<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.

You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.

(JLL) - Analyzing Jones Lang LaSalle's Short Interest

JLL Hotels &amp; Hospitality group arranged acquisition financing for the 1,641-key convention center resort near Orlando's top tourist attractions
ORLANDO, Aug. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4235782-1&amp;h=1637585592&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jll.com%2F&amp;a=JLL">JLL</a>&nbsp;Hotels &amp; Hospitality group announced today that it secured $620 million in acquisition financing for Hyatt Regency Orlando, a 1,641-key, AAA Four Diamond resort in Orlando, Florida.
JLL represented affiliates of RIDA Development Corporation and an Ares Management Real Estate fund to secure the floating-rate, five-year loan through Wells Fargo, Bank of America and Deutsche Bank on behalf of borrowers.
This premier resort offers spacious guest rooms averaging 453 square feet and suites averaging 846 square feet. The accommodations feature marble-accented bathrooms, sleeper sofas, mini-fridges and 65-inch streaming TVs.
Guests can also enjoy in a variety of amenities, including six dining options, a 24-hour fitness center, tennis courts, a spa and an outdoor pool. Furthermore, the hotel features 315,000 square feet of meeting and event space along with its three direct connections to the Orange County Convention Center ("OCCC"), the second largest convention center in the United States.

The housing market is in flux, with home prices at record highs amid a demand and supply imbalance. Elevated mortgage rates – seen as a function of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/08/40365730/july-inflation-rate-falls-more-than-expected-supports-hopes-for-large-fed-rate-cu">interest rates at a 22-year high</a> and inflation, which is eating away into disposable income – are constraining purchases. In the wake of all this, NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>) CEO John Ketchum recently lauded Florida as a thriving market for housing as well as commercial and industrial construction.
The Florida Housing Market: The Sunshine State has the distinction of being the biggest housing market in the country. Despite California having the twice as many residents, Florida has nearly double the number of home listings, <a href="https://www.realtor.com/news/trends/florida-housing-market-condos-home-prices-coast-inland/">said</a> Realtor.com in a recent report. It is a bellwether state &#8220;consistently attracting people from around the globe due to its significant tax advantages, perfect weather, and booming economy,&#8221;  Jenny Lenz, the managing director of Dolly Lenz Real Estate, told the website.
The report characterized the housing market in the state as split, with condominium prices on the coasts falling due to high insurance costs and assessment fees, while single-family home cost remained steady inland.
Recent data from Redfin showed that the median sale price of a home in Florida rose 2.3% year-over-year to $419,200, lower than the nationwide median price of $426,900. Although marking a decline from the April 2024 peak, home prices are still near the record levels, the real-estate company said. That said, the number of homes sold fell 14.1%, while inventory rose 16%.
While all roads led to Florida following the pandemic due to the state&#8217;s pulling points, things are changing now, a U.S. News report <a href="https://realestate.usnews.com/real-estate/articles/is-floridas-housing-market-in-trouble">said</a>. The deterrents are the expensive homeowner&#8217;s insurance due to hurricane threat in the state, higher home prices and the increase in property taxes.

Commercial Real Estate &#8211; Risks &amp; Opportunities: After a tough year in 2023, the commercial real estate market nationwide is expected to bounce back this year as the Fed is widely expected to cut rates this year.
A report from the National Association of Realtors <a href="http://www.nar.realtor/sites/default/files/documents/2024-03-commercial-real-estate-market-insights-03-26-2024.pdf">noted</a> a troubled office sector, with falling lending activity and rising office availability and delinquencies. The office vacancy rate nationwide rose to a new record of 13.8% in February, it said. Leasing activity, a proxy for demand and interest, has dropped about 50 percentage points below pre-pandemic levels. Among other commercial real estate segments, multi-family was recovering from lows, retail spaces continued to slowdown and the industrial segment is showing signs of a slowdown.
NAR&#8217;s report flagged a sharp increase in rent for industrial spaces in Florida cities such as Orlando, Jacksonville and Tampa, with the spike attributed to strong demand for warehouse properties. The increases are in the magnitude of 10% from last year, it said.
That said, there is a looming risk. The low financing costs buyers are availing now could soon become a thing of the past, <a href="https://www.godfreylegal.com/what-2024-will-bring-for-commercial-real-estate-in-florida/#:~:text=2024%20will%20not%20be%20all,soon%20come%20to%20an%20end.">said</a> Godfrey Legal. It reasoned that many loans on commercial properties will mature later this year and in the upcoming year, with about $1.5 trillion in commercial real estate debt maturing. The terms of fresh loans or refinancing will likely be tougher, 
Corporates Make Beeline To Florida: Companies, especially big techs, which typically are based out of either the Silicon Valley or New York, are looking toward Florida, with many already having made the move. Ken Griffin's Citadel and Citadel Securities have permanently moved their headquarters to Miami. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has shifted base out of Seattle to Florida, citing the need to be near his space venture Blue Origin.
Defense contractor Lockheed Martin has relocated its Space division headquarters to Titusville, Florida. JPMorgan has doubled down its presence in the state. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39457393/what-going-on-with-jp-morgan-shares-today">The big bank said in June that its downtown Miami office will double in size</a> from 80,000 square feet to 160,000 square feet in part to accommodate 400 additional employees. &#8220;Miami and South Florida are home to an increasing number of our clients, customers, community partners and employees, and a strategic location for our operations in Latin America as well,&#8221; said Jonathan Bello, head of Chase for Business Miami.
Florida is the fourth biggest state in terms of GDP, according to Bureau of Economic Analysis. The state also boasts of the highest population growth and it attracts remote workers due to the low cost of living, especially in northeast Florida, <a href="https://www.forbes.com/councils/forbesbusinesscouncil/2022/06/22/three-reasons-why-my-company-is-moving-to-florida/">said </a>Forbes contributor Gilda D&#8217;Incerti.
Potential Beneficiaries: With industry players and watchers betting on Florida&#8217;s housing and commercial real estate markets, real estate and utility companies operating in the state stand to gain big. Commercial real estate services and investment&nbsp;company, CBRE Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CBRE#NYSE">CBRE</a>), Jones Lang LaSalle Incorporated (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JLL#NYSE">JLL</a>) and Cushman &amp; Wakefield plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CWK#NYSE">CWK</a>), homebuilder Lennar Corp.

