<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.

Looking Into MSCI's Recent Short Interest

A landmark study published Tuesday in JAMA Network Open found that both recent and lifetime cannabis use may impair brain function during cognitive tasks, particularly those involving working memory.
The <a href="https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2829657?utm_source=For_The_Media&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=ftm_links&amp;utm_term=012825" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">study</a>, the largest of its kind, examined 1,000 young adults aged 22 to 36 using brain imaging technology. Researchers found that 63% of heavy lifetime cannabis users showed reduced brain activity during a working memory task, while 68% of recent users exhibited a similar decline.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Implications For Memory And Cognitive Performance</h1>
Working memory plays a crucial role in everyday functions, allowing individuals to follow instructions, solve problems and process information efficiently. The decline in brain activity observed in cannabis users correlated with poorer performance on working memory tasks.
&#8220;As cannabis use continues to grow globally, studying its effects on human health has become increasingly important," <a href="https://news.cuanschutz.edu/news-stories/largest-study-ever-done-on-cannabis-and-brain-function-finds-impact-on-working-memory">said</a> lead author Joshua Gowin, Ph.D., an assistant professor of radiology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. "By doing so, we can provide a well-rounded understanding of both the benefits and risks of cannabis use, empowering people to make informed decisions and fully comprehend the potential consequences.&#8221;
A Thursday <a href="https://news.cuanschutz.edu/news-stories/largest-study-ever-done-on-cannabis-and-brain-function-finds-impact-on-working-memory">report</a> by Julia Milzer for the Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus noted that the study categorized participants into three groups: heavy users who had consumed cannabis more than 1,000 times in their lifetime, moderate users who had consumed between 10 and 999 times and those who had used marijuana fewer than 10 times, essentially non-users.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Marijuana's Impact On The Brain</h1>
To assess brain function, researchers conducted MRI scans while participants completed seven cognitive tasks. The tests measured working memory, language skills, motor function, emotional processing, decision-making and social cognition. The latter refers to the processes that influence how people respond to social signals.
The most significant impact was observed in the working memory task, where cannabis users exhibited reduced brain activity in key regions, including the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, dorsomedial prefrontal cortex and anterior insula. These areas are critical for memory, decision-making, attention and emotional regulation.
&#8220;We applied the highest standards to our research, setting rigorous thresholds for statistical significance across all seven cognitive function tests," Gowin said. "While some of the other tasks indicated potential cognitive impairment, only the working memory task showed a statistically significant impact."
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Potential For Cognitive Recovery</h1>
While the study suggests that abstaining from cannabis before performing cognitive tasks may help improve function, Gowin cautioned against stopping abruptly.
&#8220;People need to be aware of their relationship with cannabis since stopping cold turkey could disrupt their cognition," he said. "For example, heavy users may need to be more cautious."
Looking ahead, researchers say even larger, long-term studies are needed to determine whether cannabis directly alters brain function, how long these effects last and how different age groups are affected.

Cannabis Use Reduces Brain Activity In Cognitive Tasks, Largest Study To Date Finds

Wall Street is struggling to find risk-on momentum, with major indexes stuck near the flatline at midday as investors assess the latest earnings reports from mega-cap tech stocks and weaker-than-expected U.S. economic growth in the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43336153/us-economy-grows-below-q4-estimates-as-consumer-spending-hits-7-quarter-high"> final quarter of 2024.</a>
After Tuesday's rally — which followed a selloff triggered by DeepSeek&#8217;s impact earlier in the week — caution has taken hold, signaling the wounds from the downturn are still fresh.
Microsoft Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>) is among the hardest-hit stocks, plunging more than 6%, which could mark its worst daily decline<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43333060/msft-stock-declines-over-4-in-premarket-after-q2-results-ceo-satya-nadella-says-deepseek-has-some-r"> since October 2022</a>.
Despite reporting overall stronger-than-expected earnings, Microsoft&#8217;s cloud segment, Azure, fell short of growth expectations, and the company slightly missed its revenue guidance for the ongoing quarter.
In contrast, Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) climbed 1.7% post-earnings, reaching new all-time highs.
Another major laggard was United Parcel Service Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>), which plummeted 15%, potentially heading for its worst single-day drop <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43335015/ups-q4-earnings-major-customer-volume-cut-raises-jitters-stock-tanks">since going public in 2002</a>.
UPS Chief Financial Officer Brian Dykes revealed during the earnings call the company reached an agreement in principle with Amazon.com (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) to significantly cut the volume of packages it handles for the e-commerce giant, aiming for a 50% reduction by the second half of 2026.
The U.S. dollar and bond yields remained stable following the Federal Reserve's decision Wednesday to keep interest rates unchanged at 4.25%-4.5%.
Among commodities, precious metals stood out, with gold rising 1.4% to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/25/01/43348204/gold-hits-record-high-as-central-banks-ease-stance-5-mining-stocks-rally">new all-time highs </a>and silver climbing 2.4%.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) edged up 1% to around $105,000.

