<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.

<h3>Comparing Devon Energy'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>, Devon Energy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.13%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

(DVN) - Analyzing Devon Energy's Short Interest

President-elect Donald Trump spotlighted artificial intelligence and drilling expansion as pillars of his economic vision Tuesday, pledging to foster AI-driven innovation while slashing energy<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/regulations"> costs through expanded deregulation.</a>
During a press conference at Mar-a-Lago, Trump outlined plans to accelerate America's leadership in artificial intelligence by supporting private investments in data centers and energy infrastructure.
"A lot of people don&#8217;t realize that AI is going to be a big thing but you'll need double the electricity at least that we have right now," Trump said, hinting at the plan to markedly raise U.S. energy production to meet fast-growing AI demands.
He indicated that expanding access to oil and gas is critical to keeping energy costs low and powering future industry.
Calling Biden's offshore drilling ban "a crime" against America's economic potential, Trump pledged to overturn the policy immediately upon taking office. "We're going to be drilling, and energy costs are going to come way down," he said.
According to Trump, reversing Biden&#8217;s offshore drilling ban would unlock 625 million acres of offshore reserves valued at $50 to $60 trillion.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Pledges Faster Permits</h1>
Trump contrasted the U.S. permitting delays with China's rapid expansion of energy infrastructure, which he said is fueling its artificial intelligence sector. 
He called out the U.S. permitting system as a major barrier to economic progress, particularly in the energy sector.
"China is already building massive electric facilities, and you know how they're being fired up? With coal," Trump said. 
The tycoon pledged to streamline environmental permitting for large-scale projects, promising expedited reviews for companies investing $1 billion or more in the U.S. economy. 
"We're going to move them quickly through the environmental process," Trump said, referencing delays that have sometimes lasted more than a decade. 
"I've seen plants in Louisiana where I got it approved in literally a week after they spent 14 and a half years trying to get it done."
Trump framed this regulatory overhaul as essential for keeping America competitive, particularly in energy and artificial intelligence. 
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reactions</h1>
U.S. oil and gas stocks outperformed on Tuesday, with the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>) up by 1%, yet trimming session gains in afternoon trading.
The broader energy sector&#8217;s price action showed little sign of bullish momentum after Trump&#8217;s remarks.
Among individual names, Devon Energy Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DVN#NYSE">DVN</a>) gained 2.8%, Texas Pacific Land Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TPL#NYSE">TPL</a>) rose 2.7%, and Hess Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HES#NYSE">HES</a>) advanced 2%, leading the pack of Tuesday&#8217;s top-performing, large-cap energy stocks.
The technology-heavy AI sector lagged significantly, with the Global X Artificial Intelligence &amp; Technology ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIQ#NYSE">AIQ</a>) closing nearly 2% lower. The decline in AI sector came as NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) tumbled 6% and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) fell 4.1%.

Wolfe Research Upgrades Devon Energy to Outperform

Russian gas exports reportedly stopped running through Soviet-era Ukrainian pipelines on Wednesday after Ukraine refused to renew <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/25/01/42769181/natural-gas-prices-surge-as-arctic-blast-freezes-us-3-stocks-on-the-move">a transit agreement.</a>
The Details: Russia's gas firm Gazprom said the gas stopped at 0500 GMT after Ukraine refused to renew the transit agreement in a widely anticipated move.  
Reuters reported that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wrote on Telegram that the end of Russian natural gas flows through Ukraine was &#8220;one of Moscow&#8217;s biggest defeats.&#8221;&nbsp;
Zelenskyy also encouraged allies to supply more gas to Europe to fill the gap left by the end of the Russian supply.&nbsp;
&#8220;The more there is on the market from Europe&#8217;s real partners, the faster we will overcome the last negative consequences of European energy dependence on Russia,&#8221; he wrote.

