To the best of our research, the January 2016 edition of the Cigar Brand Stock Market was the segment’s debut, featuring guests Jonathan David (Toasted Foot) and William Cooper (Cigar Coop). The segment took place in the second half of episode 54 on January 22, 2016, featuring buy, sell, and hold opinions on 12 companies/brands.

The Cigar Brand Stock Market is a segment on Cigar Dojo’s Smoke Night LIVE show, where we attempt to boil down sentiment on a variety of cigar brands/companies by asking a panel of cigar enthusiasts the hypothetical question: “Would you buy, hold, or sell stock in brand/company X?” We feel that the results tell an interesting narrative as to the perception of a company/brand’s current direction. When multiple segments of the show are lined up, the highs and lows of a given company/brand may offer even more revealing trends.
