<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 Honda Motor Co 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 Honda Motor Co'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>, Honda Motor Co's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.17%, 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>

How Do Investors Really Feel About Honda Motor Co?

Despite the overvalued nature of the stock based on its price-to-earnings metric, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)&#8217;s CEO, Elon Musk, has defended the company&#8217;s growth, citing its stock prices, shrugging off the fundamental worries surrounding the carmaker as highlighted by experts.
What Happened: During the Qatar Economic Forum on Monday, Musk highlighted that Tesla&#8217;s share price was the measure of its business&#8217;s success. 
&#8220;You can just look at the stock price if you want the best inside information,&#8221; he said as per <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/elon-musk-tells-investors-teslas-stock-price-shows-company-is-in-a-good-place-dont-worry-about-it-143940828.html">a</a> Yahoo Finance report.
&#8220;The stock market analysts have that, and a stock wouldn&#8217;t be trading near all-time highs if it was not, if things weren&#8217;t in good shape. They&#8217;re fine, don&#8217;t worry about it.&#8221;
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>, Tesla shares are trading at a price nearly 158.730 times its 2026 earnings. At the same time, the average forward price-to-earnings of its peers stood at 25.75 times, implying that Tesla was 6.16 times more expensive than its industry's average.
However, Gordon Johnson, the CEO and founder of GLJ Research, countered Musk&#8217;s statement with examples. In an X post, he highlighted that &#8220;If: high stock price = good underlying business fundamentals, then WorldComm + HealthSouth + Enron + Tyco + etc. would never have gone bankrupt.&#8221;
He explained that the stock prices were simply a reflection of a stock&#8217;s demand, which could be influenced by factors like CEO comments and pump-and-dump Wall Street analysts.
Taking a dig at the Federal Reserve and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Johnson further stated that the Fed&#8217;s purchase of Treasuries by printing money was also a reason for the artificially created demand for stocks.
&#8220;Were the Federal Reserve to immediately pull out all the money it printed into existence from COVID, we&#8217;d QUICKLY have REAL price discovery in stocks,&#8221; he warned.

Tesla Is 6X More Expensive Than Its Peers And The Most Overvalued Mag 7 Stock: Gordon Johnson Questions Fundamentals As Elon Musk Shrugs Off Concerns

Honda Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) reportedly announced Tuesday that it will cut investment in electric vehicles amid weakening demand and instead prioritize hybrids, which are gaining popularity with consumers.
CEO Toshihiro Mibe said EVs are expected to account for about 20% of sales by the target year, though he noted market trends remain uncertain. Honda has reduced its planned electrification and software investment by 30% to 7 trillion yen ($48.4 billion), according to <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/japans-honda-scale-back-electric-vehicles-concentrate-hybrids-2025-05-20/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Reuters</a>.
The shift aligns with broader industry trends, as automakers respond to softening EV demand, rising hybrid sales, and relaxed government emissions targets.

Honda plans to launch 13 new hybrid models globally between 2027 and 2031. It offers over a dozen hybrid models worldwide, but only three in the U.S.—the Civic, Accord, and CR-V. A new hybrid system for larger vehicles is also in development, Reuters mentioned.
The company targets hybrid sales of 2.2 million to 2.3 million units by 2030, up from 868,000 in 2024. Total vehicle sales last year reached 3.8 million.
Last week, Honda Motor <a target="_blank" href="https://global.honda/en/investors/library/documents/main/00/teaserItems3/010/linkList/0/link/FYE202503_4Q_financial_result_e.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">forecasted</a> a steep drop in earnings for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, citing industry headwinds and currency pressures.
The company expects sales revenue to fall 6.4% to ¥20.3 trillion. It projects operating profit will drop 58.8% to ¥500 billion. Profit before income taxes will likely decline 62.8% to ¥490 billion.
Net profit is expected to fall 64% to ¥325 billion, with profit attributable to shareholders plunging 70.1% to ¥250 billion.
Honda also said it would halt planned expansion due to fluctuating EV demand and uncertainty over U.S. President Donald Trump&#8217;s proposed tariffs on imported vehicles. CEO Toshihiro Mibe said the rapidly changing automotive landscape requires greater flexibility.
Honda joins other automakers, including Nissan, in scaling back EV plans. Nissan (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANF#OTC">NSANF</a>) recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45316137/nissan-scraps-11-billion-ev-battery-plant-eyes-cost-cuts-to-survive-report" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">canceled</a> a $1.1 billion battery plant in Kyushu, Japan, just months after announcing it.
Price Action: Honda Motor shares are trading higher by 0.44% at $29.40 premarket at the last check on Tuesday.

