<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.

UBS Upgrades EQT to Buy, Raises Price Target to $64

The U.S. services sector grew at its slowest pace in over 17 months in April, while inflationary pressures surged to an over two-year high, highlighting a troubling combination of weakening demand and rising costs fueled by trade tariff disruptions that could complicate the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/federal-reserve">Federal Reserve's path forward.</a>
According to data released Monday by the Institute for Supply Management (ISM), the Services Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) edged up from 50.8% in March to 51.6% in April, slightly above economists&#8217; expectations of 50.6. While this reading suggests continued growth, it&#8217;s the slowest expansion in activity since late 2023.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Pricing Pressures Intensify Despite Tepid Growth</h3>
ISM's subindex for prices paid, a key inflation gauge, jumped sharply from 60.9% in March to 65.1% in April, reaching the highest level since February 2023. 
This spike reflects intensifying cost pressures across the service economy, driven partly by rising import prices and the pass-through effects of tariffs.
&#8220;Regarding tariffs, respondents cited actual pricing impacts as concerns, more so than uncertainty and future pressures," said Steve Miller, chair of ISM's Services Business Survey Committee.
 "Respondents continue to mention federal agency budget cuts as a drag on business, but overall, results are improving."
The index for new orders rose from 50.4% to 52.3%, while the employment component climbed from 46.2% to 49% — still signaling contraction, but a less severe one.
 Business activity, however, moderated from 55.9 to 53.7, its softest growth pace since January, though it still marked the 59th consecutive month of expansion.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">S&amp;P Global Flags Stalling Momentum, Stagflation Risks</h3>
S&amp;P Global&#8217;s separate reading on the U.S. services sector painted a less optimistic picture. 
The firm downwardly revised its final Services PMI for April from a preliminary estimates of 51.4 points to 50.8 points, a steep decline from March&#8217;s 54.4 and the lowest since November 2022.
"While tariff announcements mean manufacturing dominates the news, a worrying backstory is developing in the vastly larger services economy," said Chris Williamson, chief business economist at S&amp;P Global. 
"Business activity and hiring have come closer to stalling in April amid plunging business confidence."
Williamson indicated that services exports are falling at their fastest rate since 2022, while domestic demand appears to be softening. 
He added that tariffs are pushing up input costs, especially in consumer-facing sectors like restaurants and hospitality, and warned of the growing threat of stagflation, a toxic mix of stagnant growth and rising inflation.
S&amp;P Global's Composite PMI, which blends manufacturing and services activity to gauge overall private-sector performance, was also revised down from 51.2 to 50.6 in April. 
That marked the weakest expansion since December 2023 and brought the index dangerously close to the 50 threshold that separates growth from contraction.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reactions</h3>
Stocks remained broadly unaltered following the PMI releases. 
The S&amp;P 500 index held losses of 0.5%, trading at 5,655 points by 10:20 a.m. ET, potentially ending a 9-day winning streak. The Nasdaq 100 — as tracked by the Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) — slipped 0.7%, dipping below the 20,000 mark, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average trimmed earlier losses to trade down 0.2%.
Within the S&amp;P 500, United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>), Delta Air Lines Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>) and EQT Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQT#NYSE">EQT</a>) were top gainers, each up around 3%. 
On the downside, Zimmer Biomet Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZBH#NYSE">ZBH</a>), Tyson Foods Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSN#NYSE">TSN</a>) and ON Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ON#NASDAQ">ON</a>) were among the steepest losers, all sliding roughly 9% on the session.
The U.S. dollar index – as tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>) – trimmed losses after the PMI reports, as higher price pressures led traders to scale back bets on Federal Reserve rate cuts. Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury yield rose by 4 basis points to 4.35%.
According to CME Group FedWatch, now there is only a 29% chance of a 25-basis-point cut by June, down from 35% on Friday.

Jeremy Knop, Chief Financial Officer at EQT (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQT#NYSE">EQT</a>), disclosed an insider sell on April 30, according to a recent SEC filing.
What Happened: Knop's recent move involves selling 7,216 shares of EQT. This information is documented in a Form 4 filing with the <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0000033213/000141588925011573//Archives/edgar/data/33213/000141588925011573/0001415889-25-011573-index.htm">U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission</a> on Wednesday. The total value is $368,016.
Monitoring the market, EQT's shares up by 2.55% at $50.7 during Thursday's morning.

All the firm's operating revenue is generated in the US, with most revenue flowing from the Marcellus Shale field and through the sale of natural gas.
<h3>EQT: Delving into Financials</h3>
Revenue Growth: EQT's revenue growth over a period of 3 months has been noteworthy. As of 31 March, 2025, the company achieved a revenue growth rate of approximately 85.24%. This indicates a substantial increase in the company's top-line earnings. When compared to others in the Energy sector, the company excelled with a growth rate higher than the average among peers.

