Fiserv's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FI#NYSE">FI</a>) short percent of float has risen 14.08% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 9.02 million shares sold short, which is 1.62% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.33 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.

<h3>Fiserv Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744992042_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Fiserv 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 Fiserv'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>, Fiserv's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.76%, 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>

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Fiserv Stock In The Last 5 Years

Looking into the current session, Fiserv Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FI#NYSE">FI</a>) shares are trading at $219.21, after a 1.12% decrease. Over the past month, the stock fell by 5.37%, but over the past year, it actually went up by 38.20%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743091273_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Fiserv P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</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 90.81 in the Financial Services industry, Fiserv Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 41.21. 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. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743091273_1.png" alt="Guage" />

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.

<h3>Why Insider Activity Matters in Finance</h3>
Considering insider transactions is valuable, but it's crucial to evaluate them in conjunction with other investment factors.
When discussing legal matters, the term "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. Such insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be completed within two business days of the transaction.
A new purchase by a company insider is a indication that they anticipate the stock will rise.
On the other hand, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
<h3>Exploring Key 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.

Major Decision: Frank Bisignano Exercises Options, Realizing $17.65M At Fiserv

President <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">Donald Trump</a>&#8216;s&nbsp;nominee to run the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/social-security">Social Security Administration</a>, Frank Bisignano, was questioned during a Tuesday Senate hearing about customer service improvements, erroneous payments and the potential privatization of the agency.&nbsp;
Bisignano previously served as CEO of Fiserv (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FI#NYSE">FI</a>), when the financial tech company's stock price more than doubled. He was also co-COO at JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) and held other senior positions at Citigroup (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>). Fortune Magazine <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/01/30/who-is-frank-bisignano-social-security-administration-trump-appointee-first-data-fiserv/">referred </a>to Bisignano&#8217;s &#8220;unmatched record as a crisis manager&#8221; who rebuilt Citigroup's decimated back-office operations after 9/11. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A New Career Path</h2>
Asked where he stood on Elon Musk's efforts via DOGE to cut costs at the agency by firing workers and closing offices, Bisignano replied, &#8220;My objective is to come in and motivate the workforce we have &#8230; to be able to get our job right the first time for the American public.&#8221;
During Tuesday&#8217;s hearing, Bisignano said he plans to use artificial intelligence to identify and weed out fraud, waste and abuse within the system. He repeatedly referred to the current 1% payment error rate, which he says is &#8220;five decimal places too high.&#8221; 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Meanwhile, A Growing Crisis At SSA</h2>
The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/03/25/social-security-phones-doge-cuts/?utm_campaign=wp_post_most&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=newsletter&amp;carta-url=https%3A%2F%2Fs2.washingtonpost.com%2Fcar-ln-tr%2F41c4f66%2F67e2d84d7347ac0732c0908f%2F59728921ae7e8a1cf4aab576%2F11%2F63%2F67e2d84d7347ac0732c0908f">reported</a> Tuesday that the SSA website crashed four times in 10 days this month and the agency is in a deep crisis.
"The federal agency that delivers $1.5 trillion a year in earned benefits to 73 million retired workers, their survivors and poor and disabled Americans is engulfed in crisis, further undermining its ability to provide reliable and quick service to vulnerable customers,&#8221; wrote the outlet. 
Former Labor Secretary <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/topic/robert-reich">Robert Reich</a> contends the SSA is not in crisis because it's running out of money and that raising the cap slightly on income subject to Social Security taxes would put the agency "in good shape forever."
Reich also <a href="https://robertreich.substack.com/p/why-social-security-is-in-the-worst?utm_source=substack&amp;publication_id=365422&amp;post_id=159585835&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_content=share&amp;utm_campaign=email-share&amp;triggerShare=true&amp;isFreemail=true&amp;r=wlhj&amp;triedRedirect=true">says</a> Musk is "dead wrong" in his fraud accusations because "Social Security has a payment accuracy rate of 99.7 percent. None of Musk's businesses comes close to matching that degree of accuracy."
Administrative costs, which Musk has bashed as wasteful, comprise only 0.5%, which Reich says are "the lowest by far of any large program in the public or private sector."
Though Trump swore he'd never touch Social Security, by empowering Musk, who has called the SSA a "Ponzi scheme," some say the buck stops with the president.
"What's going on is the destruction of the agency from the inside out, and it's accelerating," Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) told the Washington Post. "What they're doing now is unconscionable."

As per recent news, Fiserv announced on March 3 that it had completed its acquisition of Payfare Inc.

On the earnings front, Farmland Partners, on Feb. 19, reported better-than-expected fourth-quarter financial results and issued FY25 FFO guidance above estimates.
Sempra (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRE#NYSE">SRE</a>) reported a &#8220;bad&#8221; quarter, Cramer said, &#8220;There are several things that are definite misses. It does deserve to trade lower.&#8221;

&#8220;There are still remedies that are needed. Until all the remedies happen, I am not going to approve it,&#8221; Cramer said when asked about Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>).
On March 3, JPMorgan maintained an Underweight rating on the stock, saying its filling revealed material weaknesses.

Jim Cramer: Fiserv Is 'One Of The Greatest Fintechs,' Calls This Tech Company A Meme Stock

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stripe">Stripe</a> just pulled off a massive growth spurt, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/payments">the payments giants</a> should be paying attention. According to JPMorgan analyst Tien-tsin Huang, the private fintech powerhouse processed a staggering $1.4 trillion in volume last year, a 38% year-over-year jump that left competitors in the dust. 
For context, Huang highlights that Stripe's incremental volume growth alone &#8211; $400 billion &#8211; was more than a quarter of Visa Inc.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>) and Mastercard Inc.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>) combined growth and nearly twice the annual gross payment volume (GPV) of Block Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XYZ#NYSE">XYZ</a>), Shopify Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>) and Toast Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TOST#NYSE">TOST</a>) combined.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stripe's AI Play: The Payment Backbone Of OpenAI &amp; Anthropic</h2>
If AI is the future, Stripe is already its financial backbone. Huang points out that every AI company on the Forbes AI 50 that sells online &#8211; OpenAI, Anthropic, Midjourney, Perplexity, and others &#8211; processes payments through Stripe. 
He notes that these AI firms are scaling at unprecedented speeds, with the top 100 AI startups on Stripe reaching $5 million in annualized revenue within 24 months, compared to 37 months for SaaS firms in 2018.
For investors seeking exposure to this AI-driven payments boom, Huang sees potential in publicly traded payment giants. The Global X FinTech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FINX#NYSE">FINX</a>) and ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKF#NYSE">ARKF</a>) hold stakes in key Stripe competitors like PayPal Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NASDAQ">PYPL</a>), Block and Adyen NV (OTCOK:ADYEY).

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stablecoins: The Next Big Payments Battleground</h2>
Huang also highlights Stripe's growing focus on Stablecoins, which took a leap forward with last month's acquisition of Bridge. Unlike past crypto hype cycles, Stripe sees real-world use cases: corporate treasury, remittances, and payments in low-card penetration markets. 
Huang notes that PayPal's $PYUSD stablecoin is already advancing in this space, raising the question of whether Stripe's move will accelerate adoption across the industry.
With Stripe increasingly competing against Adyen, PayPal's Braintree, and Fiserv Inc.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FI#NYSE">FI</a>) Carat, Huang sees a rapidly shifting payments landscape.
Investors should closely monitor how public fintech players respond—because Stripe's expansion isn't slowing down.
