8 Industrials Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

<ul>
<li>Advances LiDAR technology for improved contrail analysis</li>
<li>Provides insights for development of new aircraft engines</li>
<li>Industry actively collaborating to understand contrail science with aim to reduce emissions</li>
</ul>
CINCINNATI, Nov. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- GE Aerospace (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>) and NASA are partnering on a series of unique flight tests to help further the aviation industry's understanding of contrails, using new test methods and technologies.
Contrails are clouds made of ice particles, which can be created when airplanes fly through cold, humid air. Persistent contrails are estimated to have a warming climate impact. Flight tests will support industry research efforts to better understand contrail science and enable new technology development that can reduce non-CO2 emissions.
Flights for the Contrail Optical Depth Experiment (CODEX) will be conducted the week of November 18 from Virginia. NASA Langley Research Center's G-III aircraft will follow GE Aerospace's Flying Test Bed in the sky and scan the aircraft wake with Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology. This will advance the use of LiDAR by NASA to generate three-dimensional imaging of contrails to better characterize how contrails form and how they behave over time.
For GE Aerospace, this represents new operating methods for its 747 Flying Test Bed, expanding capabilities ahead of flight tests planned this decade to evaluate performance of new commercial engine technologies. Open Fan, advanced combustion designs, and other propulsion systems are being developed through CFM International's Revolutionary Innovation for Sustainable Engines (RISE)&#x2A; program.

Janus Henderson Group plc Ordinary Shares

CORRECTION: Trian 13F Reported No Change In Shares In Janus Henderson Group And General Electric Co.

Trian Fund Management, the hedge fund led by Nelson Peltz, disclosed substantial portfolio changes in its third-quarter 13F filing, making notable exits from major companies before the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41772701/trumps-historic-return-7-ways-his-second-term-could-impact-the-us-economy">2024 U.S. presidential election</a>. 
What Happened: The fund sold off its entire stakes in GE HealthCare Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GEHC#NASDAQ">GEHC</a>) (1.34 million shares), Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) (2.65 million shares) and Rentokil Initial plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTO#NYSE">RTO</a>) (470,000 shares). 
These exits suggest a cautious pivot from sectors like healthcare and entertainment, which face both market challenges and macroeconomic pressures.
Trian also reduced its stakes in several core holdings. The fund cut its position in Wendy&#8217;s Co (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WEN#NASDAQ">WEN</a>) by 3%, reducing its shares from 31.5 million to 30.5 million, and scaled down its investment in asset manager Invesco Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVZ#NYSE">IVZ</a>) by 15%, from 27.2 million to 23.1 million shares.
Read Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41988194/trump-plans-to-erase-ev-tax-credit-analyst-says-its-net-bullish-calls-sell-off-wrong-knee-jerk-reaction">Trump Plans To Erase EV Tax Credit: Tesla Analyst Says It&#8217;s &#8216;Net Bullish,&#8217; Calls Sell-Off &#8216;Wrong Knee-Jerk Reaction&#8217;</a>
The most substantial reduction came in Allstate Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>), where Trian slashed its holdings by 69%, to 613,447 shares. These reductions reflect a strategic tightening in sectors affected by recent market volatility and economic uncertainty.
What Else: However, Trian strengthened its position in select companies, raising its stake in Solventum Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOLV#NYSE">SOLV</a>) from 5.36 million to 7.13 million shares, and held its positions steady in Janus Henderson Group PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JHG#NYSE">JHG</a>) and General Electric Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>) as its top holdings.
This targeted increase aligns with Trian's confidence in sectors that may benefit from potential industrial and financial sector growth.
Soon after Trian's portfolio moves in the third quarter, Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential election was confirmed, along with a Republican majority in the Senate.
Trump's policy agenda, which includes corporate tax cuts, increased tariffs and a potential rollback of green energy initiatives, is expected to significantly impact markets. 
Sectors like traditional manufacturing, defense and energy may see gains under Trump's administration, aligning with Trian's portfolio shifts, especially in industrial and financial investments.
Trian's recent moves highlight a forward-looking strategy as the hedge fund prepares for an evolving economic landscape shaped by Trump's return to the White House.

Nelson Peltz's Trian Fund Management Reshaped Portfolio Ahead Of Presidential Election

General Electric shares have climbed 6% this month. Investors are anticipating benefits from Trump's proposed increases in defense spending and infrastructure investment.
General Aerospace (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>) shares have climbed this month amid overall market strength following Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41772701/trumps-historic-return-7-ways-his-second-term-could-impact-the-us-economy">presidential election win</a>, as investors foresee potential policy changes that could benefit the industrial conglomerate's diverse portfolio, particularly in aviation, defense and energy.
Trump's proposed increase in defense spending could create growth opportunities for GE's aerospace and defense segments, where the company manufactures engines and advanced technologies for both military and commercial aircraft. 
A boost in defense budgets could lead to new contracts and expanded production, enhancing revenues for GE's aviation division, one of its most profitable arms.

