<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.

How Is The Market Feeling About American Finl Gr?

Donald Trump&#8217;s aggressive economic agenda could face an unexpected challenge – an economy that may be too strong for dramatic intervention.
With unemployment at 4.1%,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42918778/december-jobs-report-a-wake-up-call-for-anyone-betting-on-rate-cuts-analyst-says"> job growth surging by 256,000 in December</a> and output expanding above trend, Trump&#8217;s plans for sweeping tariffs and immigration restrictions might risk disrupting rather than boosting economic performance, according to economists and Federal Reserve officials.
&#8220;Success for the Trump administration would be to do no harm to the exceptionally performing economy it is inheriting,&#8221; Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody&#8217;s Analytics, told Reuters. The planned mix of tariffs, deportations and deficit-funded tax cuts &#8220;will do harm. How much depends on how aggressively these policies are pursued.&#8221;

</ul>
The economic landscape Trump faces in 2025 differs markedly from his first term. Inflation remains stubbornly above the Federal Reserve&#8217;s target, 30-year mortgage rates are above 7% and government borrowing costs have climbed. Treasury yields around 5% reflect market concerns about fiscal discipline.
Karen Dynan, a Harvard economist and former Obama administration official, points to immigration as a key factor in recent growth that restrictive policies could threaten. &#8220;If you believe the economic growth in excess of trend is from immigration, it is going to be hard to get numbers as large as we saw in the latter part of the Biden administration,&#8221; she said.

Federal Reserve officials have begun factoring potential policy changes into their outlook. While Richmond Fed President Tom Barkin expects &#8220;more upside than downside in terms of growth,&#8221; the Fed&#8217;s staff has suggested slower growth and higher unemployment may result from expected trade and immigration policies.
Bond markets particularly signal caution. &#8220;There is still a concern inflation may not be beaten,&#8221; Fed Gov. Christopher Waller said recently, noting growing attention to fiscal deficits. &#8220;At some point, the markets are going to demand a premium.&#8221;
Despite Trump creating<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42871802/doge-co-lead-elon-musk-and-vivek-ramaswamy-reportedly-on-a-hiring-spree-for-full-timers"> a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)</a> to find savings, no plans address major deficit drivers like health and retirement benefits that both parties consider untouchable.

According to CFTC-regulated platform Kalshi, betting markets price in a 63% chance that Trump will create a National Bitcoin Fund by the end of the year.

The government aims for 82% of the national energy supply to come from renewables by 2030, a leap from the current 40%, even as it faces infrastructure and supply challenges — particularly with energy costs that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42482377/australian-opposition-goes-nuclear-211-billion-plan-could-open-doors-for-uranium-miners">broadly fluctuate</a> between its territories.
As a part of the "Future Made in Australia" program, the funding will provide production credits to aluminum smelters. This is expected to incentivize the production of low-carbon aluminum created using renewable energy resources.
Australia currently ranks as the world's sixth-largest aluminum producer.
"These new aluminum production credits should provide some of the transitional support needed as Australia's energy infrastructure and systems develop, and energy pricing returns to competitive levels," <a href="https://amtil.com.au/green-aluminium-production-credit/">noted</a> Marghanita Johnson, Australian Aluminum Council CEO.
However, challenges persist, particularly with securing affordable renewable energy to meet targets
Tomago Aluminum CEO Jerome Dozol recently warned about overly optimistic government goals.
"The price of electricity on offer is too expensive for us to keep operating without government intervention," he said, <a href="https://www.afr.com/companies/energy/the-country-s-biggest-aluminium-smelter-says-green-target-unreachable-20241015-p5kick">per</a> AFR's report. Tomago, the country's largest aluminum smelter (majority-owned by Rio Tinto), aims to fully transition to renewables by 2035.
Australia's aluminum industry faces stiff global competition and high energy costs. Tomago, which produces 590,000 tons of aluminum annually, is a critical player, contributing AU$2.2 billion to the economy.
Despite challenges, optimism remains. "Governments are recognizing the problem and the benefits of interim aid for a strong aluminum sector," Dozol stated.

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) researcher Troy Teslike sees three possibilities for the $7,500 tax credit currently available on the purchase of new electric vehicles once Donald Trump swears in as President on Monday.
What Happened: According to Teslike, Trump may choose to restrict the reach of the tax credit, making it apply to less number of EV models or less number of potential customers by changing the eligibility criteria. 
The President-elect could instead also restrict eligibility criteria immediately and announce that Congress will cancel the tax credit in six months, Teslike said.
However, according to Teslike, it would be ideal for EV adoption and Tesla deliveries this year if Trump instead chooses to leave the eligibility criteria of the tax credit untouched while announcing that he wants Congress to cancel it within 6 months. 
The last option, where the eligibility criteria are left untouched, will give potential buyers time to make their Tesla purchases while utilizing the tax credit. This will allow the company to make up for the drop in sales during the second half of the year once the tax credit is dropped, Teslike opined.

