<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.

Investor Making $1,000 a Day in Dividends Shares Top 6 Stocks in Portfolio – 'Stay Focused and Ride Out Market Crashes'

As global growth forecasts dim and trade tensions rattle markets, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-dividend-stocks-to-buy-and-hold">high-dividend stocks</a> are stealing the spotlight. The OECD just <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45752680/global-growth-forecast-cut-taco-and-blind-money-support-the-stock-market">slashed its U.S. GDP outlook</a> to 1.6% for 2025 from 2.2%, citing persistent policy uncertainty and trade friction. 
That's prompted investors to sharply pivot toward dividend payers—names that offer predictable income when price action gets erratic.
In an environment where the S&amp;P 500 <a href="https://www.multpl.com/s-p-500-dividend-yield/table/by-year">yields</a> a tepid 1.28%, cash-generating stalwarts with robust balance sheets and fat dividends are in high demand. Historically, dividend-paying stocks have outpaced non-payers by more than 2x in average annual returns, and June 2025 is shaping up to be no exception.

Here are three high-yield stocks &#8211; and one ETF &#8211; that are standing out in this market:
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Realty Income Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/O#NYSE">O</a>) – Yield: 5.77%</h2>
The monthly payout machine continues to deliver, with 659 straight dividend checks and a rock-solid 75% AFFO payout ratio. 
Realty Income's <a href="https://www.realtyincome.com/sites/realty-income/files/2025-05/Quarterly_Investor_Presentation-Q1_2025.pdf">$23 billion</a> in first-quarter acquisition opportunities and A-rated credit make it a defensive pick as tariff negotiations linger.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Enterprise Products Partners LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EPD#NYSE">EPD</a>) – Yield: 6.89%</h2>
Energy's volatility hasn't fazed this pipeline operator. Its fee-based model and <a href="https://ir.enterpriseproducts.com/news-releases/news-release-details/enterprise-reports-first-quarter-2025-earnings">$6 billion</a> in 2025 projects support a generous yield, without the commodity price drama. A steady cash-flow engine for income seekers.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">OneMain Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OMF#NYSE">OMF</a>) – Yield: 8.02%</h2>
With a 9.69% gain over the past month alone, OneMain Holdings blends high yield with capital appreciation. Its strong balance sheet gives investors confidence amid uncertain economic signals.

<h3>Enterprise Prods Partners P/E Compared to Competitors</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. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 19.96 in the Oil, Gas &amp; Consumable Fuels industry, Enterprise Prods Partners Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 11.65. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued.

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.

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.
