WHARF REAL ESTATE U/ADR by Wharf Real Estate Investment Co Ltd.

Industry checks revealed that, according to Goldman Sachs, Whirlpool Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHR#NYSE">WHR</a>) offered the lowest discounts around Memorial Day.
The Whirlpool Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/594d093f988ca8000150db5a/susan-maklari">Analyst Susan Maklari</a> maintained a Buy rating and price target of $100.
The Whirlpool Thesis: The recently announced tariffs have raised appliance prices across the industry, but higher promotions are offset some of this, Maklari said in the note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
She added that the average discount, which stood at 24%, was higher by 124 basis points (bps) compared to last year and Presidents' Day.
Maklari stated that LG Electronics (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LGEJY#OTC">LGEJY</a>) was the most promotional, at 28%, while Whirlpool was the least, at 19%, down 325bps year-on-year.
Demand will likely remain depressed in the near term due to broader macro volatility. "That said, we expect net pricing to be a tailwind to Whirlpool's margins this year with stability in raw materials furthering our confidence," she further wrote.
WHR Price Action: At the time of publication on Wednesday, shares of Whirlpool had risen by 0.41% to $80.00.

Shares of companies within the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading higher after the US and China agreed to a temporary reduction in most tariffs on each other's goods. This could alleviate supply chain uncertainty in the sector.

'Trump Administration Plans To End Energy Star Program For Home Appliances' - Washington Post

JPMorgan analyst Michael Rehaut on Sunday reiterated a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WHR/analyst-ratings">Neutral rating </a>on the shares of Whirlpool Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHR#NYSE">WHR</a>) and lowered the price forecast from $109 to $89.
First-quarter <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n44964129/whirlpool-expands-margins-in-first-quarter-full-year-guidance-unchanged">sales declined 2% organically</a>, missing expectations, while margins fell short due to North American weakness and increased Asian imports ahead of tariffs.
Latin America sales fell 12%, while Asia posted strong 12% growth, driven by market share gains. Small domestic appliance sales rose 8%, supported by new products and a growing direct-to-consumer presence.
The company posted first-quarter operating margins of 5.9%, improving 160 basis points year-over-year but falling short of the 6.2% estimate. Gains stemmed from positive price/mix and cost efficiencies, partly offset by currency headwinds and increased investments.

Following its first-quarter earnings call, Whirlpool reaffirmed its 2025 guidance, projecting operating EPS of $10, 3% organic sales growth and 100 basis points of core margin expansion.
The company expects to counter $400 million in tariff pressures mainly through pricing actions, cost cuts, and supply chain adjustments. 
Despite ongoing macroeconomic challenges and softening consumer confidence, WHR forecasts 2025 sales of approximately $15.8 billion, driven by new product launches and global strength.
The analyst cut 2025 and 2026 operating EPS estimates to $8.73 and $10.44, respectively, following weaker first-quarter results and updated guidance. The lowered price forecast is based on a reduced EV/EBITDA multiple.
Analyst cited ongoing margin pressures, macroeconomic challenges, tariff risks, and elevated leverage as key concerns for the Neutral rating.
WHR Price Action: Whirlpool shares traded lower by 0.72% at $76.84 at publication Monday.

Earnings Outlook For Whirlpool

Whirlpool's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHR#NYSE">WHR</a>) short percent of float has risen 4.8% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 6.13 million shares sold short, which is 12.67% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 7.91 days to cover their short positions on average.
<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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Whirlpool has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Whirlpool'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://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Whirlpool's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.78%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

How Do Investors Really Feel About Whirlpool?

Shares of homebuilders and household durables stocks are trading lower amid an overall market reversal following Wednesday's surge.

