Is Philip Morris or Altria the Better Value Stock?

Instead, investors on balance have been circling back to companies with lengthy operating histories, solid free cash flow, and proven business models. Tobacco giants Altria (NYSE: MO) and Philip Morris International (NYSE: PM) are prime examples of this evolving value tilt.