Shares of U.S.-based liquified natural gas exporters, including Devon Energy Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DVN#NYSE">DVN</a>) and Cheniere Energy, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LNG#NYSE">LNG</a>), are up Thursday as LNG exports to Europe are expected to rise in 2025. 
"Cheniere's LNG has been a vital part of the European response to Russia's war in Ukraine and has shown how security of supply, in the form of reliability of production and flexibility of delivery, are vastly important for this moment, and for the decades to come," Corey Grindal, COO of Cheniere Energy said in a 2023<a href="https://www.lng2023.org/news/cheniere-key-contributor-european-energy-security"> interview</a>.&nbsp;
"Cheniere produced about 11% of all LNG worldwide in 2022 and more than 70% of Cheniere's LNG was exported to Europe, by Cheniere or our customers," Grindal added.&nbsp;
The European Commission released a statement stating that the EU had anticipated and prepared for the stoppage of Russian gas flows.&nbsp;
‘&#8221;The European gas infrastructure is flexible enough to provide gas of non-Russian origin,&#8221; a spokesperson for the commission said. &#8220;It has been reinforced with significant new LNG (liquefied natural gas) import capacities since 2022.&#8221;
According to Reuters, Hungary will continue to receive Russian gas through the TurkStream pipeline and the last remaining European buyers of Russian gas, Slovakia and Austria, have arranged other supplies. &nbsp;
The Slovakian government said on Tuesday that there is no danger of a gas shortage and its state-owned gas firm SPP has gas supply contracts with large international suppliers including BP PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BP#NYSE">BP</a>), Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) and Shell PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHEL#NYSE">SHEL</a>).