CBRE Group Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cbre#NYSE">CBRE</a>) reported second-quarter 2024 core earnings per share of 81 cents, ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 69 cents. However, the reported figure declined 1.2% year over year.
Reflecting positive sentiments, shares of CBRE were up more than 9% so far today. Results reflect growth in its resilient lines of business. Global Workplace Solutions (&quot;GWS&quot;) experienced strong business wins with a healthy balance of new clients and expansion. The leasing business performed well due to office leasing revenue growth in the United States, driven by strength in New York. However, the Real Estate Investments segment&#39;s revenues decreased year over year.
Quarterly revenues were up 8.7% year over year to $8.39 billion but compared unfavorably with the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $8.52 billion.
Net revenues increased 11% (11.7% in local currency) year over year to $4.97 billion. Core EBITDA rose marginally (1.7% in local currency) to $505 million.
<h3>Quarter in Detail</h3>
CBRE Group&#39;s Advisory Services segment reported a year-over-year revenue increase of 8.6% (9.3% in local currency) to $2.22 billion. Our estimate was nearly the same as reported number.
Global leasing revenues rose 9% (same local currency), driven by leasing revenue growth in the Americas and Asia-Pacific regions.
Global sales revenues fell 3% (2% in local currency) even though property sales revenues began to stabilize. However, mortgage origination revenue rose 38% (same local currency) due to a 20% increase in loan origination fees and higher interest earnings on escrow balances.
The GWS segment registered a year-over-year increase of 9.5% (10.3% in local currency) in revenues to $5.94 billion. Our estimate was pegged at $5.98 billion.
Paced by the sustained strength in the Local business, Facilities management net revenues rose 18% (19% in local currency). Project management net revenues increased 11% (12% in local currency) due to the continued strong growth in Turner &amp; Townsend. Net operating margin improved 20 basis points compared with first-quarter 2024, reflecting the early benefit of recent cost actions, but was below the prior-year period.
The Real Estate Investments segment experienced a decrease of 9.2% (same local currency) in revenues to $232 million.
At the end of the second quarter of 2024, assets under management decreased $1.5 billion from the first quarter of 2024 to $142.5 billion due to lower asset values and an adverse foreign currency movement.
In the second quarter of 2024, CBRE acquired Direct Line Global, which is a leading provider of technical facilities management services for data center owners and operators, for a total cash and non-cash consideration of $290.9 million. CBRE also acquired a provider of local facilities management technical services in Canada.
During the quarter, CBRE also announced its plan to combine its project management business with its Turner &amp; Townsend subsidiary.
<h3>Balance Sheet Position</h3>
CBRE Group exited the second quarter of 2024 with cash and cash equivalents of $928 million, down from $1.04 billion as of Mar 31, 2024.
As of Jun 30, 2024, CBRE Group had $3.7 billion in total liquidity. This comprised nearly $927.7 million in cash in addition to the ability to borrow a total of approximately $2.7 billion under its revolving credit facilities, net of any outstanding letters of credit. The company&#39;s net leverage ratio was 1.58x as of the same date, significantly less than CBRE&#39;s primary debt covenant of 4.25x.
During the June-end quarter, the company repurchased approximately 0.6 million shares for $48.4 million. As of Jun 30, 2024, it had $1.4 billion of stock-repurchase capacity remaining under its authorized buyback program.
<h3>Outlook</h3>
For 2024, CBRE projects its core EPS in the range of $4.70-$4.90, up from the previous guided range of $4.25-$4.65. The company expects approximately over 45% of its full-year core EPS to be achieved in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the same is currently pegged at $4.48, which is below the guided range.
Currently, CBRE Group carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
