<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.

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.

<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

Rep. Robert Bresnahan Has Bought Up to $105K Worth Of Alibaba Gr Hldgs Stock: Here's What You Should Know

Tariffs, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/federal-reserve">federal spending cuts</a> and CoWoS (Chip-on-Wafer-on-Substrate) slowdowns are shaking up the hardware and networking sector. JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee weighs in on which stocks are best equipped to weather the storm.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tariffs: Who's Feeling The Heat?</h2>
Companies loaded with software-driven hardware are dodging the worst of the tariff blow, while commoditized IT hardware players are absorbing rising costs. Networking leaders like Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>) and Arista Networks Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANET#NYSE">ANET</a>) have an edge, given their ability to pass costs down the chain.

Meanwhile, PC and server makers face tighter margins, with limited room to hike prices without losing customers.
Cisco's CFO has already factored in the tariff impact, while Arista's team says they've been planning for China risks ahead of time. The wildcard? 
Storage and networking equipment appear largely insulated, but competitive server pricing could make cost pass-throughs a challenge.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Federal Spending Cuts: Who's At Risk?</h2>
A slowdown in government IT budgets might hit device makers harder than infrastructure players. Cisco, with more than 5% of revenue tied to federal spending, could see near-term pressure, but JPMorgan suggests long-term benefits from federal tech modernization. 
Channel partners like CDW (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDW#NASDAQ">CDW</a>) also have notable exposure but are downplaying risks for now.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">CoWoS Cuts: Nvidia's Supply Chain Feels The Squeeze</h2>
Recent CoWoS order cuts by Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) are reshuffling supplier valuations. The biggest impact? 
Nvidia-linked players like Fabrinet (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FN#NYSE">FN</a>), Amphenol Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APH#NYSE">APH</a>) and Coherent Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COHR#NYSE">COHR</a>) could face multiple compression, even if revenue estimates remain intact.
Cisco and Arista look relatively shielded from tariff pain, Nvidia's supply chain faces valuation headwinds and federal spending concerns might be a short-term roadblock for key players.
With hardware margins under pressure, JPMorgan's take is clear: software-rich and infrastructure-driven companies have the best shot at staying ahead.

Shares of companies within the broader tech sector are trading lower in sympathy with Nvidia, which reversed amid a possible selloff after reporting its Q4 financial results.

Live On CNBC, Rob Sechan Announces Bought Arista Networks

Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) just delivered another knockout quarter, smashing expectations as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">AI infrastructure demand</a> remains red-hot. 
With its Blackwell chips already raking in $11 billion, compute players like Dell Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>), Super Micro Computer Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) and Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>) are set to benefit.
But for networking giants like Arista Networks Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANET#NYSE">ANET</a>) and Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>), the competition is only getting fiercer.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Blackwell Powers Nvidia's Blowout Quarter</h2>
JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee sees Nvidia's latest results as a bullish signal for compute and optical stocks. Data center revenue soared 93% year-over-year to $35.6 billion, with compute revenue alone skyrocketing 116%. 
Blackwell's meteoric rise makes it Nvidia's fastest-ramping product ever, with hyperscalers like Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Oracle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) driving adoption.
On top of that, Nvidia is already looking ahead to Blackwell Ultra, expected in the second half of the year, said Chatterjee. With AI model inferencing demand accelerating, particularly for OpenAI's GPT-4o, DeepSeek-R1, and Grok 3, the need for more compute is only growing.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Networking Stumbles, But Recovery Is In Sight</h2>
Not everything was flawless &#8211; networking revenue dropped 9% as Nvidia transitions from NVLink 8 with InfiniBand to NVLink 72 with Spectrum-X, noted Chatterjee. However, the company expects networking to return to sequential growth next quarter, thanks to deployments at major AI factories. 
According to Chatterjee, Microsoft, Oracle, and CoreWeave are among those fueling Spectrum-X adoption, while Nvidia's recent Cisco partnership could help expand its enterprise reach.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Pressure Mounts On Arista &amp; Cisco</h2>
With Nvidia increasingly controlling the AI stack, Arista and Cisco must fight to maintain market share. AI networking demand is surging, but Chatterjee notes that Nvidia's Spectrum-X is winning customers. 
The next few quarters could be make-or-break for traditional networking giants.

Check Out What Whales Are Doing With ANET

PLTR

SOUN

Shares of AI and tech stocks are trading higher ahead of Nvidia's earnings. The sector may also be rising following Supermicro's quarterly report filing.

