Shares of banks and financial services stocks are higher after the US and China agreed to a temporary reduction in most tariffs on each other's goods. A reduction in tariffs could alleviate macro uncertainty in the lending and deal environment.

Coffeehouse chain, Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>), is making a case for its resilience amid the slowdown, rising recession risks, and global trade uncertainty. 
What Happened: During Tuesday's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45084597/starbucks-misses-q2-earnings-estimates-ceo-says-optimism-has-turned-into-confidence-i-see-more-opportunity-than-i-imagined">second-quarter earnings</a> call, CEO Brian Niccol addressed concerns about the company&#8217;s past underperformance during downturns, calling Starbucks a &#8220;simple, everyday luxury&#8221; that consumers will continue to enjoy regardless of the economic challenges surrounding them.
Niccol acknowledged that economic downturns will affect the business, but emphasized a proactive approach. &#8220;The best way to go after these things is with your best offense,&#8221; he said, adding that for Starbucks, that means becoming &#8220;a great third place,&#8221; which is a welcoming space beyond home and work.

Niccol pointed to Starbucks' &#8220;innovation pipeline&#8221; as a key differentiator, saying that it will &#8220;cut through in any environment.&#8221; As part of that effort, the company has launched an aperitivo menu for the afternoon and rolled out several new products aligned with evolving consumer preferences during the quarter.
Starbucks reported its fifth consecutive quarterly decline in same-store sales on Tuesday, with U.S. sales down 2% and global sales falling 1%. In response, the company is undergoing a broader transformation under an initiative dubbed "Back to Starbucks," aimed at reviving its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42609868/starbucks-workers-plan-strike-in-la-chicago-seattle-on-christmas-eve-amid-holiday-rush">core coffeehouse culture</a>.
Why It Matters: Analysts, however, are skeptical of the company&#8217;s resilience in the face of macro headwinds, with Guggenheim analyst Gregory Francfort stating on Tuesday, that being <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/45087119/analyst-warns-starbucks-faces-growing-risks-from-competition-costs-and-global-tensions">a discretionary purchase</a>, Starbucks can come under pressure if consumer conditions deteriorate.
Others, such as Andy Barish from Jefferies Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>) believe that the <a href="https://benzinga.com/general/restaurants/25/04/45052970/starbucks-q2-earnings-preview-will-results-show-turnaround-progress">company&#8217;s turnaround</a> and recovery will take some time.
The stock came <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44634719/restaurant-stocks-are-getting-cooked-thursday-as-trump-tariffs-rattle-markets">under renewed pressure</a> at the beginning of this month, following President Donald Trump&#8217;s tariffs, given the company&#8217;s outsized exposure to China, with over 7,600 locations in the country.
Price Action: The stock was up 1.13% on Tuesday, but is down 6.51% after-hours, following the company&#8217;s second quarter earnings results on Tuesday evening.

Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) is the latest investment bank to predict a recession for the U.S. economy over the next 12 months, with the odds being raised to 45%, from its previous prediction of 35%. Amidst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44662164/us-stock-futures-slump-following-massive-tariff-induced-selloff-experts-warn-of-a-brewing-great-depression-like-pattern">all this chaos and uncertainty</a>, however, there is a silver lining for the tech giants and their executives.
What Happened: On Sunday night, Goldman Sachs published a note raising its recession probability forecast from 35% to 45%, citing the sharp tightening of financial conditions and a spike in policy uncertainty. Just a month ago, it raised the probability from 20% to 35%, stating that economic fundamentals weren&#8217;t as robust as in the prior years.

The bank now follows JPMorgan Cash &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), which <a href="http://benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645681/jpmorgan-raises-recession-risk-to-60-as-largest-us-tax-hike-in-60-years-hits-global-economy">made a similar prediction last week</a>, hiking the odds of a global recession to 60%.
While none of this sounds good, Jefferies Financial Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>) analysts believe that this, along with the Donald Trump administration&#8217;s tariffs, can be a &#8216;Free Hall Pass&#8217; for tech companies to revamp their financial guidance.
According to the firm&#8217;s lead analyst Brent Thill, companies can use this crisis to aim for &#8216;lower estimates that are more achievable and can help boost investor sentiments and stock performance,&#8217; as <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/tariffs-free-hall-pass-to-reset-big-tech-profit-guidance-2025-4">reported</a> by Business Insider. 
The firm&#8217;s analysts then cut their Price Targets for Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), among 29 leading tech stocks.
Why It Matters: The analysts noted that besides the obvious first and second order impacts of the tariffs, both Meta and Amazon generate significant revenue from Chinese advertisers trying to reach global audiences, which is now under pressure.
However, analysts have asked the tech giants to use this as an opportunity to reset their guidance to move conservative figures, something that better reflects new market realities.

Shares of capital market companies are trading lower as markets react to President Trump's announcement of sweeping tariffs.