Looking At Bank of America's Recent Unusual Options Activity

Corcept Therapeutics shares are trading higher after Canaccord Genuity raised its price target on the stock from $78 to $130.

GOLD

Shares of gold stocks are trading higher amid a rise in the price of gold.

Goldman Sachs analyst Brooke Roach reiterated a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/VFC/analyst-ratings"> Neutral rating</a> on the shares of VF Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VFC#NYSE">VFC</a>) and raised the price target from $22 to $25.
VFC delivered a broad-based <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43302258/apparel-company-vf-corp-beats-q3-expectations-north-face-climbs-vans-slips">third-quarter beat</a>, and raised its full-year 2025 free cash flow guidance, said the analyst.
However, the company provided a fourth-quarter revenue forecast below consensus, primarily due to wholesale timing shifts and foreign exchange impacts. 
Overall, the analyst remains positive about the company&#8217;s progress with its Reinvent strategy, noting continued improvements in execution during the quarter.
According to the analyst, key highlights from the quarter include, year-over-year revenue growth for the first time in nine quarters, driven by growth across all regions, strong performances from TNF and Timberland, and sequential improvement at Vans with favorable comparisons.
The analyst also highlighted positive year-over-year sell-through for Vans in the U.S. non-value channel during the holiday season, solid gross margin expansion, benefiting from easier comparisons to last year&#8217;s inventory reset, product cost tailwinds, and lower promotional activity.
Greater-than-expected savings in SG&amp;A costs, with management on track to achieve approximately $300 million in SG&amp;A run-rate savings by the end of FY25; and ongoing debt reduction, with the company remaining on track to meet its medium-term leverage target of 2.5x or lower by FY28. 
The analyst views this quarter as a significant indication of early progress with VFC's Reinvent plan, and is optimistic about the business&#8217;s margin trajectory, especially in terms of SG&amp;A.
The analyst is eager to receive a more detailed update on the recent performance and future strategy of each brand during the second segment of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance">company's Investor Day, scheduled for March 6.</a>
Price Action: VFC shares are trading higher by 4.65% at $26.75 at the last check Thursday.

RBC Capital Markets analyst Ken Herbert cut the price forecast for General Dynamics Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>) to $280 from $290, while <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GD/analyst-ratings">reiterating an Sector Perform rating</a>.
On Wednesday, the company reported revenue growth of 14.3% year over year to $13.338 billion, beating the consensus of $12.77 billion and EPS of $4.15 (up 14% <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43305515/general-dynamics-beats-q4-expectations-with-144-billion-contract-backlog">Y/Y), above the consensus of $4.10</a>.
In its conference call, the company said it expects a 2025 effective tax rate of 17.5%. The CEO said Gulfstream deliveries will be around 150 aircraft in 2025.
Also, the company expects 2025 total revenue of $50.3 billion and company-wide&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">EPS to be around $14.80.</a>
The analyst writes that he remains optimistic about the 2025 Gulfstream outlook, however, muted free cash flow and limited margin expansion in defense, coupled with heightened uncertainty in the sector, remains a matter of concern.
In particular, Herbert recognized the execution challenges at Gulfstream but acknowledge the strong business jet demand, reflected in a 1x book-to-bill ratio for fourth-quarter 2024.
Following the company's revised 2025 guidance, the analyst now projects 150 deliveries in 2025 and 160 in 2026.
Additionally, aircraft services could offer upside potential with low double-digit growth, adds the analyst.
Apart from this, the analyst says that the submarine supply chain continues to face significant constraints, leading to persistent margin underperformance.
While revenue growth remains strong, Herbert remain cautious about the pace of margin improvement.
For 2026, the analyst expects overall defense portfolio margins to remain flat at approximately 9.5%, consistent with 2024 levels.
Also, the analyst believes that Trump 2.0 can pose greater risk for the GD defense portfolio outside of Marine.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Global X Funds Global X Defense Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHLD#NYSE">SHLD</a>)and&nbsp;First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund First Trust Indxx Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MISL#NYSE">MISL</a>).

