<h3>Comparing Energy Transfer P/E Against Its 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 75.97 in the Oil, Gas &amp; Consumable Fuels industry, Energy Transfer Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 13.24.

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.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1748876452_0.png" alt="debt to equity" />
The debt-to-equity (D/E) ratio provides insights into the proportion of debt a company has in relation to its equity and asset value.
Considering the debt-to-equity ratio in industry comparisons allows for a concise evaluation of a company's financial health and risk profile, aiding in informed decision-making.
By evaluating NVIDIA against its top 4 peers in terms of the Debt-to-Equity ratio, the following observations arise:
<ul>
<li>
NVIDIA demonstrates a stronger financial position compared to its top 4 peers in the sector.
</li>
<li>
With a lower debt-to-equity ratio of 0.12, the company relies less on debt financing and maintains a healthier balance between debt and equity, which can be viewed positively by investors.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Key Takeaways</h3>
For NVIDIA, the PE ratio is low compared to peers, indicating potential undervaluation. The high PB and PS ratios suggest strong market sentiment and revenue multiples. The high ROE reflects efficient use of shareholder equity, while low EBITDA and gross profit may indicate operational challenges. The high revenue growth rate signals strong sales performance relative to industry peers in the Semiconductors &amp; Semiconductor Equipment sector.

Exploring The Competitive Space: NVIDIA Versus Industry Peers In Semiconductors &amp; Semiconductor Equipment

Cactus Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHD#NYSE">WHD</a>) will become the majority owner of a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/g45719936/baker-hughes-cactus-create-joint-venture-for-surface-pressure-control-services" rel="noreferrer noopener">new joint venture</a> with Baker Hughes Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BKR#NASDAQ">BKR</a>), which will take control of BKR&#8217;s Surface Pressure Control (SPC) business. The agreement, announced Monday, marks a strategic realignment as both companies look to expand their global oilfield equipment footprint.
Baker Hughes will retain a 35% stake, while Cactus <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/b45719934/cactus-announces-agreement-to-acquire-65-controlling-interest-in-baker-hughes-surface-pressure-con" rel="noreferrer noopener">will acquire 65%</a> and operational control. The venture, which will function separately from Cactus&#8217; existing pressure control division, will focus on supplying wellhead and production tree systems to international markets.
The move supports Baker Hughes&#8217; efforts to streamline its portfolio and allocate capital to higher-return segments. CEO Lorenzo Simonelli said the deal helps sharpen the company&#8217;s strategic focus while ensuring continuity for SPC clients. He added that the partnership brings together Cactus&#8217;s agility and Baker Hughes&#8217; global scale to boost innovation in well-controlled systems.

Cactus CEO Scott Bender highlighted the value of SPC&#8217;s global reach, with around 85% of its revenue tied to the Middle East. The acquisition reduces Cactus&#8217;s exposure to the U.S. market and adds a $600 million order backlog, providing strong revenue visibility and cash flow stability.
The $530 million joint venture values Cactus&#8217; 65% share at $344.5 million. The company intends to fund the deal using existing cash and may tap its unused $225 million credit facility. The agreement includes an option for Cactus to buy the remaining 35% after two years. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2025.
The company had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/b45121011/cactus-announces-first-quarter-2025-results">cash and equivalents</a> of $347.7 million, with no bank debt outstanding as of March 31, 2025.

Cactus Takes Majority Stake In Baker Hughes' SPC For Global Reach

President Donald Trump had promised a manufacturing renaissance, but after a hopeful start to his new term, sentiment in the sector is now sliding fast, with data showing another contraction in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">factory activity in May.</a>
The Institute for Supply Management's Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index edged down to 48.5% in May from 48.7% in April, signaling the fastest pace of contraction since late 2024.
The outcome surprised economists, who expected a reading of 49.5%. It underscores persistent weakness in industrial production just months after a brief February rebound.
&#8220;In May, U.S. manufacturing activity slipped further into contraction after expanding only marginally in February,&#8221; said Susan Spence, chair of the ISM Manufacturing Business Survey Committee. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Stubborn Inflation On The Input Side As Tariffs Bite</h3>
Even as output softens, cost pressures are refusing to ease. The Prices Index remained in increasing territory at 69.4%, just slightly below April's 69.8%, and still at levels not seen in three years. That reflects ongoing supply chain bottlenecks, port delays, and the lingering effects of tariffs.
Inventories have also swung into contraction, while supplier deliveries remain sluggish. The Imports Index plunged by 7.2 points, showing a sharp decline in inbound goods, and hinting at weakened demand or procurement challenges linked to evolving trade policies.
New orders continued to shrink for the fourth month in a row, registering 47.6%, though slightly better than April's 47.2%. Meanwhile, the Backlog of Orders Index showed some recovery from 43.7% to 47.1%, though it remains in contraction territory.
Despite a slight increase in the Employment Index from 46.5% to 46.8%, manufacturing jobs are still shrinking. Companies are cutting headcounts, often favoring layoffs over attrition for quicker cost reduction.
In the words of a transportation equipment executive, "There is continued softening of demand in the commercial vehicle market, primarily related to higher prices and economic uncertainty." 
The respondent added &#8220;the impact of ever-changing trade policies of the current administration has wreaked havoc on suppliers' ability to react and remain profitable.&#8221;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reactions: Dollar Drops, Bond Yields Rise</h3>
The U.S. dollar index, tracked by Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>), fell to 98.7 levels during Monday&#8217;s morning trading in New York, its lowest since April 23, as traders weigh weaker economic momentum.
Meanwhile, long-duration bonds sold off, with yields on the 30-year Treasury note climbing 5 basis points to 4.97%. The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) dropped 1.2%, as concerns over U.S. debt trajectory persist. 
Equity markets also started the week on a downbeat tone. The S&amp;P 500 index slid 0.5%, reflecting concerns that persistent cost inflation could squeeze corporate margins further.