Legendary stock picker Warren Buffett has refused to include cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), in his firm Berkshire Hathaway Inc.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) portfolio, but the holding company, interestingly, has exposure to a firm that pitches the apex cryptocurrency as an inflation hedge.
What happened: According to the latest 13F filing, Berkshire Hathaway holds 433,558 shares of financial services company Jefferies Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>), worth nearly $34 million.
The New York City-headquartered firm operates in investment banking and capital markets, and asset management businesses.
Notably, Jefferies holds a sizeable stake in iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>), the world's largest spot exchange-traded Bitcoin fund. Filings with the SEC revealed that Jefferies owned 1,615,731 shares of IBIT, valued at over $85 million.

The investment likely stemmed from its bullish long-term view about the leading digital asset.
Jefferies deemed Bitcoin as a "critical hedge" against fiat debasement and inflation, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/10/05/bitcoin-is-a-critical-hedge-against-currency-debasement-and-return-of-inflation-jefferies-says.html">according </a>to an October 2023 report by CNBC.
The investment bank said Bitcoin's insurance policy narrative gained traction following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/06/32705921/us-banking-crisis-spurs-756-billion-capital-surge-into-cash-funds-says-bank-of-america">U.S. banking crisis</a> earlier in the year, and it recommended a 10% allocation to the asset for U.S. dollar-based long-term global investors.
This optimism sharply contrasted with Buffett&#8217;s dismissive attitude toward Bitcoin. The &#8220;Oracle of Omaha&#8221; called Bitcoin &#8220;probably rat poison squared&#8221; during Berkshire Hathaway&#8217;s annual&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/03/37513063/warren-buffett-says-he-wouldnt-pay-25-for-all-the-bitcoin-in-the-world-he-considers-crypto-rat-poiso" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">shareholder</a>&nbsp;meeting in 2018 and predicted a &#8220;bad ending&#8221; for the cryptocurrency.
Price Action:&nbsp; At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $83,315.66, down 1.03% 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>. Year-to-date, the asset has slid 11.84%.
Shares of Berkshire Hathaway fell 2.09% in after-hours trading, after closing 0.89% higher at 537.72 during Wednesday&#8217;s regular session. Jefferies stock closed 2.99% higher at $55.14.
Berkshire Hathaway stock demonstrated a good momentum and value score as of this writing.

Shares of banks and financial services stocks are trading lower following greater-than-expected inflation data measured through the PCE price index for February, while personal spending missed estimates. Additionally, recent tariff announcements may be weighing on equities.

Jefferies Financial Gr's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>) short percent of float has fallen 19.5% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.22 million shares sold short, which is 1.28% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.0 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>Jefferies Financial Gr Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743177625_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Jefferies Financial Gr has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Jefferies Financial Gr'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>, Jefferies Financial Gr's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.40%, 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>

Earnings Scheduled For March 26, 2025

Oppenheimer analysts Chris Kotowski and Kevin Tripp provided expectations <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/gs/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">on financial stocks for this year</a>.
The analysts write that, at the start of the year, they were optimistic about a significant rebound in M&amp;A and financing activity.
The key factors for a bullish stance at that time included higher demand after relatively quiet M&amp;A years in 2023 and 2024, tightened credit spreads, and peaking interest rates that were stable to lower.
Nevertheless, there has been no clear sign of an M&amp;A rebound so far this year. Disclosed M&amp;A activity is up just 2.4% year-to-date and equity capital markets (ECM) is up 2.7%, adds the analyst.
Also, the analysts are concerned that the current uncertainties around tariffs, fiscal "detox,&#8221; and the disruption of long-standing trade and security arrangements may pause in M&amp;A activity.
Consequently, the analysts slashed the estimates for Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) and Jefferies Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>).
This reflects subdued Dealogic revenue projections and an assumption that investment banking revenues will remain flat for the remaining three quarters of 2025, compared to prior expectation of a return to a normal investment banking &#8220;wallet&#8221; growth <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/jef/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">aligned with GDP, adds the analyst</a>.
Notably, the analysts had earlier set the 2025 investment banking revenue forecasts to increase by 32% (still below 2021 levels) and 14%, respectively.
Also, 2026 estimates are revised assuming the year starts at current levels and ends with a normalized wallet relative to GDP, adds the analyst.
Consequently, they have reduced 2025 and 2026 estimates by 12.5% and 6.9% for Goldman Sachs and 20.7% and 10.5% for Jefferies, respectively.
Apart from this, the analysts downgraded The Carlyle Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CG#NASDAQ">CG</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/cg/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">to Perform from Outperform</a>.
The analysts believe that the company is highly reliant on returning significant capital to LPs to support the next generation of flagship private equity funds.
While CG has several matured investments ready for monetization, this process is likely to be more challenging than initially anticipated, adds the analysts.
