<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 Capital One Finl 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 Capital One Finl'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>, Capital One Finl's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.95%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Shares of companies within the broader financial sector are trading higher amid overall market strength following strong September Unemployment Rate and Nonfarm Payrolls data. Also, the dockworkers struck a deal to suspend their strike after they reached a tentative agreement, easing concerns about its potential ramifications.

Historically, investors have bet on the consumer discretionary sector when the Federal Reserve (the Fed) cuts interest rates, as these typically have a positive effect on consumer spending habits through easier and cheaper financing rates. However, this time it&#39;s different, the state of the consumer is not what it used to be before, and that is sending money out of a few stocks in the space and into others.
Stocks in the retail industry, those that are highly dependent on domestic demand and consumer trends, will likely suffer from what&#39;s happening behind the scenes in the economy. Lululemon Athletica Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lulu#NASDAQ">LULU</a>) falls into this category, which is why price action and analyst downgrades have been working against the company lately. To avoid this pitfall, investors can look into those with much more international sales exposure.
A bigger brand like Nike Inc.&nbsp;with a large presence in international markets can help the financials of the business diversify across different trends and cycles. Benefitting from this same trend is Skechers Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/skx#NYSE">SKX</a>) with over a third of its sales exposure being concentrated in European markets. Before investors dig deeper into he divergence between these names, they should understand why domestic markets are seeing lower demand.
<h2>Key Factors Behind the Recent Decline in Consumer Confidence Readings</h2>
Economists can keep thinking in black or white terms when it comes to the consumer, but the reality is that there are many more factors at play, such as psychology. The consumer today has to battle with rising unemployment rates, inflation in items like rent, groceries, and insurance.
The divergence between earning power and inflation has caused one major shift in the financial sector, one that drove Warren Buffett out of consumer credit stocks like Capital One Financial Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cof#NYSE">COF</a>) over the past quarter. Credit card delinquencies are on the rise, and so are car repossession rates in their 23% annual spike.
Ultimately, the personal savings rate ended up negative in recent readings, meaning items like clothing and other discretionary items will likely be first to be put out of the monthly spending budget from consumers. Investors can probably guess what happens next to stocks that rely too much on domestic demand for these products, such as Lululemon.
<h2>The Trends Are Clear for Lululemon: Here Are the Key Details</h2>
Lululemon stock had been an investor favorite since the COVID-19 pandemic, when the Fed cut interest rates to a near historical low, an event that helped Lululemon see better prospects. However, today&#39;s rate cuts come up against the weakening consumer state, which won&#39;t probably have the same effect on the stock as they had a few years ago.
Wall Street analysts know this, and those at Raymond James, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank all downgraded Lululemon stock&#39;s price target over the past month. This shift in sentiment serves as a warning for investors to consider, one that is weighted against these fundamental trends that also work against the stock.
More than that, bearish traders decided to raid the stock recently as well, as Lululemon stock&#39;s short interest rose by as much as 10.8% in the past month, part of a quarterly trend higher. This new sentiment can be seen in the company&#39;s price action lately as well.
Lululemon stock now trades at a low 50% of its 52-week high, meaning a deep bear market in the company&#39;s value perception. The changing sentiment can also be attributed to Wall Street&#39;s earnings per share (EPS) projections for the next 12 months.
Analysts predict that Lululemon will see only $2.85 EPS compared to today&#39;s $3.15, calling for a net decline of 9.5% to bring the bearish thesis home. Despite the sock already trading at a low, investors should consider waiting a bit before forgiving its fall.
<h2>Why Nike and Skechers Are the Better Buys Right Now</h2>
Counting with a much bigger international presence, both Nike and Skechers are able to stay away from the potentially bigger contractions to be seen from the consumer sector in the United States, which is why Wall Street has treated both of them a bit better.
Not to mention, mega investor Bill Ackman recently took advantage of Nike&#39;s sell-off to buy up a sizeable stake in the company, showing investors that value is in Nike rather than Lululemon stock despite both suffering from similar declines. Here&#39;s what Wall Street had to say about Nike.
The consensus price target lies at $96.5 today, calling for up to 8% upside from where the stock trades right now. This is after the double-digit rally that Ackman&#39;s purchase ignited as well. But that&#39;s not all, the Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan decided to boost their holdings by 625.4% in Nike, bringing their net investment to $5.8 million today.
All told, Nike stock now trades at 72% of its 52-week high to be significantly above Lululemon.
Skechers brings a similar thesis to the market, as the stock sits at 92% of its 52-week high to show investors bullish momentum in recent months.
Analysts at Bank of America felt comfortable boosting the stock&#39;s price target up to $81 a share, daring it to rally by as much as 17% from where it trades today and also make a new yearly high. Short sellers are also starting to capitulate in front of this trend, as Skechers stock&#39;s short interest declined by 9.2% in the past month.
With declining short interest and increasing analyst confidence, Skechers appears poised for continued strength. If current trends persist, the stock could soon challenge its previous highs, further supported by strong market sentiment.
Fundamentally, these two have much better upside and safety than Lululemon, which is why investors should consider them as potential buys in the middle of a weakening consumer sentiment reading.

