$100 Invested In Interactive Brokers Group 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Looking into the current session, Interactive Brokers Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NASDAQ">IBKR</a>) shares are trading at $51.21, after a 0.25% decrease. Over the past month, the stock fell by 5.63%, but over the past year, it actually spiked by 64.25%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750705231_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Interactive Brokers Group P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 23.56 in the Capital Markets industry, Interactive Brokers Group Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 28.3. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Interactive Brokers Group Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750705231_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Interactive Brokers Group Stock In The Last 5 Years

Interactive Brokers Group's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NYSE">IBKR</a>) short percent of float has risen 13.68% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.82 million shares sold short, which is 2.66% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.45 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?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">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>Interactive Brokers Group Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Interactive Brokers Group 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 Interactive Brokers Group'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://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Interactive Brokers Group's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.14%, 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?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

What's Driving the Market Sentiment Around Interactive Brokers Group?

As a new GameStop Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) ETF has made its debut, retail traders and investors have raised alarms about market distortion and potential misuse by institutional players.
What Happened: Platforms such as Reddit and X are abuzz with concerns regarding a new ETF being created to track GameStop, which is set to make its debut on the bourses on Tuesday.
The fund, created by the Bitwise Funds Trust, will trade under the ticker $IGME, and according <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1928561/000121390025052046/ea0244774-02_497k.htm">to</a> SEC filings, it will not track GameStop through direct share ownership, but rather via derivatives.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45832509/cathie-wood-warned-about-trump-musk-clash-long-before-it-exploded-now-says-the-feud-exposes-just-how-dependent-elons-empire-is-on-the-us-government">Cathie Wood Warned About Trump-Musk Clash Long Before It Exploded — Now Says The Feud Exposes Just How Dependent Elon&#8217;s Empire Is On The US Government</a>
This raises concerns of potential misuse, as it deals with a &#8220;meme&#8221; stock that has been at the center of the infamous tussle between retail traders and Wall Street bigwigs. According to the fund's prospectus, the strategy involves options-based exposure via covered calls, rather than holding GME shares outright.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

Note: It is an ETF that will only have exposure to <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24GME&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">$GME</a> via Calls &amp; Puts. No shares involved. &quot;The covered call strategy utilized by the Fund is "synthetic" because the Fund's exposure to the price return of GME… <a href="https://t.co/LqkVr5dEXA">pic.twitter.com/LqkVr5dEXA</a>
&mdash; DirtΞvader (@EvaderDirt) <a href="https://twitter.com/EvaderDirt/status/1931799944052035958?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 8, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
&#8220;Because such exposure is synthetic, it is possible that the Fund's participation in the price return of GME may not be as precise as if the Fund were directly holding shares,&#8221; Bitwise mentions <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1928561/000121390025052046/ea0244774-02_497k.htm">in</a> its summary prospectus filed with the SEC. 
Retail traders on social media have questioned whether such ETFs are tools for circumventing share-based accountability, especially as borrow fees for GME spike and failures-to-deliver (FTDs) remain elevated.
&#x2A;Borrow Fees &#8211; This refers to the fee that short-sellers pay when borrowing securities, which they then sell to take a position against a particular stock. The fee for this varies depending on the short interest in a stock, and in the case of GameStop, it is now at 0.3506% <a href="https://companiesmarketcap.com/gamestop/cost-to-borrow/">on</a> Interactive Brokers Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NASDAQ">IBKR</a>), having reached as high as 110% in May 2022.
&#x2A;Failures-To-Deliver &#8211; This occurs when someone buys or sells a stock, but the actual shares don't show up on time to complete the trade. FTDs commonly occur due to &#8220;naked short-selling,&#8221; a practice in which short-sellers don&#8217;t actually borrow shares before selling them, thus flooding the market with synthetic supply.
This comes just months following the debut of T-Rex 2X Long GME Daily Target ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GMEU#BATS">GMEU</a>), another fund that began with 10,000 shares of Gamestop, before swapping to a derivatives-based approach, likely a Total Return Swap.
Retail traders and investors, however, believe that these instruments are made to serve Wall Street more than Main Street. &#8220;I can't help but wonder if the real reason that this instrument was made was for creation and redemption misuse by Authorized Participants,&#8221; said @sboho on X.
<figure class="wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
According <a href="https://jacobslevycenter.wharton.upenn.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/ETF-Short-Interest-and-Failures-to-Deliver.pdf">to</a> a paper by Richard B. Evans of the University of Virginia, these concerns by retail investors aren&#8217;t entirely unfounded, since ETFs are responsible for nearly 78% of FTDs in U.S. equities. 
The paper also identifies how Authorized Participants routinely engage in &#8220;operational shorting,&#8221; which refers to intentionally delaying ETF share creation or delivery, which, while used for certain arbitrage strategies, is ripe for misuse. 
Bitwise has responded to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for a comment, stating that &#8220;asset managers are prohibited from commenting on prospective ETF launches in the time between filing and launch,&#8221; and hence, they have no comment to add regarding this.
Why It Matters: Several leading analysts and market experts have since echoed similar views, with investment manager James Chanos of Kynikos Associates sarcastically referring to single-stock ETFs, calling their &#8220;high fees and reset risks&#8221; as &#8220;financial innovation at its best.&#8221;

