--Altria Maintains Quarterly Dividend at $1.06 per Share, Payable July 10 to Holders of Record June 15

Yesterday, American tobacco giant Altria triggered a golden cross signal above the zero axis of the daily MACD, with a single-day trading volume of approximately $592 million, ranking among the top in trading activity within the defensive consumer goods sector. The confirmation of bullish signals indicates that short-term funds are steadily flowing into this high-dividend blue chip, accumulating momentum for a phase of upward trend. As the parent company of the Marlboro brand, Altria is known for its high dividends and stable cash flow, often becoming a "safe haven" for risk-averse funds during periods of increased market volatility. On the news front, the current macro environment is naturally favorable for defensive assets. The April PPI data surged 1.4% month-on-month, with a year-on-year increase of 6%, reaching a new high since 2022, as inflationary pressures continue to rise. Boston Federal Reserve President Collins clearly stated that interest rates should remain unchanged for "some time," and discussions about interest rate hikes are also heating up, with expectations for rate increases rising to 35%. Under the dual pressure of high inflation and high interest rate expectations, growth stocks are under significant pressure—Palantir fell 4.38%, and Shopify dropped 4.45%—while funds are accelerating their shift towards more certain consumer leaders and high-dividend varieties. The healthcare ETF (XLV) rose 0.59% yesterday, and the utility sector performed steadily overall, highlighting the relative advantages of defensive assets. From a technical perspective, Altria's golden cross signal above the zero axis of the MACD holds strong reference significance among high-dividend blue chips, as the technical trends of such stocks are typically more stable, with relatively less noise in the signals