Why It Matters: In November, Reuters reported that President-elect&nbsp;Donald Trump‘s transition team is planning to kill $7,500 tax credit available on EV purchases. The report also noted that Tesla representatives expressed support for ending the subsidy to the team.
&#8220;In my view, we should end all government subsidies, including those for EVs, oil and gas,&#8221; Tesla CEO&nbsp;Elon Musk&nbsp;then said.
During Tesla's second-quarter earnings in late July, Musk also said that the impact of the elimination of subsidies&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39934750/trump-presidency-and-ira-cut-would-be-devastating-for-competitors-says-elon-musk-long-term-probably" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">would only be slight for Tesla</a>&nbsp;but devastating for its competitors. The elimination of EV subsidies would probably help Tesla in the long term, he added.
Teslike, however, is of the opinion that the loss of tax credit will only make Tesla<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42641207/researcher-says-cancelation-of-7500-ev-tax-credit-could-impact-teslas-deliveries-despite-ceo-elon-musk-claiming-otherwise"> lose its market to gas cars</a> from luxury car brands.
&#8220;Tesla competes with gas cars from BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, and Audi. Therefore, without the tax credit, Teslas will effectively be $7,500 more expensive compared to those cars,&#8221;&nbsp;Teslike said in November.

Tesla Researcher Says It Will Help EV Giant's Annual Deliveries If Trump Does Not Change EV Tax Credit Eligibility Criteria Immediately

A new report from Bernstein says that the cryptocurrency market will closely examine the utilization of 80% of the Official Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>) token supply held by Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43080060/donald-trump-and-melania-memecoins-combined-market-value-is-now-higher-than-that-of-warren-buffetts-hot-pick">insiders in the coming days.</a>
The TRUMP token, launched unexpectedly on the Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) blockchain, reached a fully diluted market cap of approximately $73 billion. It traded over $30 billion in a day within 48 hours, surpassing Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) as one of the largest meme coins in the market, before experiencing a drawdown of about 50% from its highs.
The token&#8217;s launch was facilitated by CIC Digital, an entity associated with the Trump campaign, which had previously launched branded NFTs and merchandise.

While the industry has viewed the token launch by the &#8220;strongest political figure&#8221; as a sign that the US is more open to digital assets and that regulatory risk might be lessened, the Bernstein report shifts the focus to the token distribution structure.
The report points out that 80% of the token&#8217;s supply is held by wallets associated with CIC Digital, raising concerns that these insiders might distribute this large supply, leading to losses for other investors and creating pressure on the token&#8217;s market value.
&#8220;The team could use TRUMP coin as collateral to build something useful in crypto banking &amp; finance or build an engagement model to reward supporters/holders. Or it could use it as a treasury asset to fund more Trump-related political initiatives,&#8221; the report stated.
Given how blockchain-based market-making works, the team is already earning strong revenue from supplying liquidity to trading pools. Given how fast the token reached a stratospheric market value, the 80% supply held by insiders does create some pressure on its market value,&#8221; it further said.
The report also touches upon the regulatory environment. It suggests that the launch of a token by a major political figure signifies a new era where governments may view crypto as a tool to reach out to the masses.
Despite this potential shift, the report cautions that the current regulatory regime in the U.S. has been about cracking down on crypto builders and enforcement actions on token-related activities. 
The president's token launch therefore signals a new era and may lead to new regulations.

Ross Stores's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROST#NYSE">ROST</a>) short percent of float has risen 5.41% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 5.10 million shares sold short, which is 1.56% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.25 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.

