Price Target

Seaport Global Upgrades D.R. Horton to Buy, Announces $164 Price Target

D.R. Horton's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHI#NYSE">DHI</a>) short percent of float has risen 3.96% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 7.22 million shares sold short, which is 2.89% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.95 days to cover their short positions on average.
<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.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1740578412_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for D.R. Horton has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing D.R. Horton'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>, D.R. Horton's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.35%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Shares of homebuilder stocks are trading lower after Toll Brothers reported worse-than-expected Q1 financial results.

Trump&#8217;s plans to place tariffs on Canada has come as a surprise, and many businesses are scrambling to deal with the potential fallout.
President Trump gave little indication that Canadian tariffs were on the table during his campaign, but now our northerly neighbors face tariffs of as much as 25% on all goods crossing into the United States.
Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reached a deal to delay the tariffs until March, but the threat of increased costs is already causing some companies to take action &#8211; and Canadian consumers to boycott US products.
Here are the five companies that will suffer the most from this surprise trade war.
During the company's recent earnings conference call, Ford CEO Jim Farley said that prolonged tariffs on Canada and Mexico would have a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43524700/ford-ceo-jim-farley-says-trumps-proposed-tariffs-on-mexico-canada-will-be-manageable-in-near-term-but-will-have-huge-impact-if-protracted">significant impact</a> on the US auto industry. But it's not just the auto industry that's come to rely on trading partners. Energy, agriculture, and manufacturing are other sectors that will be affected by increased costs from Canadian goods.
Today, we'll examine five stocks that heavily rely on Canadian imports. Although these companies are in different industries, all would face pressure if the maximum 25% tariff is enacted.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Molson Coors Beverage Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAP#NYSE">TAP</a>)</h2>
Molson Coors could be hit twice by tariffs since the company imports not only Canadian beers to the United States but also aluminum for cans of domestically produced beverages. Molson is responsible for several popular beers like Molson Canadian and Molson Dry. The company would also be at risk of retaliatory tariffs as Coors Light, Miller Genuine Draft, and Blue Moon are also popular beverages imported to Canada from the United States.
The tariff threat comes at an inopportune time for Molson Coors, as the company reported a top and bottom line beat on its February 13 earnings report but projects <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43688209/molson-coors-sees-fy25-net-sales-low-single-digit-increase-versus-2024-on-a-constant-currency-basis">low single-digit sales growth</a> over the full 2025 year.