10 Financials Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Consumers are turning more frequently to their 401(k) accounts to pay down <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/news/24/09/40960923/heres-how-much-you-would-have-made-owning-mastercard-stock-in-the-last-10-years">their credit cards</a> as they face higher prices for essentials such as food, gas and electricity, according to a financial planner.
Total credit-card debt in the U.S. reached $1.34 trillion as of June, Federal Reserve data <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/g19/20240909/">showed</a>. In May, credit card balances for consumers between 43 and 58 years old <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/24/05/39059618/this-generation-has-more-credit-card-debt-than-millennials-and-gen-z-5-tips-on-how-to-crawl-out">averaged $9,123</a>.
&#8220;People are facing rising prices and while the rate of inflation has decreased, there is still inflation,&#8221; said Bobbi Rebell, a certified financial planner and finance expert at CardRates.com.
&#8220;Therefore, prices are still high, even though they're not going up as quickly. Life is expensive! People are struggling because they're paying more for everyday expenses like groceries.&#8221;

Turning to 401(k)s to pay those balances has also risen because the government has made it easier to access some money from a 401(k) without penalties, she said.
&#8220;Also, that's where the money is! Because many employers have auto enrollment and employees must opt out, people have more money in their 401(k) account,&#8221; she said.
&#8220;At least with a 401(k) you are paying yourself interest and the rate is usually more affordable than the interest rate of a credit card.&#8221;
Major drawbacks to using a 401(k) to pay down credit cards is that consumers must pay back what they take out before leaving the job that gave them the 401(k). They are also using funds that are meant to be spent in retirement, she said.
&#8220;You are borrowing money from your future.&#8221;

Shares of companies in the broader financial services and banking sectors are trading higher amid overall market strength following the Fed's rate cut, which could drive a rise in spending and lending demand.

Investors are on edge in the lead-up to the Wednesday Federal Open Market Committee interest rate decision that is expected to deliver the first cut to the federal funds rate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40921827/fed-decision-is-here-5-things-investors-need-to-know-ahead-of-wednesdays-pivotal-in">in over four years.</a>
The market is divided on the magnitude of the anticipated rate cut. Traders are assigning a 59% probability to a 50-basis-point cut, while a 41% chance is placed on a more modest 25-basis-point reduction. The size of the rate cut is crucial as it could trigger significant market reactions.
Should the Fed opt for a 50-basis-point cut, it may be perceived as an acknowledgment that interest rates are overly restrictive. This could lead to increased expectations for further rate cuts in the coming months, potentially fueling risk sentiment and driving stock prices higher.
Conversely, a 25-basis-point cut might disappoint investors who are betting on a more aggressive measure.
Since the start of 2022, the S&amp;P 500, tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), has experienced an average move of plus or minus 1.3% during FOMC events, reflecting the market&#8217;s high sensitivity to Fed policy decisions.
Goldman Sachs equity analysts, including John Marshall, analyzed stock movements during the first rate cuts in the previous three Fed easing cycles (Sept. 18, 2007, July 31, 2019 and March 3, 2020).
The data highlights the average moves of several key S&amp;P 500 stocks with liquid options during these periods.

20 S&P 500 Stocks That Move The Most When The Fed Starts Cutting Interest Rates

Stocks held by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/07/39677935/credit-card-debt-rises-as-consumers-face-higher-costs-of-living">consumer-lending firms</a> fell last week after Wall Street executives warned of lower-income borrowers&#8217; struggling to pay bills.
What Happened: Banking executives at a recent Barclays conference in New York noted how delinquencies are on the rise, the Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/americans-credit-debt-spending-interest-rates-f3836f23">reported</a>.
The average interest rate on a credit card as of May was 21.51%, up from around 15% in 2019, Federal Reserve data shows.
About 9.1% of credit card balances turned delinquent over the past 12 months to mark the highest rate in over a decade, according to an August report from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
"What that tells you is if people do get behind on their payments in this environment, it's tougher to get out of them," TD Cowen analyst Moshe Orenbuch said.

