Wall Street slumped into negative territory late in the week as renewed fears over inflation and trade <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">tariffs eroded risk appetite. </a>
The first warning sign came from the University of Michigan's consumer sentiment survey, which revealed an "unusually large" spike in inflation expectations. The one-year inflation outlook surged by a full percentage point to 4.3%, marking its highest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43564020/consumer-sentiment-sinks-economist-flags-unusually-large-rise-in-inflation-perception">level since November 2023. </a>
Investor uncertainty grew following President Donald Trump's announcement that &#8216;reciprocal tariffs&#8217; would take effect next week. Trump is expected to sign new executive orders at 2:00 p.m. Friday.
On the macro front, February&#8217;s jobs report revealed a mixed outcome, with employment growth slowing down more than expected, yet unemployment fell more than expected, and wages surged more than expected.
Market reaction was swift. The S&amp;P 500 fell 0.6%, erasing its weekly gains, while the Nasdaq 100 dropped 0.9% by 1:00 p.m. trading in New York. 
The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped into negative territory for the week, putting its three-week winning streak at risk. Small-cap stocks underperformed, with the Russell 2000 sinking 1.3%. 
Stock-wise, Uber Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NASDAQ">UBER</a>) skyrocketed by 9.5%, extending its 8.6% rally from the previous session, after hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman revealed a stake of 30.3 million shares in the ride-hailing giant.
In currency and bond markets, the U.S. dollar index – tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>) – rallied following the tariff headlines, while Treasury yields climbed higher. The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) dropped 0.8%, reflecting renewed pressure on long-duration bonds. 
Gold took a breather, retreating under pressure from a stronger dollar. Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) erased early session gains, slipping from an intraday high of $100,000 to $97,500.

The adjusted EBITDA attributable to PAA fell 1% Y/Y to $729 million. The Crude Oil Segment Adjusted EBITDA rose 1% Y/Y to $569 million on higher tariff volumes, escalations, and contributions from acquisitions.
NGL segment Adjusted EBITDA fell&nbsp;9%&nbsp;YoY to&nbsp;$154 million&nbsp;due to lower weighted average frac spreads.
The company ended the year with a 3.0x leverage ratio. PAA&#8217;s operating cash flow for the year was&nbsp;$2.49 billion&nbsp;compared to&nbsp;$2.73 billion. Adjusted free cash flow was&nbsp;$1.25 billion in the year.
2025 Outlook: Plains All American sees adjusted EBITDA attributable to PAA of&nbsp;$2.80 billion &#8211; $2.95 billion, with <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">adjusted free cash flow of $1.15 billion</a>. This includes a reduction of around $580 million due to previously announced bolt-on transactions completed in the first quarter.
As announced earlier, the company disclosed distribution increase of $0.25 per unit payable February 14, 2025, representing a 20% aggregate increase in the annualized distribution vs.2024 levels, leading to new <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42864671" rel="noreferrer noopener">annual distribution of $1.52 per unit.</a>
Plains All American expects the leverage ratio to be at or below the low end of the leverage target range of 3.25x to 3.75x.
The company targets growth capital of around $400 million and maintenance capital of about $240 million, net to PAA.
Willie Chiang, Chairman and CEO of Plains said, &#8220;We remain confident entering 2025, with strong operational momentum and focus on executing our efficient growth strategy. Our strong performance and positive outlook combined with the contribution from recent bolt-on acquisitions continues driving meaningful cash flow and underpins increasing returns to unitholders all while maintaining capital discipline and financial flexibility.&#8221;

Insights From Analysts
Sonu Varghese, VP global Macro Strategist at Carson Global, allayed concerns that the U.S. government jobs cut undertaken by Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will hamper the labor market.
"Irrespective of what happens, or does not happen, the turnover in federal government payrolls is going to be tiny compared to what's happening in the overall labor market," he said.
He added that even if the Trump administration laid off everyone except those in Veteran Affairs and crucial defense-related areas, the churn would still be 1.2 million workers – less than an average of 3.4 million workers who quit jobs every month during the fourth quarter.

Top Wall Street Forecasters Revamp Plains All American Pipeline Price Expectations Ahead Of Q4 Earnings

The company recently reported that it has 14.65 million shares sold short, which is 3.15% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<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.

<h3>Comparing Plains All American'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://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Plains All American's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.54%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

In the current session, the stock is trading at $20.83, after a 1.26% spike. Over the past month, Plains All American Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PAA#NASDAQ">PAA</a>) stock increased by 23.69%, and in the past year, by 29.86%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<h3>Plains All American P/E Compared to Competitors</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 32.73 in the Oil, Gas &amp; Consumable Fuels industry, Plains All American Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 18.2. 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/2025/1737569711_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.

<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.