TAP shares have been in a tailspin since Thanksgiving, dropping from $62 to $53 before the recent earnings jump. Despite the quality report, this could be an excellent spot to unload the stock before the Trump administration hits Canada with forceful tariffs. Based on Benzinga's market search, TAP shares are covered by 27 different analysts with an average rating of Hold and a consensus price target of $62.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>)</h2>
The auto industry is at the highest risk of pain from tariffs, and Stellantis could face pressure from several angles. The company was formed when Chrysler merged with the French manufacturer PCA Group and currently makes Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, and Jeep vehicles in North America. Unfortunately, Stellantis production occurs in countries where the Trump administration has threatened harsh tariffs, namely Canada, Mexico, and the European Union.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="317" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165330/STE-1-1024x317.png" alt="" class="wp-image-783943" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165330/STE-1-1024x317.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165330/STE-1-300x93.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165330/STE-1-768x238.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165330/STE-1.png 1244w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Stellantis currently has two manufacturing plants in Canada, located in Toronto and Windsor. The Toronto plant produces engine and transmission parts and aluminum die castings, while the Windsor plant manufactures Chrysler Pacifica and Dodge Charger vehicles (yes, the Charger is made in Canada, not the United States). STLA shares have plummeted since making an early 2024 high, and the stock is trading firmly below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages. And to pile on the bearish sentiment, Barclays and RBC Capital both downgraded the stock to Neutral last October.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Advance Auto Parts Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAP#NYSE">AAP</a>)</h2>
The auto industry is in crisis mode following the tariff announcements, but most of the focus has been on car manufacturers like Stellantis, Ford, and General Motors. However, the after-market car part business is another central industry area, and many DIY car projects will become more expensive if 25% tariffs on Canada take effect.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="317" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165351/AAP-1024x317.png" alt="" class="wp-image-783944" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165351/AAP-1024x317.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165351/AAP-300x93.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165351/AAP-768x238.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165351/AAP.png 1244w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
The three major DIY auto parts stores in the United States are AutoZone, O'Reilly Automotive, and Advance Auto Parts. Right now, AAP looks to be in the worst shape. The company saw its revenue growth decline by 3% over the last 12 months, while AZO and ORLY each increased revenue year over year. AAP also has the slowest inventory turnover, the smallest free cash flow pile, and the highest price-to-earnings ratio of the three primary auto parts dealers. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and 50-day and 200-day moving averages also continue sending bearish signals, so avoid AAP shares until the tariff threat fades.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">D.R. Horton Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHI#NYSE">DHI</a>)</h2>
D.R. Horton is the biggest homebuilder in the United States, and the firm has been sounding some alarms about housing costs in the face of tariffs and declining workforce participation. Lumber imports from Canada are key to homebuilders like DHI, and house buyers are already stretched thin by high prices and 7% mortgage rates. It is unlikely homebuilders have much more room to pass costs onto consumers, which could further exacerbate a tepid US housing market.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="319" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165357/DR-1024x319.png" alt="" class="wp-image-783945" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165357/DR-1024x319.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165357/DR-300x93.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165357/DR-768x239.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165357/DR.png 1252w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
DHI stock has dropped from $156 to $129 in the span of just a few weeks, thanks to pressure on housing inputs like lumber, steel, and aluminum. Analysts are also becoming more bearish on homebuilders as Bank of America <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43246599/bofa-downgrades-dr-horton-and-smith-douglas-citing-cost-pressures-and-weak-roe-outlook">downgraded the stock</a> immediately following inauguration day, citing rising costs and weak return on equity. DHI posted a bad earnings and revenue miss in Q3 2024 but rebounded with a top and bottom line beat in Q4. This earnings boost could provide an exit ramp for investors who aren't optimistic about housing in 2025.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Enbridge Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENB#NYSE">ENB</a>)</h2>
Energy is another sector at the forefront of tariff troubles, and Enbridge Inc. is one of the pipeline providers in the crosshairs. Enbridge is a major exporter of crude oil, natural gas, and renewables to the United States through its network of pipelines, distribution systems, and storage facilities. However, if the Trump administration is serious about cutting down on Canadian energy imports, ENB shares could also tumble from their current levels.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="319" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165419/ENB-1024x319.png" alt="" class="wp-image-783946" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165419/ENB-1024x319.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165419/ENB-300x93.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165419/ENB-768x239.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/14165419/ENB.png 1252w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
From a technical perspective, the RSI could hint at ENB stock's next move. Following the early February drawdown, the share price quickly rebounded to mid-January levels, but a divergence emerged as the RSI made a strong pivot downward after nearing 70, which is the traditional signal for an overbought stock. With technical and fundamental headwinds in play, ENB shares could struggle to maintain their momentum in 2025.

Shares of companies within the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading lower possibly due to worse-than-expected Michigan consumer sentiment for February. The sector may be weighed down following weak guidance from e.l.f Beauty and Amazon.

Shares of homebuilders and construction companies are trading lower as investors assess U.S. tariff concerns which may harm the industry.

10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

D.R. Horton's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHI#NYSE">DHI</a>) short percent of float has risen 7.75% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 6.96 million shares sold short, which is 2.78% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.17 days to cover their short positions on average.
<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/">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.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1738086318_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for D.R. Horton has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing D.R. Horton'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://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, D.R. Horton's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.35%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