Why It Matters: Bread Financial, a credit card company that serves lower-income borrowers, said it expects higher charge-off rates — balances that banks write off as a result of lack of payments — this year.
Late payments and charge-offs on auto loans were higher than expected in July and August as borrowers grapple with the cost of living and a worsening labor market, Ally Financial Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALLY#NYSE">ALLY</a>) CFO Russ Hutchinson said.
This worried investors because car payments are usually the last bills to go delinquent because cars are needed for transportation.
The average interest rate on a 60-month loan for a new car was 8.2% as of May, according to Fed data, up from 5.3% in 2019.&nbsp;
Over the past year, roughly 8% of auto loans turned delinquent, according to the New York Fed, the highest rate in over a decade. 
Price Action: Consumer-lending companies trended upward into Tuesday&#8217;s early afternoon trading.
<ul>
<li>Enova International Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENVA#NYSE">ENVA</a>) rose 3.48% to $83.32</li>

<li>Regional Management Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RM#NYSE">RM</a>) went up 2.4% to $33.25</li>
</ul>
Car-loan providers also rose on Tuesday.

A Closer Look at Capital One Finl's Options Market Dynamics

Consumers&#8217; wallets should get some relief if the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40882613/builders-first-source-other-homebuilder-stocks-rise-with-catalysts-such-as-mortgage"> Federal Reserve lowers rates</a> this week, but it won&#8217;t be a huge help, according to Benjamin Ayers, senior economist with Nationwide Insurance (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NWFAX#NASDAQ">NWFAX</a>).
&#8220;It should put some downward pressure on auto rates, mortgage rates, loan rates, but on the other side of the coin, it should put upward pressure on CD rates and saving rates that you get out there,&#8221; Ayers told Benzinga.
Lowering the Fed interest rate by only 25 or 50 basis points will not mean much for consumers in the short term, he adds.
&#8220;It&#8217;s nice but if you can&#8217;t afford a mortgage at the current level, that&#8217;s not going to change if it goes down by 25 basis points. It&#8217;s more kind of the start of a process,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;Six months, a year, 18 months from now, you&#8217;re going to see much lower rates, and that&#8217;ll really help to juice things, but in the near term, it&#8217;s going to have a pretty negligible impact for most people,&#8221; Ayers says.
A rate cut of 25 or 50 basis points doesn&#8217;t mean rates that affect consumers&#8217; wallets will drop expectedly, said Matt Schulz, LendingTree, Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TREE#NASDAQ">TREE</a>) chief credit analyst.

&#8220;While lower rates are certainly a good thing for those struggling with debt, the truth is that this one rate cut isn't really going to make much of a difference for most people,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;It doesn't change the fact that the best thing people can do to lower interest rates is to take matters into their own hands.&#8221;
He said the average rate on a new credit card offer should stay at a record high of 24.92% for some time if the Fed lowers rates.
&#8220;While they'll almost certainly fall from record highs in coming months, no one should expect dramatically reduced credit card bills anytime soon,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;Barring the Fed unexpectedly stomping on the gas pedal when it comes to lowering rates, credit card APRs are still going to be high for the foreseeable future.&#8221;
A $5,000 credit card balance would take 27 months and $1,528 in interest to pay off at 24.92% if monthly payments of $250 were made. If the interest rate went down by 0.25% because of a 0.25% Fed rate cut, the interest paid over 27 months would fall by $22, resulting in savings of less than a dollar a month, Schulz noted.
Schulz said auto loan rates will get lower, too, if the Fed reduces rates, but consumers should still shop around for financing from other places besides dealerships because their rates are typically much higher.
Saving rates have already started falling and may keep doing so, but consumers don&#8217;t need to panic, he said.
&#8220;Yields aren't going to fall off a cliff immediately after the Fed cuts rates,&#8221; he said.

If Fed Cuts Interest Rates, Credit Card APRs 'Are Still Going To Be High' For Now, Economist Says

Capital One Finl's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>) short percent of float has risen 5.22% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 9.15 million shares sold short, which is 2.42% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 5.29 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.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1726509612_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Capital One Finl 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 Capital One Finl'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>, Capital One Finl's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.68%, which means the company has less 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>
