Benzinga's 'Stock Whisper' Index: 5 Stocks Investors Secretly Monitor But Don't Talk About Yet

Avenue Therapeutics shares are trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected Q3 EPS results

On Thursday November 14, 2024, Red Cat Holdings Filed For $100M Mixed Securities Shelf

Starbucks's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NYSE">SBUX</a>) short percent of float has fallen 11.2% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 25.17 million shares sold short, which is 2.22% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.94 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>Starbucks Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1731689169_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Starbucks 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 Starbucks'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>, Starbucks's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.20%, 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>

<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.

How Is The Market Feeling About Element Solutions?

Student loan policies could be overhauled under President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s upcoming administration, with several existing programs likely to undergo changes or be eliminated.
The Biden administration&#8217;s Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) repayment plan, currently serving eight million borrowers, stands at a crossroads. The program&#8217;s fate hangs in the balance as the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals weighs its legality, with no clear indication that Trump&#8217;s administration would continue defending it.
Don't Miss:

<li>The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?</li>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/red-ventures"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/100k-cd">$100K Sitting In A CD Account, Should I Move Money Into The Stock Market?</a></li>
</ul>
&#8220;The reason [the Biden] administration is defending the rule so vigorously is it was providing a much more affordable repayment plan,&#8221; Persis Yu, deputy executive director at Student Borrower Protection Center, told CNBC Make It last week.
Trump&#8217;s previous term offers insights into potential policy directions. According to CNBC, his administration proposed eliminating Public Service Loan Forgiveness and slashed funding for various higher education programs. During that period, roughly 99% of PSLF applicants faced rejection by 2019, leading to legal action from teachers&#8217; unions against then-Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos.
Trending: Studies show 50% of consumers think Financial Advisors cost much more than they do —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/money-pickle"> to debunk this, this company provides matching for free and a complimentary first call with the matched advisor.</a>
The administration&#8217;s approach to borrower protections also shifted. Rules were loosened for institutions to demonstrate student success outcomes, resulting in an estimated $11 billion reduction in debt relief for borrowers affected by questionable academic programs, particularly at for-profit colleges.
Project 2025, a policy agenda developed by The Heritage Foundation, outlines more dramatic changes. While <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39874558/trump-disassociates-himself-from-extreme-project-2025-at-michigan-rally-i-dont-know-what-the-hell-it">Trump has distanced himself from the proposals</a>, the agenda calls for eliminating PSLF and borrower defense programs. More importantly, it proposes dismantling the Department of Education and returning to private lender dominance in education financing.
Trending: This Jeff Bezos-backed startup will allow you to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bezos-landlord-100-dollars"> become a landlord in just 10 minutes, and you only need $100</a>.
The shift toward private lending raises concerns among borrower advocates. &#8220;What kind of corporate interests are going to be protected over the interests of borrowers and students,&#8221; Yu said to CNBC. Private student loans typically carry higher costs as lenders set interest rates independently, unlike federal loans, where Congress determines rates.
The transition could leave millions of borrowers in limbo regarding their monthly payments. Biden&#8217;s alternative debt relief plan, targeting long-term borrowers and those from low-value academic programs, faces legal challenges that the Trump administration appears unlikely to defend against Republican-led lawsuits.

The landscape marks a pivot from March 2020, when <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/09/40780284/student-loan-protection-soon-ends-9-7m-borrowers-should-be-worried-about-their-credit-ratings">Trump initiated the pandemic-related payment pause</a>. That policy lasted throughout his term and provided widespread relief to federal loan borrowers. His return to office signals a potentially different approach to student debt management, emphasizing private sector solutions over federal programs.

<a href="https://www.wsj.com/topics/person/donald-trump">Donald Trump</a> is considering tapping Fox Business Network host Larry Kudlow for a senior economic policy role in his administration, according to people familiar with the matter, amid the president-elect's mounting frustration with <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/trump-transition-co-chair-makes-late-play-for-treasury-secretary-f1b50c60?mod=article_inline">jockeying for top jobs</a>.
Kudlow met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, the president-elect's private Florida club, late this week, the people said. Trump's advisers see Kudlow as a contender to lead the National Economic Council and possibly the Treasury Department.&nbsp;