Our purpose here at Under the Radar is to bring companies, ideas, and strategies to your attention before Wall Street uncovers them.
We do not want to find ourselves in a situation like Yogi Berra once described a New York hangout—a place that no one goes to anymore because it is too crowded. We aim to bring you companies that are undervalued and selling for a fraction of their intrinsic worth as operating businesses, long before the thundering herd begins piling into the shares.
Occasionally, we identify a business that Wall Street is ignoring, which is trading for less than the value of its assets but has the financial strength to survive until conditions improve or until an acquisition occurs. Fast-growing companies that Wall Street has not yet discovered are another valuable source of potentially profitable ideas.
Sometimes, we introduce the names of hedge fund managers who work outside the spotlight yet consistently generate market-beating returns. Cloning their portfolios, away from the bright lights of Wall Street, can be profitable.
You have probably also noticed that I am country-agnostic. For the most part, I do not care where a business is located. If research shows that it has the potential for substantial profits, I want to share it with you.
My favorite thing to share with readers is a strategy that Wall Street is not discussing but has the potential to deliver significant winners. Those who have followed me for any length of time know that I am constantly testing ideas and strategies to determine what works and what does not.
Most ideas, no matter how exciting they may initially seem, fail to deliver real value. However, when we identify a strategy that empirical testing demonstrates can consistently deliver substantial winners, I cannot wait to share it with you. More often than not, the best ideas are the simplest, and that is the case with the strategy I am going to introduce today.
We will adhere to fundamental principles and invest in stocks with rapidly growing sales and strong financials. We are going to disregard earnings per share growth, analyst rankings and predictions, and valuation metrics. Instead, we will focus on one key question: Are these companies consistently selling more of their products and services?
We want to see high sales growth over one-, three-, and five-year periods. We are not interested in short-lived trends or companies that experience temporary spikes in demand, such as those selling fad products.
We also want companies that maintain strong balance sheets with ample liquidity. Their financial statements should show continued improvement. We avoid companies that are persistently borrowing more money or issuing stock to fund their operations.
To simplify our search, we screen for companies with high revenue growth rates and Piotroski F-Scores of seven or higher. This straightforward formula delivers returns that consistently outperform the market and helps uncover major winners before they begin to soar.
Over the past decade, this approach has uncovered significant winners, including off-the-radar stocks like Mr. Cooper (Ticker: COOP), Fortinet (Ticker: FTNT), and Arista Networks (Ticker: ANET) early in their meteoric rise. It has also maintained positions in well-established giants such as NVIDIA (Ticker: NVDA), Amazon (Ticker: AMZN), and Meta (Ticker: META).
When I ran the screen today, I identified several off-the-radar stocks with strong fundamentals and consistently high revenue growth. Investors who act before Wall Street takes notice could see substantial gains in the coming years.
One standout is Doximity, Inc. (Ticker: DOCS), a leading digital platform for U.S. medical professionals that provides tools for collaboration, medical news updates, career management, and virtual patient visits. Founded in 2010, Doximity has expanded to serve over 80 percent of U.S. physicians, along with a significant number of nurse practitioners and physician assistants.
It functions as a professional network, a telehealth provider, and a marketing platform for pharmaceutical and hospital systems. With more than 80 percent of U.S. doctors registered on the platform, Doximity has become an indispensable digital tool in the medical industry. The company&#8217;s rapid growth is beginning to attract Wall Street&#8217;s attention, and investors are starting to accumulate shares.
This simple strategy also uncovered another off-the-radar stock poised to benefit from the massive growth in semiconductors over the next decade.
While most investors are focused on major semiconductor names such as TSMC, ASML, and NVIDIA, a lesser-known Japanese company is playing a crucial role in the industry&#8217;s expansion. Lasertec Corporation (Ticker: LSRCY) dominates the high-precision inspection and measurement market for semiconductor manufacturers.
Based in Yokohama, Lasertec specializes in tools that inspect photomasks and wafers, particularly for cutting-edge extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography—the same technology that enables the production of the most advanced chips in the world. If a chip is destined for an artificial intelligence server, a high-performance GPU, or an advanced smartphone, there is a high probability that Lasertec's inspection systems ensured its quality.
Business is thriving. In the fiscal year ending June 2024, Lasertec reported revenue of ¥213.5 billion, representing a remarkable 39.7 percent year-over-year increase. Net income surged to ¥59.08 billion, reflecting a 27.97 percent rise. Growth of this magnitude is difficult to overlook, especially in a market where artificial intelligence and high-performance computing continue to drive demand for cutting-edge chips.
Despite its essential role, Lasertec remains under the radar. Unlike (Ticke: TSMC) which manufactures chips, or (Ticker: ASML) which builds lithography machines, Lasertec provides the crucial inspection technology that ensures semiconductor production remains efficient and precise. Its niche is indispensable, and its financial performance confirms its strength.
Lasertec operates with a fabless model, focusing on research and development while outsourcing production. This strategy keeps costs low and fosters innovation, allowing the company to remain agile in an industry where technological advancements occur at a rapid pace.
With subsidiaries across the United States, China, South Korea, Taiwan, and Europe, Lasertec ensures its global clients receive the necessary support. Its inspection technology is a vital component of next-generation semiconductor manufacturing, making it a business worth watching.