BofA Securities analyst Rafe Jadrosich writes that the building product companies may encounter significant headwinds from tariffs, though the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bofa-securities" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">full impact remains uncertain</a>.
Notably, last week, the Trump administration proposed steep new tariffs on several countries, while maintaining current rates for USMCA-<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44589523/trumps-liberation-day-tariff-plan-could-ignite-global-trade-shakeup-betting-markets-price-in-the-pain" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">compliant goods from Mexico and Canada</a>.
The analyst writes that this announcement poses risks for plumbing firms such as Fortune Brands Innovations, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FBIN#NYSE">FBIN</a>) and Masco Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAS#NYSE">MAS</a>) because they&#8217;ve moved production to Southeast Asia and still maintain exposure to China.
Mohawk Industries, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MHK#NYSE">MHK</a>) and Whirlpool Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHR#NYSE">WHR</a>) may be better positioned due to their larger U.S. manufacturing footprint, though they still risk a demand decline in a soft economic environment, adds the analyst.
The analyst estimates an unmitigated 20% hit to EPS for the companies. While pricing could help offset some of the pressure, the broader macroeconomic environment is already tough, adds the analyst.
Jadrosich says that Armstrong World Industries Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AWI#NYSE">AWI</a>) and Owens Corning Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OC#NYSE">OC</a>) are relatively well-positioned to navigate the potential challenges posed by tariffs.
For Armstrong World Industries, Jadrosich notes shares fell 10% over the past three trading days, though there is an estimate of an EPS impact of under 1% due to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/awi/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">its U.S. manufacturing base</a>.
The company has strong pricing power and a focus on ceiling tile replacements to support resilience, adds the analyst.
The analyst says Mohawk Industries&#8217; stock dropped 13%, but is relatively <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MHK/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">well positioned versus competitors</a>.
Jadrosich writes that luxury vinyl tile (LVT) competitors may need to raise prices by 20%+ to hold margin margins versus Mohawk Industries&#8217; increase of 1%–2%.
For Owens Corning, the analyst writes that the company&#8217;s roofing (60% of EBITDA), which is domestically produced and linked to replacement demand, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/oc/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">could gain from lower asphalt prices</a>.

What Building Product Companies Are Better Positioned During Tariff Turbulence? BofA Securities Weighs In

Major corporations have already begun announcing layoffs on Thursday as President Donald Trump's sweeping new tariff structure is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/04/44630499/trump-auto-tariffs-could-up-car-prices-by-15k-analyst-calls-it-pure-chaos">set to take effect.&nbsp;</a>
What To Know: One of the Big Three automakers, Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), said on Thursday that it will be temporarily laying off 900 workers and pausing production at one assembly plant each in Mexico and Canada.&nbsp;
The move comes after a 25% tariff on all imported vehicles and auto parts went into effect on Thursday. Meanwhile, President Trump introduced a base 10% tariff on all goods coming into the United States and a broad set of reciprocal tariffs targeting several countries on Wednesday.

According to a Reuters report, Stellantis' Windsor Assembly in Canada will be down for two weeks while Toluca Assembly in Mexico, will be down for the month of April.&nbsp;
About 4,500 workers at Windsor will be impacted by the shutdown, while workers at Toluca will continue to report to work and get paid but will not make vehicles.&nbsp;
Stellantis COO Antonio Filosa said the company is &#8220;continuing to assess the medium- and long-term effects of these tariffs on our operations, but also have decided to take some immediate action,&#8221; in a letter sent to employees Thursday morning.&nbsp;
U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called the job cuts at Stellantis "a horrifying consequence of Trump's tariffs" in a social media post.

More Cuts: Whirlpool Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHR#NYSE">WHR</a>) announced on Thursday that it will lay off 651 workers from its manufacturing facility in Amana, Iowa, effective June 1. 
The company released a statement blaming the workforce reduction on slowing consumer demand.&nbsp;
"This is really about aligning to current market conditions driven by consumer demand, particularly as it relates to some of the appliances (refrigeration) made in Amana," Whirlpool's statement said.
Fisher-Price, a subsidiary of Mattel, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAT#NASDAQ">MAT</a>), also laid off up to 15 employees at its headquarters in East Aurora, New York on Thursday, according to<a href="https://buffalonews.com/news/local/business/article_9a3bfd49-4e15-40e5-843f-9ba3afcbd7e3.html"> a report</a> from the Buffalo News.&nbsp;
The company did not confirm the number of affected employees, but a Mattel spokesperson said the cuts are in line with the company&#8217;s Optimizing for Profitable Growth cost savings program.&nbsp;

Schumer Calls Stellantis Layoffs A 'Horrifying Consequence' Of Trump's Tariff Plan