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">New Year Mantra</h4>
An enlarged chart of SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust which represents the benchmark stock market index S&amp;P 500 (SPX).
Note the following:
<ul>
<li>On the first day of trading in 2025, the chart shows that the stock market has pulled back close to the breakout line.</li>
<li>The chart shows the micro resistance zone and the support zone.</li>
<li>RSI on the chart shows that the stock market is neither overbought nor oversold.&nbsp; It is poised to go either way.</li>
<li>Wall Street machines are ready to jump on whichever direction the stock market starts moving.</li>
<li>In the early trade, the momo crowd and meme crowd are buying extremely aggressively.</li>
<li>At the start of 2025, the sentiment is extremely positive.&nbsp; The Arora Report has been sharing with readers, extreme positive sentiment is a contrary signal.&nbsp; In plain English, it means sell.&nbsp; Keep in mind, sentiment is not a precise timing indicator.&nbsp; Further, sentiment is only one of many indicators.&nbsp; Prudent investors should follow a 360 degree analysis from a proven system such as the adaptive <a href="https://thearorareport.com/ALLOCATION%2BMODELS.htm">ZYX Allocation Model </a>with inputs in ten categories.</li>
<li>The last time sentiment was this positive at the start of a new year was in 2000. In 2000, after five years of internet frenzy, the market crashed.&nbsp; Those who were primarily invested in speculative stocks lost 90% &#8211; 95% of the value of their portfolios.</li>
<li>As the market enters 2025, the AI frenzy has been going for only two years versus five years of internet frenzy before the market crashed in 2000.</li>
<li>With extreme hopium, here is the mantra the stock market is following for 2025:
<ul>
<li>Trump will fix everything.&nbsp; At The Arora Report, we would like nothing more than to see Trump succeed.&nbsp; However, the market may face a rude awakening when hopium meets reality.</li>
<li>As a Magic 8 Ball solution, the market believes bitcoin is the solution to budget deficits, $36T of national debt, and maintaining the dollar as the world's reserve currency.&nbsp; Trump is apparently planning a one million bitcoin U.S. strategic reserve.&nbsp; The biggest U.S. based bitcoin whale is advocating for a six to seven million bitcoin reserve.&nbsp; In The Arora Report analysis, while it is not impossible for bitcoin to fix these issues, the probability of it working out the way bitcoin bulls are promoting is low.&nbsp;</li>
<li>The stock market is believing that the AI frenzy will continue for a third year, taking the stock market to new highs.&nbsp; In The Arora Report analysis, AI will become smarter and more pervasive in 2025, leading to large productivity gains.&nbsp; However, AI will also be disruptive.&nbsp; Even though the stock market thinks there will only be winners from AI, the reality is there will also be many losers.&nbsp; Further in The Arora Report analysis, money will flow out of some of the present day AI favorites to more software companies and other companies that are users of AI.</li>
<li>Quantum computing is the latest buzz word that is spreading like wildfire.&nbsp; In The Arora Report analysis, quantum computing has the potential to be bigger than the internet and AI.&nbsp; The emphasis here is on the word "potential." &nbsp; Further in The Arora Report analysis, know-nothing pumpers are in fantasy land regarding quantum computing.&nbsp; Although there are significant advances in the science, reality is nowhere near the fantasy that is spreading like wildfire.&nbsp; Expect many in the momo crowd to become bag holders.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>The stock market is hoping that the Fed will continue to cut rates under pressure from Trump even when the data may not support rate cuts.&nbsp; In The Arora Report analysis, in 2018 in the face of opposition from Trump, Powell did not have the spine to continue with rate cuts and he reversed.&nbsp; Market hopium regarding the Fed may work, unless inflation heats up.&nbsp; In The Arora Report analysis, there is better than 50% probability of inflation heating up depending upon how Trump executes his policies.</li>
<li>Initial jobless claims came at 211K vs. 224K consensus.&nbsp; This indicates that the jobs picture remains strong, especially at the low end.&nbsp; If the data continues this strong, the Fed will have difficulty cutting rates further.</li>
<li>As of this writing, some of the extreme optimism from early this morning is dissipating on the data that Tesla Inc deliveries came at 495K vs. 504K consensus.   TSLA stock has been a major gainer after Trump&#8217;s re-election.  As full disclosure, TSLA is in The Arora Report&#8217;s ZYX Buy Core Model Portfolio.</li>
</ul>
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Europe</h4>
After 57 years, Russian gas has stopped flowing to Europe through Ukraine.&nbsp; Natural gas prices are rising.&nbsp; Two beneficiaries of rising natural gas prices in The Arora Report&#8217;s ZYX Buy Core Model Portfolio are Shell PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHEL#NYSE">SHEL</a>) and EOG Resources Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EOG#NYSE">EOG</a>).&nbsp; Other stocks benefiting from rising natural gas prices are Expand Energy Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXE#NASDAQ">EXE</a>), EQT Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQT#NYSE">EQT</a>), and Range Resources Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RRC#NYSE">RRC</a>) – as full disclosure, these stocks are in the portfolio that surrounds The Arora Report&#8217;s Model Portfolio in ZYX Buy.&nbsp; As full disclosure, natural gas stock Devon Energy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DVN#NYSE">DVN</a>) is in the January Effect list.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">China</h4>
Chinese stocks have started the new year on a sour note on concerns about Trump tariffs.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Magnificent Seven Money Flows</h4>
In the early trade, money flows are positive in Amazon.com, Inc., Alphabet Inc Class C , Meta Platforms Inc, Microsoft Corp, NVIDIA Corp, and TSLA.
In the early trade, money flows are negative in Apple Inc .
In the early trade, money flows are positive in S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY) and Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Momo Crowd And Smart Money In Stocks</h4>
Investors can gain an edge by knowing money flows in SPY and QQQ.  Investors can get a bigger edge by knowing when smart money is buying stocks, gold, and oil.  The most popular ETF for gold is SPDR Gold Trust.  The most popular ETF for silver is iShares Silver Trust.  The most popular ETF for oil is United States Oil ETF.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Bitcoin</h4>
Bitcoin is seeing buying.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Protection Band And What To Do Now</h4>
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.&nbsp; The proprietary protection band from The Arora Report is very popular.&nbsp; The protection band puts all of the data, all of the indicators, all of the news, all of the crosscurrents, all of the models, and all of the analysis in an analytical framework that is easily actionable by investors.
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider a protection band consisting of cash or Treasury bills or short-term tactical trades as well as short to medium term hedges and short term hedges. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges.&nbsp; The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive.&nbsp; If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
A protection band of 0% would be very bullish and would indicate full investment with 0% in cash.&nbsp; A protection band of 100% would be very bearish and would indicate a need for aggressive protection with cash and hedges or aggressive short selling.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash.&nbsp; When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.&nbsp; High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional 60/40 Portfolio</h4>
Probability based risk reward adjusted for inflation does not favor long duration strategic bond allocation at this time.
Those who want to stick to traditional 60% allocation to stocks and 40% to bonds may consider focusing on only high quality bonds and bonds of five year duration or less.&nbsp; Those willing to bring sophistication to their investing may consider using bond ETFs as tactical positions and not strategic positions at this time.
The Arora Report is known for its accurate calls. The Arora Report correctly called the big artificial intelligence rally before anyone else, the new bull market of 2023, the bear market of 2022, new stock market highs right after the virus low in 2020, the virus drop in 2020, the DJIA rally to 30,000 when it was trading at 16,000, the start of a mega bull market in 2009, and the financial crash of 2008.

Stock Market's New Year Mantra - Trump, Bitcoin, AI, And Quantum Will Fix Everything

The most oversold stocks in the energy sector presents an opportunity to buy into undervalued companies.
The RSI is a momentum indicator, which compares a stock&#8217;s strength on days when prices go up to its strength on days when prices go down. When compared to a stock&#8217;s price action, it can give traders a better sense of how a stock may perform in the short term. An asset is typically considered oversold when the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/rsi">RSI is below 30</a>, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>.