General Dynamics' Growth Vs. Uncertainty: Analyst Flags Margin Challenges And Policy Risks

Goldman Sachs analyst Jerry Revich, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/cat/analyst-ratings">maintaining a Buy rating and $442 price forecast</a>, expressed views on Caterpillar, Inc.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>) mixed fourth quarter FY24 results reported today.
Total sales and revenue for the quarter declined 5% year-over-year to $16.215 billion, missing the consensus of $16.411 billion, while adjusted earnings of $5.14 per share came <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43335504/caterpillar-beats-q4-eps-estimates-but-revenue-disappoints-machinery-energy-transportation-segment-faces-pressure">above the consensus of $4.99</a>.
For 2025,&nbsp;sales are expected to decline ~1%&nbsp;due to unfavorable pricing, with a slight headwind in other income from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance">lower interest income and currency effects</a>.
The analyst writes that the key discussion around the company is whether the 2025 margin outlook represents a cyclical trough following its fourth-quarter results.
The results highlighted positives such as a sharp increase in destocking ($700 million) and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.08x in orders, adds the analyst. 
However, concerns remain over 2025 margin targets, which are approximately 200 basis points below FactSet consensus, and a fourth-quarter EBIT miss—though the latter is seen as less significant given destocking progress, writes the analyst.
Revich says that while he expects to decline due to the reset in 2025 estimates, the peak of destocking headwinds, strong bookings, and effective cost management amid production cuts could support multiple expansion post-earnings.
The analyst estimates EPS of $21.68 for FY25 and $23.33 for FY26.
Price Action: CAT shares are down 4.51% at $375.51 at the last check Thursday.

Caterpillar Has Potential For Multiple Expansion Post Earnings, Goldman Sachs Says

With Microsoft Corp's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) Azure showing signs of slowing, Amazon.com Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) AWS could seize the moment as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">AI demand stays</a> red-hot.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Azure Stumbles, AWS Poised To Shine</h1>
Microsoft's latest earnings report revealed a slight deceleration in Azure's cloud growth, with second-quarter revenue rising 31% year-over-year — just shy of the 32% expected by analysts. AI remains a powerful tailwind, contributing 13% to Azure's growth, but Microsoft cited go-to-market challenges affecting non-AI cloud revenue.
For AWS, that's a potential opening. BofA Securities analyst Justin Post expects Amazon's cloud unit to post a solid 19%-20% growth in the fourth quarter, with the potential for further acceleration in the next quarter. With Amazon's Trainium chips in high demand and infrastructure spending ramping up, AWS could maintain its dominance in AI-driven cloud services.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">AI Investment War Heats Up</h1>
According to Post, Microsoft isn't backing down, planning to pour $80 billion into AI investments in fiscal 2025. The analyst noted that efficiency gains are helping Azure scale, with management pointing to significant price-performance improvements between hardware and software generations. 
However, Post highlighted that capacity constraints may still weigh on the third quarter, potentially giving AWS a window to gain ground.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Amazon's Cloud Edge</h1>
Post also pointed out that, unlike Microsoft, AWS primarily bills in U.S. dollars, insulating it from foreign exchange volatility. That stability, coupled with strong infrastructure demand, positions Amazon well in the AI arms race.
BofA maintains a Buy rating on Amazon, with Post highlighting an attractive risk-reward setup as AI continues to fuel cloud expansion.
With Microsoft facing minor hurdles, AWS could be poised to take full advantage of the next wave of AI-driven growth.