</li>
<li>
EV/EBITDA Analysis (Enterprise Value to its Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation &amp; Amortization): The company's EV/EBITDA ratio 11.27 is above the industry average, suggesting that the market values the company more highly for each unit of EBITDA. This could be attributed to factors such as strong growth prospects or superior operational efficiency.
</li>
</ul>

<h3>Illuminating the Importance of Insider Transactions</h3>
While insider transactions provide valuable information, they should be part of a broader analysis in making investment decisions.
From a legal standpoint, the term "insider" pertains to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities as outlined in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This encompasses executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. These insiders are mandated to inform the public of their transactions through a Form 4 filing, to be submitted within two business days of the transaction.
A company insider's new purchase is a indicator of their positive anticipation for a rise in the stock.
While insider sells may not necessarily reflect a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
<h3>Understanding Crucial Transaction Codes</h3>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">Investors</a> prefer focusing on transactions that take place in the open market, indicated in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 indicates a purchase, while S indicates a sale. Transaction code C indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code A indicates grant, award or other acquisition of securities from the company.

Morgan Stanley Maintains Overweight on EQT, Raises Price Target to $65

Risk-on sentiment dominated Wall Street on Wednesday, as upbeat earnings reports and conciliatory messages from the Trump administration h<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">elped lift investor confidence.</a>
The administration eased market fears on two major fronts that have recently weighed heavily on sentiment. On the trade front, tensions with China appeared to thaw, with reports suggesting the White House is considering reducing tariffs on certain categories of goods.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent added fuel to the rally, stating U.S.-China tariffs are unsustainable and will likely need to be lowered to facilitate meaningful negotiations.
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump offered an abrupt shift in tone toward Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, saying he has no intention to fire him, a remark that helped calm concerns over political interference in monetary policy.
By midday in New York, the S&amp;P 500 was up by nearly 2%, though it had earlier climbed even higher. The Nasdaq 100 outperformed with a 2.5% gain, driven by strength in Magnificent Seven stocks.
Trump's pivot on Powell pushed Treasury yields lower across the curve, with the 30-year yield falling five basis points to 4.83%, after briefly topping 4.90% the previous day.
On the macro front, flash Purchasing Managers&#8217; Index surveys revealed slowing growth momentum in the U.S. economy, as the services sector decelerated sharply following the impact <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44952395/us-business-activity-growth-slows-in-april-as-services-suffer-tariff-shock-markets-rally-as-trade-war-cools">of recent tariff shocks.</a>
The U.S. dollar strengthened, while gold plunged 2.6%, heading for its worst session since November.
Oil prices dropped more than 2% following speculation that OPEC+ may announce a new output hike as early as next month.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) held steady around $93,000.

Stocks Surge On China Tariff Hopes, Tesla Jumps, Gold Loses Shine: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

U.S. stock futures continued rising on Wednesday after a day of strong recovery on Tuesday. Futures of major benchmark indices were higher in premarket.
President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44943319/craig-shapiro-takes-a-dig-at-donald-trump-trump-2-0-same-as-1-0-after-administration-hints-at-a-">hinted at a deal with China</a>. While speaking to the reporters at the White House, he said, "I think we will make a deal with China. If we don't make a deal, we will set it. I think they will want to be a part of the United States. We're doing great. This is the Golden Age.&#8221;
Meanwhile, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44935649/alibaba-nio-pdd-shares-rise-amid-potential-de-escalation-of-china-trade-tensions-whats-going-on">during a private meeting</a> hosted by JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), hinted at de-escalation with China. 
He said that a deal is achievable even as the formal negotiations have not begun yet. Bessent acknowledged that current duties were untenable, but did not provide the specifics or the timeline of the deal.
The 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.34% and the two-year bond was at 3.83%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 94.2% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its May meeting.

Insights From Analysts:
Senior economist Mohamed El-Erian underscored in an X post that volatility was the dominant theme for U.S. financial assets as the stocks recovered sharply on Tuesday after Monday&#8217;s heavy selloff.
According to him, Tuesday&#8217;s session followed the &#8220;exact opposite session on Monday,&#8221; which had seen a decline in equities, a fall in the dollar, and a rise in gold prices. 
He was of the opinion that &#8220;Given all the uncertainties in play, it is prudent to expect continued volatility in the weeks ahead.&#8221;

Ryan Detrick from Carson Research highlighted a trend in the market, the occurrence of which has marked the bottom within the NYSE in 1987, 2009, 2011 and 2020.
According to the data, over 89% of stocks advanced, with 89% of trading volume on Tuesday. This has happened on two days within nine trading days on April 9 and April 22.
This market signal's reliability stems from extreme market breadth, indicating oversold conditions, often preceding rebounds as investor sentiment shifts.
However, the past performance isn't a guaranteed predictor, especially with current pressures like Trump's tariff policies and potential Federal Reserve rate changes.
Detrick said that after such a market signal, the market was &#8220;Up nearly 25% on avg 6 months later.&#8221;

According to Louis Navellier of Navellier &amp; Associates, investors, including Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, have been &#8220;needlessly worried&#8221; about inflation and stagflation that has not materialized. &#8220;The reality is that deflation has arrived in the wake of the lowest crude oil prices in the past four years, so investors, the Fed, and our allies have been unnecessarily worried over nothing,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;The stock market is a manic crowd that likes to react first and think second. It is now time to think and prosper during another spectacular earnings announcement season. Spring has arrived, and consumers are increasingly getting out and about, which is why the strongest retail sales in two years just occurred,&#8221; he added.
