W&T Offshore shares are trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected Q4 financial results.

U.S. stocks were trading lower on Tuesday following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44103406/us-stocks-futures-tumble-as-traders-await-trumps-congress-address-volatility-is-certainly-being-fed-by-trump-20-moves-says-expert">worst trading session of 2025</a>, as investor anxiety over impending tariffs weighed on sentiment. President Donald Trump stated Monday that negotiations with Canada and Mexico had reached an impasse ahead of Tuesday&#8217;s tariff deadline.
Treasury yields also declined, with the 10-year yield at 4.16%, while markets overwhelmingly expect the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/03/44108079/no-bidders-no-safety-net-is-feds-liquidity-lifeline-drying-up-plus-etfs-to-watch">Federal Reserve</a> to hold interest rates steady in March.

What Historical Data Says: Monday's market drop saw steep declines in the technology, energy and consumer discretionary sectors, making it the second-worst trading day of March on record.
However, per research from George Smith, portfolio strategist for LPL Financial, historical data suggests that such sharp declines have often been followed by stronger-than-average returns.
LPL Financial says that since 1950, the S&amp;P 500 has experienced 608 single-day losses of more than 1.75%, averaging about eight occurrences per year. Despite their unsettling nature, these drops have historically presented buying opportunities.

On average, the S&amp;P 500 has gained 1.5% one month after a 1.75% or greater daily loss, outperforming the historical one-month return of 0.7%. 
The outperformance extends over longer periods, with three-month, six-month, and one-year returns following such declines averaging 3.7%, 6.6%, and 12.2%, respectively—well above the historical averages of 2.2%, 4.5% and 9.2%. This suggests that while volatility remains a concern, past market patterns indicate a likelihood of recovery.
Price Action: As of Tuesday morning, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NASDAQ">SPY</a>) is down 3.6% for the week, trading at $574.54.

This enables Samsung to integrate a powerful AI model in their vRAN software solution, which will be demonstrated at Keysight's booth, during Mobile World Congress 2025 (#5F41 Hall 5). The project is being developed at the AI-RAN Alliance as a work item.
Operators face significant challenges with traditional RAN performance, including limited throughput, high latency, and inefficient resource utilization. In commercial 5G deployments, uplink performance is often a concern, especially at the cell edge where limited user equipment (UE) transmission power affects the base station's received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Conventional channel estimation algorithms struggle in low SNR regions due to excessive noise. AI modeling offers a new approach by enabling precise channel estimation, optimizing resource allocation, and reducing power consumption. This enhances system capacity, improves network efficiency, and delivers superior user experiences.
<a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.keysight.com%2Fus%2Fen%2Fproducts%2Fchannel-emulators.html&amp;esheet=54218577&amp;newsitemid=20250304074308&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Keysight%26%238217%3Bs+Channel+Emulation+Solutions&amp;index=2&amp;md5=25f20cf36c32f63f02060dd1140b6616">Keysight's Channel Emulation Solutions</a> provide channel generation capabilities for a wide variety of channel conditions, along with real-time signal processing and radio frequency (RF) capabilities. Samsung successfully generated advanced AI models for channel estimation in the uplink receiver, resulting in significant gains observed in the lab environment. For example, simulated experiments showed a 30% better cell edge throughput by using an AI model for channel estimation instead of the current static rules-based approach. The performance evaluation of this AI model was conducted using an end-to-end setup that included Samsung's radio point and a distributed unit (DU) based on the <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.nvidia.com%2Faerial&amp;esheet=54218577&amp;newsitemid=20250304074308&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=NVIDIA&amp;index=3&amp;md5=f9347ce85af1376f412bbb75797014ee">NVIDIA</a><a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.nvidia.com%2Faerial&amp;esheet=54218577&amp;newsitemid=20250304074308&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=AI+Aerial&amp;index=4&amp;md5=23962324fcf1f1b6ee423c5ba030b860"> AI Aerial</a> platform.

Biodesix shares are trading higher after the company reported better-than-expected Q4 financial results.

Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) shares are moving lower on Tuesday after its China-made electric vehicle (EV) sales <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/44105530">dropped in February</a>. 
What To Know: According to data from the China Passenger Car Association, Tesla sold 30,688 China-made EVs in February, down 49.2% compared to last year, per Reuters. 
Furthermore, sales of China-manufactured Model 3 and Model Y vehicles declined by 51.5% month-over-month.
Researcher Troy Teslike, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/03/44069703/tesla-china-wholesale-numbers-are-unimportant-says-researcher-heres-what-matters-more">who follows Tesla&#8217;s</a> delivery and production numbers, believes this data is unimportant. The researcher suggests that export figures alone may not accurately reflect Tesla&#8217;s sales performance. 
Specifically, a decrease in exports doesn&#8217;t necessarily indicate weak sales, as the company might have substantial inventory available. Conversely, high export numbers don&#8217;t guarantee strong sales, since exported vehicles could remain in inventory for months.
Amid a sharp decline in sales of China-made EVs,&nbsp;B of A Securities analyst John Murphy maintained a neutral rating on Tesla and lowered the price target from&nbsp;$490&nbsp;to&nbsp;$380.

Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBA#NASDAQ">WBA</a>) shares are trading higher on Tuesday following a report suggesting that the company is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/44102644">nearing a deal</a> with private-equity firm Sycamore Partners.
What To Know: According to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/deals/walgreens-nears-roughly-10-billion-deal-to-be-go-private-ee07f2fa">The Wall Street Journal</a>, the companies are aiming to finalize the approximately $10 billion deal that would take Walgreens private by Thursday, assuming no unexpected obstacles.
Currently, discussions suggest that Sycamore may pay between $11.30 and $11.40 per share in cash. Additionally, the deal might include contingent value rights, which could enhance the overall value if specific milestones are met.
Sycamore is anticipated to hold on to the main U.S. business, whiling selling off or taking public other parts of the company.
Walgreens would not be Sycamore&#8217;s first time taking a large retail chain off the market. Previously, the private-equity firm purchased Staples in a $6.9 billion deal before splitting the office supply company into separate parts.

MARA Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) and Riot Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIOT#NASDAQ">RIOT</a>) shares are moving lower Tuesday. The Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) miners reported operational updates for February. Here&#8217;s what <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/specialty-etfs/25/03/44092638/bitcoin-mining-etfs-under-pressure-profits-plunge">you need to know</a>.
What To Know: MARA Holdings said it mined 706 bitcoin in February, down about 6% from the 750 bitcoin mined in January. Despite the overall production decrease, bitcoin production per day was up 4% on a month-over-month basis.
&#8220;Blocks won and bitcoin production decreased by&nbsp;6%&nbsp;month-over-month, primarily due to a higher network difficulty level and three fewer operational days,&#8221; said Fred Thiel, chairman and CEO of MARA Holdings.
&#8220;Our energized hashrate was slightly above the prior month, and we are close to finishing construction of a 40-megawatt data center in Ohio where we plan to install over ten thousand S21 Pro immersion miners.&#8221;
MARA said its energized hashrate was 53.7 EH/s as of Feb. 28. The company held a total of 46,374 bitcoin as of the end of the month.

Riot Platforms announced&nbsp;it mined 470 bitcoin in February, down 11% month-over-month from the 527 mined in January.
Riot held a total of 18,692 bitcoin as of the end of February. Riot&#8217;s average deployed hashrate was 33.6 EH/s last month, while its average operational hashrate came in at 29.4 EH/s.
&#8220;Riot mined 470&nbsp;bitcoin&nbsp;in February, with total production impacted by planned maintenance, elevated curtailment driven by higher power prices as a result of colder weather, and a shortened month,&#8221; said Jason Les, CEO of Riot. 
&#8220;In spite of these factors which impacted total production, ongoing improvements in utilization and operational efficiencies across all our facilities meant that&nbsp;bitcoin&nbsp;produced per day declined only&nbsp;1%&nbsp;in February, relative to the prior month.&#8221;
MARA, RIOT Price Action: At the time of publication, <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/mara">MARA Holdings shares</a> were down 3.44% at $13.31, while Riot shares were down 8.17% at $8.12, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>). Super Micro Computer stock surged 43% over the past month, with nearly half of that gain occurring after the company submitted updated and audited financials to the SEC.

<li>YieldMax PLTR Option Income Strategy ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTY#NYSE">PLTY</a>) is up 20.7%: This ETF, which focuses on generating monthly income by writing call options on Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), saw a stellar performance in February.

With an annual yield of 29.52%, this actively managed fund attracted income-seeking investors.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Global X Social Media Index ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOCL#NASDAQ">SOCL</a>) is up 10.45%: The fund provides exposure to social media companies around the world. It follows the Solactive Social Media Total Return Index and charges 0.65% as expense ratio. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>KraneShares Hang Seng TECH Index ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KTEC#NYSE">KTEC</a>) is up 25.4%: China ETFs had a strong run in February, and KTEC was no exception. The excitement surrounding Chinese AI startup DeepSeek as well as policy stimulus from the Chinese government fueled the optimism. Despite escalating trade tensions with the U.S., Chinese tech stocks received a boost, pushing KTEC up by over 29%.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>United States Natural Gas Fund LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNG#NYSE">UNG</a>) is up 22%: A brutal Arctic blast in early February led to a surge in natural gas prices, as freezing temperatures boosted heating demand while simultaneously disrupting production. This created a favorable environment for UNG, which jumped around 22% during the month.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Looking Ahead</h2>
While February was tough for the broader stock market, these ETFs demonstrated resilience and cashed in on unique opportunities. As investors brace for more economic and geopolitical uncertainty in March, keeping an eye on sector-specific trends and alternative investment strategies could prove beneficial.

In the current session, Weatherford International Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFRD#NASDAQ">WFRD</a>) is trading at $56.28, after a 1.19% drop. Over the past month, the stock fell by 16.33%, and in the past year, by 48.37%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1741103157_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Weatherford International P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</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 28.18 in the Energy Equipment &amp; Services industry, Weatherford International Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 8.44. 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/2025/1741103157_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.