D.R. Horton Unusual Options Activity For January 28

Shares of housing stocks including NVR Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVR#NYSE">NVR</a>) and D.R. Horton Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHI#NYSE">DHI</a>) traded higher on Monday, likely driven by a better-than-expected report on U.S. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-real-estate-stocks-right-now">new home sales for December. </a>
What To Know: According to Reuters, the U.S. Commerce Department reported new home sales increased 3.6% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 698,000 units in December, exceeding economists&#8217; expectations of 675,000 units. This marked a 6.7% year-over-year increase and contributed to a total of 683,000 new homes sold in 2024, a 2.5% gain from 2023. The median new home price rose 2.1% from the prior year to $427,000, although rising inventory appears to be tempering price growth.
This data potentially indicates sustained momentum in the housing market despite high mortgage rates, which have constrained activity overall. Builders are responding by constructing smaller, more affordable homes to attract buyers, while the inventory of new homes reached 494,000 units in December—the highest level since 2007. Notably, 118,000 homes were completed, the most since 2009.
Both companies operate as real estate investment trusts (REITs) focused on essential infrastructure, such as cell towers, which benefit indirectly from increased housing development and connectivity demands in growing residential areas. Rising demand for new housing may also spur further investments in telecommunications infrastructure, fueling optimism among investors about these stocks&#8217; long-term growth potential.
Price Action: NVR shares closed up 2.22% at $8,382.63 and D.R. Horton shares closed up 3.05% at $147.26 at the time of publication Monday, according to <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/pro/register/?utm_source=BZprocontent072924&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Housing Stocks Are On The Rise Today: What's Going On?

BofA Securities analyst Rafe Jadrosich downgraded D.R. Horton, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHI#NYSE">DHI</a>) and Smith Douglas Homes Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SDHC#NYSE">SDHC</a>), citing a tough outlook for homebuilder stocks <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">as the spring selling season approaches</a>.
Notably, the analyst says that Homebuilder stocks lagged the market in 2024 due to declining demand in the second half of the year, driven by higher mortgage rates.
The analyst anticipates the tough environment for homebuilders will continue through the first half of 2025.
The analyst expects return-on-equity to decline in 2025 for seven out of eight homebuilders, with order growth impacting margins.
The analyst&#8217;s top picks in builders are Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TOL#NYSE">TOL</a>) and NVR, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVR#NYSE">NVR</a>). TOL&#8217;s valuation is attractive compared to other builders with similar or lower ROE. NVR is the only builder in the analyst&#8217;s coverage universe that can hold ROE flat in 2025 vs. 2024.
Housing markets in the Northeast, Midwest, and Mid-Atlantic should outperform the Southeast and other regions, while the move-up and luxury segments are set to outperform entry-level markets, adds the analyst.
DHI: The analyst downgraded D.R. Horton from Buy to Neutral and cut the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DHI/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast from $160 to $150</a>.
The analyst writes that lot costs, which make up 26%-27% of total costs, are rising (+3% QoQ, +10% YoY in first-quarter), and DHI expects similar inflation before moderating to mid-to-high single digits on year in the next couple of quarters.
Due to the tough housing macro (higher rates, more supply), DHI may struggle to raise prices to offset lot cost inflation, adds the analyst.
The analyst says that DHI is no longer investing in its rental segment, but rental inventory already accounts for 11% of book value.
Jadrosich expects a low single-digit ROE for rentals in 2025, which will drag overall ROE by &gt;100bps.

SDHC: The analyst downgraded the company from Neutral to Underperform and cut the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sdhc/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast from $33 to $22</a>.
Jadrosich says that, like other builders, SDHC faces cost inflation headwinds while higher mortgage rates pressure net prices.
While ~15% community count growth and faster build cycles provide delivery tailwinds, the analyst notes absorptions will also need to improve to meet the guidance.
The valuation appears less compelling compared to peers, given the expectation that Smith Douglas&#8217; delivery growth will moderate in 2025 and its ROE will normalize closer to the group average, adds the analyst.
The analyst expect delivery growth of around 4% in 2025 vs. preliminary guidance of roughly 11% at the mid-point.
Jadrosich expects Smith Douglas to enter 2025 with a backlog that is down roughly 13% YoY.
Price Action: DHI shares are up 2.64% at $146.69, while SDHC sharesa re down 0.37% at $24.22 at the last check Monday.