President Donald Trump is set to unveil a sweeping tariff plan — nicknamed &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; — on Wednesday that could lift U.S. trade duties to levels not seen in decades, disrupting global supply chains and jolting financial markets already<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44589523/trumps-liberation-day-tariff-plan-could-ignite-global-trade-shakeup-betting-markets-price-in-the-pain" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> wary of geopolitical risk.</a>
Ahead of the Trump administration&#8217;s April 2 reciprocal <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs" rel="noreferrer noopener">tariffs</a> announcement, BofA Securities examines how building product companies could be impacted.
The U.S. has imposed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44269301/trumps-25-tariffs-on-steel-and-aluminum-imports-take-effect-eu-retaliates-us-steel-nucor-century-aluminum-and-other-domestic-stocks-cheer" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">25% tariff</a> on all steel and aluminum products, including imports from Canada and Mexico. These tariffs took effect on March 4 but are paused until April 2 for goods and services that meet USMCA rules. Additionally, a 20% tariff <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44117288/after-china-mexico-to-hit-back-against-trumps-tariffs-raising-trade-war-risks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">applies to Chinese imports</a>.
In a report on Tuesday, a BofA analyst says China tariffs are a headwind to Masco Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAS#NYSE">MAS</a>) and Fortune Brands Innovations, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FBIN#NYSE">FBIN</a>), but positive for Whirlpool Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHR#NYSE">WHR</a>), due to less exposure versus its peers.
Mohawk Industries Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MHK#NYSE">MHK</a>) would benefit from tariffs on Europe (ceramics) and Vietnam (luxury vinyl tile or LVT). The tariffs for Mexico are a headwind for Whirlpool and Mohawk.
Homebuilders could face headwinds from Canadian lumber tariffs. Manufacturers have announced price hikes to offset the &#8220;dynamic trade policy,&#8221; but the analyst sees a risk that volumes could weaken in a difficult macro backdrop.
BofA analyst writes that U.S. tariffs on China will affect the plumbing industry, including fixtures, valves and rough plumbing.
While some plumbing products are made in China, many components come from other parts of Asia.
Fortune Brands has stated that 50%-60% of its material costs come from outside the U.S., with less than 25% from China. The company aims to reduce that to below 10% by 2025.
Meanwhile, Masco said the latest 10% tariff on Chinese imports could cost the company $45 million annually before any cost-cutting measures.
Rising lumber prices could cut into homebuilders&#8217; profits, the analyst writes. Lumber costs are up 12% this year, and the impact may be felt in the next three to six months. While builders managed price swings in 2021-2022, strong demand increased home prices by about 40%. With weaker demand and more homes on the market, offsetting higher costs may be more difficult now.

President Trump Says Working On Pipeline Held Up By New York To Bring Down Energy Prices; 625M Acres Of Offshore That Had Been Banned Under Biden Will Now Be Unbanned; Going To Get Rid Of Dishwasher, Sink Standards

Whirlpool's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHR#NYSE">WHR</a>) short percent of float has risen 5.32% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 5.53 million shares sold short, which is 11.48% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 5.77 days to cover their short positions on average.
<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>Whirlpool Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1738610112_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Whirlpool has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Whirlpool'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>, Whirlpool's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.84%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

(WHR) - Analyzing Whirlpool's Short Interest

The most oversold stocks in the consumer discretionary sector presents an opportunity to buy into undervalued companies.
The RSI is a momentum indicator, which compares a stock&#8217;s strength on days when prices go up to its strength on days when prices go down. When compared to a stock&#8217;s price action, it can give traders a better sense of how a stock may perform in the short term. An asset is typically considered oversold when the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/rsi">RSI is below 30</a>, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Here's the latest list of major oversold players in this sector, having an RSI near or below 30.

<li>On Jan. 29, Monro reported worse-than-expected third-quarter financial results. Also, the company announced that it is not providing its FY25 financial guidance. &#8220;We drove a sequential improvement in our year-over-year comparable store sales percentage change from the second quarter and returned our business to year-over-year comparable store sales growth in the month of December, when adjusted for a shift in the timing of the Christmas holiday. Importantly, the year-over-year comparable store sales percentage change in both our tire dollar and unit sales improved sequentially from the second quarter and our tire category comped positive in the month of December, when adjusted for the holiday shift, with year-over-year growth in units in the quarter,&#8221; said Mike Broderick, President and Chief Executive Officer. The company's shares lost around 21% over the past month. The company's 52-week low is $18.95.</li>
