General

Citadel's Ken Griffin Disclosed 5.4% Stake In Hawaiian Electric Industries

Hawaiian Electric Indus's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HE#NYSE">HE</a>) short percent of float has fallen 11.76% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 15.63 million shares sold short, which is 9.08% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.74 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>Comparing Hawaiian Electric Indus'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>, Hawaiian Electric Indus's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.19%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Snowflake, Hawaiian Electric Industries And Other Big Stocks Moving Lower In Tuesday's Pre-Market Session

After the market ended at a fresh record on Monday, traders have positioned themselves for more gains. The index futures are modestly higher early Tuesday. China, the second largest economy in the world, decided to go bold, with the nation&#8217;s central bank announcing a series of stimulatory measures. This has sent commodities soaring, given China is a commodity-guzzling country. China&#8217;s growth has a bearing on the rest of the global economy as it is often called the world&#8217;s factory.
In the domestic market, traders may look ahead to a speech by a Federal Reserve official, a consumer confidence reading and a couple of house prices data. Momentum suggests additional gains but the overbought levels may introduce caution, especially ahead of key inflation data due this week and more labor market data that would roll out next week.

Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks closed Monday&#8217;s session modestly higher although trading was marked by some degree of volatility. The major indices opened higher, as they digested comments from Fed officials, and reacted to S&amp;P Global private sector activity readings, which showed the manufacturing sector contracted more than expected. Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari said in an interview with CNBC&#8217;s Squawk Box that he favored a slowdown in rate cuts.
The indices traded on a nervous note, with the Dow Industrials and the Nasdaq Composite dipping below the unchanged line in the mid-session before making a comeback. The Dow hit new intraday and closing highs, while the S&amp;P 500 Index, despite the mid-session volatility, traded in the green throughout the session and ended at a fresh high.
Among S&amp;P 500 sectors, real estate, utility, material, energy and consumer discretionary stocks advanced solidly. On the other hand, communication services, healthcare and IT stocks experienced modest weakness.

Insights From Analysts:
The Fed delivered in line with expectations and it is now time to move to neutral on defensives vs. cyclicals, said Morgan Stanley&#8217;s U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson. The valuation of defensives has reached extended levels and &#8220;we await more clarity on the labor data,&#8221; the strategist said. 
&#8220;Historically, defensives see fairly persistent outperformance 3-12 months following the Fed&#8217;s first cut, but can see initial, modest underperformance in the 1 month following the initial rate reduction,&#8221; Wilson said. The strategist recommended taking profits on the recent outperformance of defensives makes sense in the absence of knowing the outcome of the next labor report. 
Wilson said he continued to have conviction in his recommendation of large caps over small caps and also his bias for high-quality names.
WisdomTree Senior Economist and Wharton Professor Emeritus Jeremy Siegel said valuations across many sectors appear stretched by historical standards, particularly in the technology sector and AI-driven companies. &#8220;This reflects a broader market anticipation of substantial growth driven by technological advancements,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;As AI continues to evolve, it will be crucial to differentiate between companies that are genuinely creating value through innovative AI applications and those whose valuations are inflated by speculative interest.&#8221;
Siegel sees big rate cuts supporting small-cap companies that borrow at short-term borrowing rates as these companies have been the most impacted by the Fed&#8217;s aggressive rate hikes and they have some relatively cheap valuations in the U.S. market.
