...general's office. "But I have no information that there is any talk yet about a global settlement." Bloomberg News, quoting sources involved in the negotiations, had reported that the companies were attempting to settle the suits for as much as $250 billion. But tobacco firms were encouraged to hang tough by a West Virginia ruling on Friday that struck down most of that state's suit. Tobacco also has lost some of its allure as growing numbers of socially-conscious investors insist that fund managers avoid the stocks.
