpassed earnings estimates, it forecasted slower growth in its Azure cloud business, dampening future revenue expectations.
Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) also declined by over 4% despite a strong quarterly performance, as the social media giant projected &#8220;significant&#8221; capital expenditure growth next year, particularly for AI infrastructure.
The elite &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; tech group shed nearly $500 billion in market capitalization within a single day after reaching a record high of $16.8 trillion. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) are set to report earnings after the market close.
In economic news, inflation sent mixed signals for September. The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index slowed as expected to 2.1% annually, while the Fed's preferred inflation measure, the core PCE price index, remained at 2.7% year over year, slightly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/10/41658542/fed-interest-rate-cuts-expected-but-economists-warn-of-bumpy-course-in-this-last-">above the expected 2.6%.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 dropped 1.4%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 slid 2.2%, both tracking their worst session since Sept. 6. The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) surged 12%.
Risk aversion also weighed on commodities, with gold prices dropping 1.7%, marking their worst day since July, and silver plunging 3% after a 2% decline on Wednesday. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) slid 2.4%, and crypto-related stocks suffered significant losses. Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) tumbled over 10% on disappointing earnings, eyeing its worst day since May.