Looking Into RLI's Recent Short Interest

With President-elect Donald Trump swearing-in on Monday as the next President of the United States, the &#8220;Air Force One&#8221; title will be upon any Air Force aircraft that he travels in. 
What Happened: The Air Force One technically refers to any Air Force aircraft with the U.S. President on board. However, it is often used to refer to two primary presidential aircraft manufactured by Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) called VC-25A, a modified variant of the Boeing 747-200 airliner.
The U.S. Air Force is looking forward to replacing the current primary presidential aircraft with VC-25B, based on the Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental aircraft given the VC-25A is now old after being delivered in 1990 under the George HW Bush administration.
Trump in 2019 had proposed changing the colors of Air Force One to red, white, and blue but the Biden administration abandoned the design in favor of the colors of the aircraft it would replace. 
Inside Current Air Force One: The current Air Force One aircraft has a longer range than the ordinary 747 aircraft and sports 4000 square feet of interior floor space. Dubbed the &#8220;flying Oval Office,&#8221; it has a conference room, quarters for the president and the first lady, an office area for senior staff members, and another office that converts into a medical facility when necessary.
It further has two galleys that can provide 100 meals in one sitting in addition to multi-frequency radios for air-to-air, air-to-ground, and satellite communications. 
According to Boeing, the key differences between the VC-25 aircraft and the Boeing 747 are the electronic and communications equipment and state-of-the-art navigation in the former.
Air Force One is maintained and operated by the Presidential Airlift Group, part of the White House Military Office.
Boeing&#8217;s Long-Drawn Crisis: Boeing has been faced with one crisis after the other over the past few years, starting in late 2018 when a Boeing aircraft went down in the sea off the coast of Indonesia.
In April 2022, The Wall Street Journal<a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/boeings-new-air-force-one-hit-by-production-mishaps-11649170748"> reported</a> that the company is facing factory problems as it seeks to modify the aircraft meant to serve as Air Force One in the future. The company attempted to place one of the two jets onto jacks and risked damaging it, the report said. 
In January 2024, a door panel flew off an Alaska Airlines plane manufactured by Boeing, forcing an emergency landing and creating further safety concerns. The Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on air travel in 2020 did not help the company's financial constraints.
In March 2024, Biden <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/38012479/biden-cracks-joke-about-boeing-made-air-force-one-i-dont-sit-by-the-door">laughed about Boeing aircraft </a>and said that he does not sit by the door of the Air Force One aircraft. Biden later clarified that he was only kidding. 
President-elect&nbsp;Donald Trump‘s pick to lead the Department of Transportation Sean Duffy said earlier this month Boeing needs "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43020202/trumps-dot-pick-assures-ongoing-tesla-fsd-investigation-and-rigorous-oversight-of-boeing">tough love</a>" as it grapples with recent safety failures
"We have to make sure they are implementing their safety plan," Duffy&nbsp;said, emphasizing his commitment to working with the Federal Aviation Administration to restore global confidence in the aircraft manufacturer.

Flying Oval Office: Inside the Iconic Air Force One Aircraft That Will Be Used By Donald Trump

Jamie Dimon, the CEO of banking behemoth JPMorgan, has maintained a divergent view about cryptocurrencies.&nbsp;
While he frequently disses Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), the most valued cryptocurrency, he appears to have a favorable view of blockchain technology in general and projects based on smart contracts.
What happened: During an interview with CNBC in January 2023, Dimon made a clear differentiation between the two types of cryptocurrencies.
"There&#8217;s a cryptocurrency which might actually do something. Think of a cryptocurrency that has an embedded smart contract in it and that we can use it to buy and sell real estate and move data. That may have value," the CEO of the world&#8217;s most valuable bank said.&nbsp;

Though Dimon did not identify a specific cryptocurrency, the word &#8220;smart contract&#8221; possibly referred to Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) and blockchains and decentralized applications built on the network.
Smart contracts are self-executing computer programs that facilitate transactions without a central authority. Ethereum is well-known as the largest smart contract-enabled platform.

When Dimon made this assertion, Ethereum traded at $2,531.26 a piece. So, if you invested $1000, you&#8217;d have received 0.3950 units of ETH.&nbsp;
Today, one Ethereum was exchanging hands at $3,443.36. This meant that the original investment would have turned $1360.33, reflecting a return of 36%.
Why It Matters: Dimon&#8217;s opinions suggested that he supported cryptocurrency projects that have utility and could solve real-world problems, unlike Bitcoin, which is speculative and relies on expectations of long-term value growth.&nbsp;
Dimon <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/42940832/jamie-dimon-says-hes-not-against-blockchains-but-trades-guns-on-bitcoin-again-it-has-no-intrinsic-value-i-just-dont-feel-great-about">reaffirmed this attitude</a> earlier this month, stating that blockchains will have long-term use. In the same breath, he linked Bitcoin with illicit activities like s&#x2A;x trafficking and money laundering.
Interestingly, JPMorgan has invested in Ethereum exchange-traded funds, with a significant stake in Grayscale Ethereum Trust ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETHE#NYSE">ETHE</a>) and its miniature version, Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETH#NYSE">ETH</a>).
Price Action: At the time of writing, Ethereum was exchanging hands at $3,422.62, up 4.43% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

(<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/HLLY/">HLLY</a>) operates as a designer, manufacturer, and marketer of automotive aftermarket products for car and truck enthusiasts internationally.
