<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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Live Nation Entertainment has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Live Nation Entertainment'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>, Live Nation Entertainment's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.07%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

ExxonMobil Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) may be pumping out oil, but its stock chart has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/oil">hit a dry spell</a>. 
What Happened: ExxonMobil stock is about to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/death-cross">form a death cross</a> — a bearish technical indicator where the 50-day moving average falls below the 200-day moving average.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent122724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="812" height="556" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/27113518/XOM-Death-Cross.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-709491" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/27113518/XOM-Death-Cross.jpg 812w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/27113518/XOM-Death-Cross-300x205.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/27113518/XOM-Death-Cross-768x526.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 812px) 100vw, 812px" /></a></figure>
<a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent122724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Chart created using Benzinga Pro</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Slippery Slope For XOM Stock</h2>
The numbers don't lie: Exxon's stock price of $106.49 is firmly below its 20-day ($111.37), 50-day ($116.32), and 200-day ($116.24) simple moving averages. 
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator at a negative 2.89 screams bearish, while a Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 23.54 suggests the stock is oversold.
For optimists, the oversold RSI could hint at a potential rebound. But with the broader trend signaling bearish momentum, a quick turnaround might require more than geopolitical jitters or OPEC decisions.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Europe: No Love Lost For Exxon</h2>
Exxon's President for Europe, Philippe Ducom, didn't mince words when he<a href="https://fortune.com/2024/12/27/the-crisis-that-explains-why-exxon-is-ignoring-europe/"> labeled</a> Europe's competitiveness as being "in a crisis." With decarbonization investments largely bypassing Europe in favor of U.S. projects, the company is focusing on regions with fewer regulatory hurdles.
Despite investing $20 billion globally in clean energy initiatives by 2027, Exxon isn't planning a major European pivot. Instead, its future bets are in places like Texas, where clean hydrogen and lithium projects are underway.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Exploring New Frontiers</h2>
Exxon's exploration efforts continue in Guyana's Stabroek Block, with the Haimara-3 well appraising its 2019 gas discovery. While oil remains a priority, the company is increasingly evaluating the potential for standalone gas development in Guyana, potentially setting the stage for new revenue streams in 2025.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Outlook: Drilling For Optimism?</h2>
ExxonMobil's death cross doesn't mean it's game over, but the bearish signals are piling up. With regulatory challenges in Europe and volatile oil prices, XOM stock faces strong headwinds.
Investors hoping for a bounce might want to watch geopolitical developments and the company's U.S. clean energy plays closely.

10 Information Technology Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Tesla shares are trading lower amid broader market weakness.

South Korea&#8217;s opposition-controlled National Assembly voted to impeach acting President Han Duck-soo on Friday, only two weeks after impeaching<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42702766/us-stocks-open-lower-nasdaq-down-over-1"> President Yoon Suk Yeol. </a>
South Korean stocks listed in the U.S. have faced significant volatility due to the recent political turmoil. The iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWY#NYSE">EWY</a>), which tracks over 90 large and mid-sized South Korean companies, tumbled as much as 7% earlier in December to hit a 52-week low amid the political crisis. 
Shares of Coupang, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPNG#NYSE">CPNG</a>), South Korea's largest e-commerce platform, have fallen more than 12% over the past month. KB Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KB#NYSE">KB</a>), one of the country's largest financial institutions, is down by more than 9% over the same period. 
South Korea's currency has fallen amid the uncertainty to lows against the U.S. dollar not reached since the global financial crisis 15 years ago. 
The current political crisis began on Dec. 3 when President Yoon declared martial law, leading to his impeachment on Dec. 14. Prime Minister Han then assumed the role of acting president. 
The impeachment of acting President Han on Friday came after he refused to appoint three judges to the Constitutional Court which casts the final vote on presidential impeachments in the country.&nbsp;

Friday's impeachment of President Han "suggests to the world the possibility that Korea's political unrest could be prolonged and worsen," Jeong Hoiok, a professor of political science at Myoungji University in Seoul, told the New York Times in an email.&nbsp;
The second impeachment could cause "significant harm to the diplomacy and economic status that Korea has built so far," Hoiok added.&nbsp;
What's Next: Friday's impeachment of acting President Han leaves the country without its top two officials and puts Finance Minister Choi Sang-mok next in line to assume the acting presidency.&nbsp;
"The most important thing right now is to minimize the confusion in state affairs," Mr. Choi said. "The government will do its best to stabilize them."
