<h3>How Does Applied Industrial Techs P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Applied Industrial Techs has a better P/E ratio of 23.22 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 21.21 of the Trading Companies &amp; Distributors industry. Ideally, one might believe that Applied Industrial Techs Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743631217_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Applied Industrial Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIT#NYSE">AIT</a>): The industrial products distributor saw strong interest from readers during the week. KeyBanc recently maintained an Overweight rating on the stock while lowering the price target from $325 to $275. Applied Industrial will likely report third-quarter financial results in late April. The company missed earnings per share estimates in the second quarter but has beaten analyst estimates in nine of the last 10 quarters. The company also missed revenue estimates in the second quarter but has beaten analyst estimates in seven of the last 10 quarters. Applied Industrial <a href="https://ir.applied.com/news/news-details/2025/Applied-Industrial-Technologies-Reports-Fiscal-2025-Second-Quarter-Results/default.aspx">raised </a>full-year guidance after the second quarter thanks to its strong quarter and the Hydradyne acquisition. The stock will be one to watch ahead of the next earnings report.
Applied Industrial stock was down for the week, as seen on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0328">Benzinga Pro chart </a>below. The stock is up 14% over the last year.

Wheaton Precious Metals Corp (NYES: WPM): Mining stocks like Wheaton Precious Metals saw increased interest from readers with gold at record prices and President Donald Trump encouraging more mining. The stock trades near all-time highs with a recent strong fourth quarter showing the company beating earnings per share for the fourth time in five quarters. The company missed revenue estimates in the fourth quarter, which was the third straight quarter of missing analyst estimates. Wheaton reported record revenue, adjusted net earnings and operating cash flow in 2024. The company has 18 operating mines and 28 development projects. A five-year outlook from the company calls for annual production to increase by 40% to 870,000 gold equivalent ounces. With gold prices at all-time highs, the stock could be one in the sector that investors keep an eye on, given the record 2024 and five-year growth outlook.

Deere &amp; Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DE#NYSE">DE</a>): One of the larger stocks to appear on the Stock Whisper Index is agricultural equipment company Deere &amp; Company. Readers were drawn to the company this week with minimal news. The industrial sector continues to see pressure due to tariff threats and concerns that there will be declines in investment and large spending on equipment. Deere &amp; Company's next earnings results will come around May. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in 10 straight quarters and beaten revenue estimates in more than 10 straight quarters. In February, the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43692928/deeres-q1-earnings-beat-forecasts-yet-sales-and-profits-slide-amid-declining-equipment-demand">first-quarter results </a>beat estimates, but several segments saw double-digit declines on a year-over-year basis. Guidance for the full year shows some recovery in the company's main operating segments.
Deere &amp; Company&#8217;s stock was down on the week, but shares are up 13% over the last year. The stock is one to watch if industrials show a turnaround or strength going forward.

$100 Invested In Applied Industrial Techs 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

<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?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">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 Applied Industrial Techs's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. 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.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Applied Industrial Techs's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.27%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

What Does the Market Think About Applied Industrial Techs?

Amid an especially volatile <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/03/44176918/trump-delays-mexico-tariffs-for-a-month-economic-uncertainty-persits">start to 2025</a>, small-cap stocks have struggled. Are they now a buy at depressed valuations?
Russell 2000: The Russell 2000, as reflected by the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>), has dropped nearly 15% since December 2024. This constitutes a market correction.
The Trump Administration has embraced domestic and foreign policies that Former Treasury Secretary&nbsp;Larry Summers&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43649860/larry-summers-and-peter-schiff-warn-of-rising-inflation-risks-as-markets-slash-fed-rate-cut-expectations-most-sensitive-moment">labels as inflationary</a>. Higher prices could lead to higher interest rates, which disproportionately affect smaller companies with floating-rate debt.
The Russell index <a href="https://research.ftserussell.com/Analytics/FactSheets/Home/DownloadSingleIssue?issueName=US2000USD&amp;isManual=True">contains</a> 2,000 companies with an average market cap of around $1 billion. Higher-weighted components are likely to have outperformed the rest of the index and are not necessarily representative of the entire Russell 2000. Still, they provide a glimpse into how investors are valuing small-cap companies.
Here&#8217;s how the top stocks in the IWM have performed since the ETF&#8217;s correction began in December 2024:

<h3>How Does Applied Industrial Techs P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large.

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.