What To Know: Trump's focus on U.S. infrastructure investment, including modernizing the country's transportation, energy and digital networks, aligns well with GE's capabilities. During his campaign, Trump proposed a substantial infrastructure spending plan targeting upgrades to roads, bridges and electrical grids. 
If implemented, this spending could fuel demand for GE's power generation and renewable energy technologies, as well as its industrial automation solutions. 
GE's experience in power equipment, renewable energy solutions, and grid modernization positions the company to capitalize on federal investments aimed at upgrading and securing the country's energy infrastructure.

What Else: Additionally, Trump's stance on reducing regulatory hurdles for industries like manufacturing and energy could ease operational challenges for GE. 
Regulatory rollbacks in environmental compliance and energy production could lower costs for GE's energy businesses, making it easier to develop and deploy gas turbines and other energy solutions with fewer restrictions and associated costs. 
Furthermore, Trump's pro-business tax policies could result in financial benefits for GE, enabling the company to retain more earnings for reinvestment in R&amp;D, technological innovation and potential debt reduction.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy GE Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in GE&#8217;s case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, GE has a 52-week high of $194.80 and a 52-week low of $92.17.

GE Aero Options Trading: A Deep Dive into Market Sentiment

Invesco has unveiled a new series of thematic exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that focus on artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and defense sectors. These funds aim to leverage emerging trends within these industries.
What Happened: The newly introduced ETFs, named Invesco Artificial Intelligence Enablers, Cybersecurity, and Defence Innovation Ucits, are based on benchmarks crafted by Kensho, a division of S&amp;P Global Indices. Kensho utilizes natural language processing to pinpoint companies with significant involvement in each theme, categorizing them into &#8220;core&#8221; and &#8220;non-core&#8221; groups, Financial Times<a href="https://www.ft.com/content/476d3e81-cbd2-4484-8fb5-4a074dcaa97c"> reported</a> on Thursday.
As per Invesco, core companies generate a substantial portion of their revenue from products and services aligned with these themes, while non-core companies provide essential inputs without focusing on end products. The AI enablers strategy targets firms advancing AI technology and infrastructure, whereas the cybersecurity ETF invests in companies protecting enterprises from unauthorized electronic access. The defense fund provides exposure to companies developing advanced weapons and defensive systems

Shares of aerospace and defense companies are trading higher after Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election.

All eyes are focused on the upcoming U.S. presidential election, with several indicators suggesting a tight race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald J. Trump. However, a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41702887/harris-takes-lead-in-red-state-iowa-in-shock-poll"> shocking poll</a> result in Iowa may have significant implications for the race and thus for the broader geopolitical paradigm.
According to pollster Ann Selzer of the Des Moines Register, Harris leads Trump 47% to 44% among likely voters. As Benzinga staff writer Bibhu Pattnaik mentioned, the significance is that "Trump held a four-point lead in the same poll in September – and led President Joe Biden by 18 points before Biden quit the race."
To be fair, another Iowa poll conducted by Emerson College Polling/RealClearDefense showed that Trump is leading Harris by 10 percentage points. Therefore, the Trump campaign dismissed the Des Moines Register/Mediacom survey as an "outlier poll."
Nevertheless, Selzer commands a<a href="https://www.newsweek.com/who-ann-selzer-iowa-poll-kamala-harris-1979294"> strong</a> reputation, having made controversial calls that later turned out to be correct. These calls included correctly predicting Trump's win in Iowa in 2016 and 2020. If the pollster turns out to be correct once more, investors may want to turn their attention to the geopolitical realm.
Harris has maintained the Biden administration's strong support of Ukraine in its efforts to expel Russia's invasion. At the same time, the vice president has<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40811624/kamala-harris-slams-donald-trump-over-friendship-with-russian-president-a-dictator-who-would-eat-you"> also blasted Trump</a> for his "friendship" with Russian president Vladimir Putin. Should Harris win on Tuesday, it's probable that every effort would be made to provide lethal aid to Ukraine. Cynically, this push would likely bolster the defense industry.

A highly leveraged exchange-traded fund, DFEN seeks the daily investment results of 300% of the performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Select Aerospace &amp; Defense Index.
Under the DFEN fund are leading defense contractors, such as RTX Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) and Lockheed Martin Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>). However, the ETF also includes companies that are tied to civilian aerospace infrastructure, particularly General Electric Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>) — which conducts business under GE Aerospace — and Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>).
However, it should be noted that leveraged ETFs are incredibly risky. Further, investors should not hold a position for longer than one day. Otherwise, the daily compounding of volatility could lead to value erosion over time.
The DFEN Chart: Although DFEN predictably encountered significant choppiness, the overall picture has been bullish, with the fund gaining 34% on a year-to-date basis.
<ul>
<li>The defense-focused ETF saw a noticeable pop higher on Monday off the back of the aforementioned Iowa poll.</li>
<li>It's also interesting to note that DFEN began showing signs of life after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race, allowing Harris to shine.</li>
<li>Nevertheless, investors should watch the broadening wedge formation that has developed since July, which may have bearish implications.</li>

Heightened Tensions Amid Election Drama Could Bolster Direxion's DFEN Fund

<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 GE Aero 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 GE Aero'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>, GE Aero's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.17%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