A sharp divide is emerging on Wall Street. Bank of America's strategist Michael Hartnett says that President Donald Trump&#8216;s economic policies are lifting capital-rich tech giants rather than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/michael-hartnett">domestically focused small caps.</a>
&#8220;It&#8217;s&nbsp;like&nbsp;the&nbsp;&#8217;80s deregulation boom and&nbsp;the&nbsp;&#8217;90s tech boom all at the same time,&#8221; the expert said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wall Street's New Divide: &#8220;Bro Billionaires&#8221; Vs. The Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Base&#8221;</h3>
In his latest &#8220;The Flow Show,&#8221; Hartnett introduced what he calls the "bro billionaire" stock basket, an equal-weighted group including Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>), Interactive Brokers Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NASDAQ">IBKR</a>), Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>), Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) and Apollo Global Management Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APO#NYSE">APO</a>).
Since the 2024 U.S. election, this basket is up 45%.
By contrast, the Russell 2000 index — which Hartnett associates with Trump's electoral "base" — has fallen 7% over the same period.
&#8220;Tariffs, tax cuts, reshoring, deregulation, but no bid for the little guys,&#8221; Hartnett said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Dollar Drops Despite 5% Yields</h3>
The U.S. dollar continues to slide, down 8.9% year to date, even as 30-year Treasury yields remain near 5%. Hartnett sees this as the product of fiscal disarray, not monetary misstep.
Hartnett indicated that Trump's approach combines aggressive tax cuts with high spending, a mix that resembles both Republican and Democratic fiscal strategies.
&#8220;U.S. dollar breaking down despite 5% Treasury yields as DOGE replaced by deficits &amp; tax cuts,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;DOGE was a bust, tariffs are a bust, so only way he gets the deficit down to 3% of GDP is via max pumping GDP and hoping Bessent can sweet talk the [bond] vigilantes,&#8221; he added.
According to Hartnett a weaker dollar is bullish for gold, emerging markets, and international equities. 
Hartnett continues to back his BIG allocation—bonds, International, and Gold—a theme he&#8217;s been pushing since early spring.
 "Profits and policy keep us long weak dollar plays, gold, EM, international," Hartnett stated.
Hartnett noted that gold-related funds have attracted $75 billion in inflows year-to-date, marking the largest influx on record.

Interactive Brokers Group Reports 3.384M Daily Average Revenue Trades In May, Up 43% From Last Year And 11% Lower Than Prior Month

On CNBC's &#8220;Mad Money Lightning Round,&#8221; Jim Cramer said he likes Leidos Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LDOS#NYSE">LDOS</a>). &#8220;I am worried that the defense budget may be cut, but this is homeland security. I think it&#8217;s a good opportunity, the stock&#8217;s come down a great deal. Let&#8217;s pull<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LDOS"> the trigger,&#8221; he added</a>.
As per the recent news, Leidos, on Wednesday, announced that it has acquired Kudu Dynamics.

Supporting his view, Goldman Sachs analyst James Yaro, on May 15, maintained Interactive Brokers Group with a Buy and raised the price target from $212 to $240.

Watching Interactive Brokers Group; Traders Circulate Investor Business Daily's SwingTrader Picks Stock

Interactive Brokers Group's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NYSE">IBKR</a>) short percent of float has risen 12.29% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.13 million shares sold short, which is 2.01% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<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?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">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>Interactive Brokers Group Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Interactive Brokers Group 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 Interactive Brokers Group'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://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Interactive Brokers Group's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.53%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Goldman Sachs analyst James Yaro discusses the performance of retail <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">brokers and investment bank stocks in his coverage</a>.
Retail Broker Sector: In particular, the analyst noted that Coinbase Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>), Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) and Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NASDAQ">IBKR</a>) witnessed an average rise of about 35% since April 1, 2025, significantly outperforming the S&amp;P 500 by 31 percentage points.
Yaro writes that this indicates ongoing optimism about the retail trading environment, supported by robust April metrics.

The analyst says he remains positive on retail trading, noting that current levels are still considerably below historical highs when adjusted for account growth.
Yaro estimates 12%/5% revenue and EPS CAGRs from 2024-2027, driven by robust account acquisition, strong assets gathering, and a cyclically supportive retail trading environment.
Yaro projects compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) of 12% for revenue and 5% for EPS from 2024 to 2027, based on strong new account acquisition, robust asset gathering, and a cyclically supportive retail trading environment.
Investment Bank Sector: Stocks are up 7% since the same date, slightly outperforming the S&amp;P 500 by three percentage points, adds the analyst.
Yaro says that the cyclical recovery in investment banking appears to have been delayed again, with disclosed industry M&amp;A fees down 34% quarter-to-date year-over-year and ECM/DCM volumes falling 44%/41% in April year-over-year.
The analyst adds that the market likely needs more concrete signs of an investment banking recovery for the stocks to continue outperforming from this point on.
Given the base case scenario of limited mergers and acquisitions activity this year, the analyst anticipates a modest 3% year-over-year increase in total revenue for 2025.
In the near term, the analyst&#8217;s model forecasts a 2% quarter-over-quarter revenue decline for the second quarter of 2025.
Nevertheless, Yaro maintains a positive outlook for the medium term, projecting revenue growth of 16% in 2026 and 10% in 2027.
Overall, he views companies with more consistent structural growth prospects as positive, including Buy-rated Houlihan Lokey, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLI#NYSE">HLI</a>), HOOD, and IBKR.
Yaro also favors companies with an underappreciated counter-cyclical business, such as our Buy-rated Evercore Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>), and companies with the potential to gain market share, which includes all four mentioned.
In particular, he anticipates a strong trading environment to support HOOD and IBKR, while HLI should experience through-the-cycle growth from ongoing momentum in Corporate Finance and benefits from restructuring and inorganic growth execution.
Yaro forecasts EVR to deliver best-in-class revenue growth from 2025 to 2027 and sees potential upside for EVR through its exposure to Equity Capital Markets (ECM).
