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>
<li>Becton Dickinson shares fell 1.8% to close at $227.17 on Thursday.</li>
<li>IDEAYA Biosciences shares fell 3.4% to settle at $29.47 during the session.</li>
<li>AstraZeneca shares fell 0.4% to close at $65.04 on Thursday.</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.

Stocks Tumble, Nasdaq 100 Selloffs As Tech Giants Disappoint, Crypto Companies Plummet: What's Driving Markets Thursday?

Altria Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MO#NYSE">MO</a>) shares are <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" rel="noreferrer noopener">trading higher on Thursday.</a>

Smokeable products segment reported domestic cigarette shipment volume decreased&nbsp;8.6%, primarily due to the industry&#8217;s decline rate and retail share losses, partially offset by trade inventory movements and calendar differences. Marlboro shipment volume fell 7.5% in the quarter.
Also, Marlboro&nbsp;retail share of the total cigarette category was&nbsp;41.7%, down 0.6 share points versus the prior year and 0.3 share points sequentially.

Altria plans to&nbsp;establish an Accelerated Business Solutions organization within Altria Client Services. This organization will be responsible for driving efficiency.
&#8220;We expect the initial phases of the Initiative will deliver at least $600 million in cumulative cost savings over the next five years,&#8221; the company said.
The cumulative cost savings exclude the company&#8217;s estimated total pre-tax charges for initial phases of approximately $100 million to $125 million.
In the third quarter, the company repurchased a total of 13.5 million shares at an average price of $50.37, amounting to $680 million, while for the first nine months, the repurchases totaled 67.6 million shares at an average price of $45.68, totaling $3.1 billion.

Outlook: The company reaffirms its guidance for 2024, projecting adjusted diluted EPS to range from $5.07 to $5.15 (estimate: $5.10). This reflects a growth rate of 2.5% to 4% compared to the 2023 base of $4.95, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance">anticipated growth weighted toward the second half of the year.</a>

<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>Comparing Altria Group's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>

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.