Honda Motors For FY 2026 Expects Net Profit Of ¥250B And Revenue Of ¥20.3T

Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) reportedly announced Friday that it is scrapping plans to build a $1.1 billion electric vehicle battery plant in Kitakyushu, Japan.
Nissan has canceled plans to build an EV battery plant in Kitakyushu months after signing local agreements. The company cited a review of investments due to weak performance, reported <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Nissan-abandons-plan-for-EV-battery-plant-in-southern-Japan" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nikkie Asia</a>.
Initially unveiled in January, the lithium iron phosphate (LFP) facility was expected to create around 500 jobs with a 153.3 billion yen investment.

Facing sluggish vehicle sales in the U.S. and China, Nissan is scaling back growth plans to stabilize its business. Executive Officer Teiji Hirata said, &#8220;We apologize for this situation arising over such a short period of time. This is the result of a careful review in light of the business environment.&#8221;
Nissan announced that it expects a record net loss of 700–750 billion Japanese Yen ($4.9 billion to $5.3 billion) for fiscal 2025, mainly due to over 500 billion Japanese Yen in asset write-downs and 60 billion Japanese Yen in restructuring costs. In response, it is cutting jobs, closing plants, and reducing output, while CEO Ivan Espinosa pointed to strong cash reserves of 1.5 trillion Yen to support recovery efforts.

<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.

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>, Honda Motor Co's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.11%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

What Does the Market Think About Honda Motor Co?

General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) will continue to produce its Ultium architecture-based EVs like the Chevrolet Equinox at its production facility in Ramos Arizpe, Mexico.
What Happened: GM's director of EV operations in Mexico, Adrián Enciso, has shared that the company will continue producing EVs in Mexico, owing to the success of the vehicles produced at the facility, he <a href="https://www.milenio.com/negocios/gm-armado-autos-electricos-detiene-eu">said</a> to the Mexican Spanish-language newspaper Milenio on Monday.
"At this time, GM has no plans to halt or relocate production of any of our EV models made in Mexico," Enciso said. He also hinted at the possibility of GM building other models like the Chevrolet Spark EV at the facility in the future.
Currently, the Ramos Arizpe facility produces the Chevrolet Blazer EV and the Equinox EV. The facility also produces the Cadillac Optiq, as well as the Honda Motor Co., Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) Prologue, which is based on the same platform as the Equinox EV.
Why It Matters: The news comes amid uncertainty around Donald Trump's auto tariffs, which have caused a lot of uncertainty in the U.S. auto sector. Trump's tariffs have impacted GM, which recently was at risk of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44806252/trump-tariffs-could-put-ford-gm-at-high-risk-of-negative-ratings-report">receiving a negative rating</a> from ratings agency S&amp;P.
According to experts, the tariffs could cost the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44756759/new-research-shows-donald-trumps-25-tariffs-could-cost-auto-companies-108billion-report">auto industry over $108 billion</a>, with Detroit-based manufacturers like GM, Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), and Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) nearly $42 billion.
The administration has been on the receiving end of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44729157/michigan-auto-groups-criticize-trump-for-not-halting-auto-tariffs">criticism from Michigan auto groups</a> for the tariffs. The groups say that Trump's tariffs have resulted in uncertainty for employees as well as supply chains.
However, the Trump administration has indicated it is willing to provide <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44798727/auto-stocks-rise-on-trumps-comments-about-supporting-us-car-companies-whats-going-on">exemptions to some U.S. automakers</a> as they navigate the new tariff environment and make adjustments to the supply chain.&nbsp;
Price Action: GM has experienced a 13.59% YTD decline in value, currently trading for $44.39, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Mexican Economy Minister Marcelo Ebrard said on Tuesday that Honda executives in the country had spoken with the government and said they have no plans to modify their production there.

The sales figures for Q1 2025 for EVs showcase a growth in U.S. EV sales for several manufacturers and paint a strong picture for the domestic EV sector.
What happened: Cox Automotive has published <a href="https://www.coxautoinc.com/market-insights/q1-2025-ev-sales/">a</a> report outlining how the EV sector is performing in the US.

The report also says that roughly 7.5% of new vehicles sold in the US in Q1 2025 were EVs, a 7% year-on-year increase.
Despite experiencing an 8.6% decline in sales when compared to the same time last year, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) still dominates the segment, boasting a 43.5% share in sales.
Elon Musk&#8216;s company was followed by General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) with an 8.9% sales share, including Chevrolet, Cadillac, and GMC.
