Please click here to read my article about this on Seeking Alpha Altria and Lorillard are two top picks
In summary, I feel that the merger between Reynolds and Lorillard will provide shareholders of Lorillard with an excellent value at current prices. The discount implied by the market currently offers a great chance for a high return on investment. With Altria, you have a steady dividend payer who has the ability to continue to raise dividends year in and year out. Please note, I am long both stocks.
