Nautier Nice, CVS, because this is where the money is.

Hi, my son's health care analyst Michael Douglas here with our health care

severe Todd Campbell in from New Hampshire.

Todd, how you doing today?

I'm doing really well, doing well.

All right, fantastic.

So every year, Consumer Reports puts out a naughty or nice list and well, we had a health company on on it which isn't always the case so

it's kind of fun we get to see one. CVS perhaps not surprisingly on the nice

list the naughty list usually includes well you know folks that maybe

companies that maybe folks don't like so much. CVS has kind of been on a halo effect

lately and of course the big news with CVS is this smoking cessation, you know, where they basically cut

out tobacco.

Todd, do a quick take.

Yeah, this was a big decision by them and it was a risk. I they do about 2 billion a year in sales from

tobacco products so you know removing tobacco products from the front of the

store I mean that's got a lot of investors

wondering hey what the heck are you doing? I mean how are you going to make up for

those sales? Well and particularly you know when you when you consider that

you know that to being in tobacco sales I mean if

someone is someone's not just buying a pack of cigarettes at a pharmacy right

they're buying a pack of cigarettes a people magazine you know a stick of gum

and I don't know a a candy bar, right?
