Hilton Worldwide Holdings's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>) short percent of float has risen 13.01% since its last report.

Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 4.39 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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Hilton Worldwide Holdings 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 Hilton Worldwide Holdings'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>, Hilton Worldwide Holdings's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.95%, 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>

$100 Invested In Hilton Worldwide Holdings 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>) is currently in its 17th phase of the 18-phase Adhishthana Cycle. While the stock&#8217;s broader structure still holds bullish potential, current positioning likely suggests a bearish move before the final rally unfolds. Here's a breakdown of what lies ahead for HLT according to the Adhishthana Principles.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">HLT's Guna Triads and Their Implications</h3>
The Adhishthana Prinicples outline that Phases 14, 15, and 16 together form what's called the Guna Triads, a crucial segment that determines the nature of Phase 18. When these phases are driven by bullish strength (Satoguna), a clean upward move is likely in Phase 18. However, if they end with bearish energy (Tamoguna), the final phase typically opens with what's referred to as a "death move."
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1200" height="537" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/26094414/HLT-Adhishthana.png" alt="Fig.1 HLT Guna Triads (Source: Adhishthana.com)" class="wp-image-14919" style="width:637px;height:auto" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/26094414/HLT-Adhishthana.png 1200w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/26094414/HLT-Adhishthana-300x134.png 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/26094414/HLT-Adhishthana-1024x458.png 1024w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/26094414/HLT-Adhishthana-768x344.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Fig.1 HLT&#8217;s Guna Triads (Source: Adhishthana.com)</figcaption></figure>
In HLT's case, Phases 14 and 15 were both driven by mild Satoguna, with rallies of roughly 23% and 26%, respectively. But Phase 16 introduced a severe Tamoguna, pushing the stock down nearly 28%. This change in energy marks a sharp departure from the ideal path toward a clean Nirvana move.
Quoting from my book, Adhishthana: The Principles That Govern Wealth, Time &amp; Tragedy:
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">"If the Gūna Triad concludes with a strong Tamoguna in C16, C18 will begin with a decisive death move."
</blockquote>
Given this setup, Phase 18 for HLT is expected to begin with a significant bearish move before any substantial upside can materialize.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Outlook for Phase 18: A Final Shakeout Before Nirvana</h3>
HLT is currently in Phase 17, which is generally considered a no-action phase within the Adhishthana framework. This phase is marked by low conviction. It continues until November 9, 2025.&nbsp;
Once the stock transitions into Phase 18 on November 10, 2025, the framework suggests a bearish &#8220;death move&#8221; will likely begin. This move is expected to unfold between 10 November 2025 and 10 May 2026, during which the stock could experience a sharp correction driven by residual Tamoguna.
Only after this death move concludes is the stock expected to stabilize and begin its final rally, potentially leading to new all-time highs. This Satoguna-driven rebound typically represents the last major opportunity for investors to capture upside before the cycle resets.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Investor Takeaway for HLT: Stay Patient</h3>
Despite HLT's overall bullish long-term structure, the near-term outlook remains weak. The presence of a strong Tamoguna in the Guna Triads, along with the inertia of Phase 17, indicates that a breakdown is more likely than a breakout in the coming months. The best course of action is to remain on the sidelines until the death move in Phase 18 is complete. A more favorable risk-reward setup will likely emerge sometime after May 2026, once the final phase's early turbulence has passed.

$1000 Invested In This Stock 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Bank of America Securities offered a cross-sector analysis of the leisure consumer space on Thursday, outlining recent performance <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">trends across several key segments.</a>
The firm notes that while trends vary by category, segments like cruises and premium travel continue to show steady performance, whereas more value-focused areas are facing weakness.
In the lodging sector, BofA notes that aggregated credit and debit card data for April spending showed a 3% year-over-year decline, in line with March figures.
The firm also sees weakness in its Las Vegas room rate survey, with forward rates down 11%.

Analysts suggest that BofA's card data skews toward leisure spending and aligns with commentary from Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>), Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/H#NYSE">H</a>), and Marriott International (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAR#NASDAQ">MAR</a>), all of which noted softer low-end RevPAR trends.
In the timeshare segment, performance remains steady despite broader uncertainty.
On the ski front, Vail Resorts, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTN#NYSE">MTN</a>) reported a 3% drop in ski visits this season, underperforming the overall industry, which was up 2%. The lag may be linked to softer non-pass lift ticket sales, which are typically booked during the season and carry a higher price.
Looking ahead to next season, while the number of passes sold is down, total dollars collected are up through April 20. BofA adds that Memorial Day is typically a key trigger for pass sales, but an uptick in web traffic has yet to materialize.
For cruise, BofA notes that based on aggregated monthly debit and credit card data, spending has slowed from the strong double-digit growth seen late last year to flat year-over-year in April.
While some of this decline may be attributed to the timing of Easter, economic uncertainty over the past few months has also likely played a role.
Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NCLH#NYSE">NCLH</a>) specifically flagged a slowdown in booking activity, especially for longer European sailings. Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>) kept its full-year 2025 net yield guidance unchanged, breaking from the usual pattern of upward revisions.
Overall, cruise operators remain well booked for 2025 and still have time to secure additional bookings for 2026 as the year progresses, BofA notes.

In the current market session, Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>) stock price is at $246.07, after a 0.28% drop. However, over the past month, the company's stock spiked by 12.03%, and in the past year, by 20.92%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>Hilton Worldwide Holdings P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 30.15 in the Hotels, Restaurants &amp; Leisure industry, Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 38.98. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747933259_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
