<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.

The Dow Jones outperformed, while tech-heavy indexes like the Nasdaq 100 and S&amp;P 500 lagged under pressure from Alphabet&#8217;s sharp decline. Sector performance was positive overall, with modest gains led by financials.
In commodities, U.S. natural gas prices at the Henry Hub surged over 5% to $3.640 per million British units, driven by recovering feedgas flows to Freeport LNG and forecasts for early-season heat boosting demand.

How Do Investors Really Feel About Planet Fitness?

On CNBC's &#8220;Mad Money Lightning Round,&#8221; Jim Cramer said no to Ardmore Shipping Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASC#NYSE">ASC</a>). &#8220;I don't like the situation because a lot of what is carried is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ASC/earnings">tariffed,&#8221; he added</a>.
On Feb. 19, Ardmore Shipping posted better-than-expected earnings and sales results for its fourth quarter.
&#8220;It's a big international, and right now, big internationals are really frowned upon,&#8221; Cramer said when asked about 3M Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMM#NYSE">MMM</a>). &#8220;If you can own it through the cycle, again, I think it is a good situation.&#8221;
On Monday, Citigroup analyst Andrew Kaplowitz maintained 3M with a Neutral rating and lowered the price target from $152 to $142.
Cramer said Planet Fitness, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLNT#NYSE">PLNT</a>) is doing better than expected. &#8220;I think you have a winner.&#8221;
Guggenheim analyst John Heinbockel supported his view on Tuesday, maintaining Planet Fitness as a Buy and raising the price target from $105 to $110.
When asked about Powell Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/POWL#NASDAQ">POWL</a>), he said, &#8220;If you're willing to hold on for the next cycle, it's fine. But I've got to tell you, it's considered to be a data center play, and people think that data centers are slowing down, and that's the case with Powell Industries too.&#8221;
On the earnings front, Powell Industries reported quarterly earnings of $2.86 per share on Feb. 6, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $2.61 per share. The company also reported quarterly sales of $241.43 million, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $232.62 million.

Guggenheim Maintains Buy on Planet Fitness, Raises Price Target to $110

BofA Securities analyst Alexander Perry today writes about the prospects of wellness companies and how prioritizing healthy ways and increased wellness spending will bode for the companies&#8217; stocks.
Younger generations, particularly Gen Z and millennials, are embracing healthier lifestyles, boosting wellness stocks, said the analyst.
This shift is evident in rising spending on fitness, activity-based leisure, and wellness products. Key trends include a surge in gym memberships, with Bank of America data showing fitness-related spending at a 19-month high.
Additionally, leisure activities like pickleball are gaining popularity, and interest in healthy eating, recovery, and non-alcoholic beverages continues to grow, the analyst noted.
Bank of America card data shows fitness center spending rose 7% year-over-year in February, marking the highest increase in 19 months.

While all generations increased spending, Gen Z and millennials allocate a significantly higher portion of their budgets to fitness.
Gen Z households spend 2.8 times more than baby boomers on fitness, while millennials lead total spending, holding over 30% share. Higher-income consumers continue to drive this growth.
The wellness sector continues to gain traction, with healthy eating, recovery, and anti-aging trends driving growth. Non-alcoholic beer and seltzer spending has outpaced alcoholic alternatives by 28pts since 2021, while fitness club foot traffic has surpassed bars and pubs by 22pts.
Interest in cold plunges and red light therapy is rising, and pickleball participation has surged 46% year-over-year, reaching 20 million players, opined the analyst. The analyst&#8217;s top wellness picks are LTH, PLNT, &amp; SN.
The analyst raised the price forecast for Life Time Group Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LTH#NYSE">LTH</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/lth/analyst-ratings">to $45 from $40</a>, reflecting its pricing power and strong membership demand.
The company is strategically positioned to benefit from rising wellness trends, including the expansion of pickleball and cold plunge offerings.

SharkNinja, Inc.

SN (<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SN/analyst-ratings">$140 price forecast</a>) is the analyst&#8217;s top wellness discretionary products pick.
