Analysts are specialists within banking and financial systems that typically report for specific stocks or within defined sectors. These people research company financial statements, sit in conference calls and meetings, and speak with relevant insiders to determine what are known as analyst ratings for stocks. Typically, analysts will rate each stock once a quarter. 
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

The company recently reported that it has 6.44 million shares sold short, which is 0.91% 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.

How Is The Market Feeling About Fox?

In the current session, the stock is trading at $44.57, after a 0.22% increase. Over the past month, Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HGV#NYSE">HGV</a>) stock increased by 14.94%, and in the past year, by 14.97%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751569221_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Hilton Grand Vacations P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Hilton Grand Vacations has a better P/E ratio of 138.97 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 29.3 of the Hotels, Restaurants &amp; Leisure industry. Ideally, one might believe that Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751569221_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.

Coinbase Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) continues to consolidate on Thursday. This comes after the stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46248538/bitcoin-ethereum-solana-treasury-companies-need-to-manage-market-volatility-franklin-templeton-report-warns">gained about 35% in just two weeks</a>.
A flag pattern formed on the chart and could be a bullish dynamic. It is why Coinbase is the Stock of the Day.
Some people think technical analysis is like astrology or reading tea leaves. And for many analysts, it is. They look for patterns on charts without understanding the price action and trading dynamics that make them form.
If understood and applied correctly, technical analysis is the study of the supply and demand and psychology in a market.
For example, when the leadership of the market is changing, from bulls to bears or bears to bulls, a reversal pattern may appear on a chart. This can be a rounded pattern, a reversal day, a V pattern, or a double or triple top or bottom.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="587" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/03144915/CoinbasGlobal.one_-1024x587.png" alt="" class="wp-image-972565" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/03144915/CoinbasGlobal.one_-1024x587.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/03144915/CoinbasGlobal.one_-300x172.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/03144915/CoinbasGlobal.one_-768x440.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/03144915/CoinbasGlobal.one_.png 1426w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>

If the leadership changes slowly over an extended period of time the rounded pattern may form. If the change takes place in one day, a reversal day pattern may form. If a stock tests and fails at resistance or support before reversing, it could be a double or triple top or bottom.
A flag pattern is different. It is a continuation pattern. It indicates a break in a trend that will soon get back into gear.
As you can see on the chart, Coinbase made a large and rapid move higher. This resulted in large amounts of volume trading.
Some of the traders who were doing the buying decided that the stock had gotten ahead of itself. They left the market in hopes that the price would go back down so they could finish their buying at lower prices.
As a result of this, the stock traded sideways and the volume diminished. The key to the flag pattern is the lower volume. It is a characteristic of a break in a trend.
There is a good chance Coinbase breaks out of the upside of this pattern and starts to move higher again.

Amazon.com (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) is underperforming its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/amazon" rel="noreferrer noopener">tech peers in 2025</a>, trailing the broader market amid intensifying competition in artificial intelligence and cloud infrastructure.
While the S&amp;P 500 has gained around 7% year-to-date and the Nasdaq-100 has risen by 9%, Amazon shares are up just under 2%, underwhelming against the backdrop of a high-growth AI cycle.
Microsoft Corp.

Microsoft&#8217;s success is partly due to its existing enterprise relationships and strategic AI investments, particularly in OpenAI, which have integrated well with Azure&#8217;s offerings.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Amazon&#8217;s Expanding Footprint And Its AI Bet</h2>
Amazon, which began as an online bookstore, has grown into a sprawling conglomerate spanning e-commerce, cloud computing, advertising, streaming, and logistics. In the <a target="_blank" href="https://ir.aboutamazon.com/quarterly-results/default.aspx" rel="noreferrer noopener">last five years</a>, Amazon&#8217;s revenue from third-party seller services, advertising, subscription services, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) has all achieved double-digit growth.
AWS, which runs data centers and provides software tools, generated 16-17% of the company&#8217;s revenue in the last three years, accounting for ~60% or more of its operating income. In a bid to solidify its role in the AI infrastructure arms race, Amazon has committed $100 billion to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43550696/amazon-to-pour-nearly-100-billion-into-ai-in-2025-surpassing-microsoft-and-alphabet-andy-jassy-says-cost-of-inference-will-meaningfully-come-down-amid-deepseek-worries" rel="noreferrer noopener">artificial intelligence initiatives for 2025</a>, surpassing Google parent Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) $75 billion and Microsoft&#8217;s $80 billion.
AWS unit CEO Matt Garman <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/05/45702458/amazon-expands-global-data-centers-boosts-access-to-nvidia-ai-chips-for-cloud-customers" rel="noreferrer noopener">told Bloomberg in</a> May that it is rapidly expanding its global server farm footprint and increasing access to Nvidia Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) latest AI chips. AWS opened a new data center cluster in Mexico in 2025 and is building additional facilities in Chile, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, and Taiwan.
Garman highlighted the strong demand for AI infrastructure and confirmed that AWS is working with Nvidia to grow its supply of GB200 semiconductors for customer testing. He also welcomed the opportunity to host OpenAI&#8217;s models on AWS.
Brian White of Monness Crespi Hardt emphasized AWS <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44488542/amazons-ai-cloud-strategy-to-stay-strong-amid-near-term-turbulence-says-analyst-aws-remains-well-positioned-for-long-term-ai-trends" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">already benefits from</a> training large language models and expects that momentum to grow. White believes the platform is well-positioned for growth in AI inference, a rapidly expanding segment of the cloud market.
Mark Mahaney of Evercore ISI has named Amazon his top stock pick, citing &#8220;strong AI-driven cloud potential&#8221;. Wedbush&#8217;s Dan Ives noted rising enterprise demand for AI infrastructure, with Amazon among the top hyperscale providers alongside Microsoft and Google.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Robotics, Prime, And Profitability</h2>
Cost efficiency also remains in focus. Bank of America analysts estimate that Amazon&#8217;s integration of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/price-target/25/06/45727360/amazon-analyst-sees-robotics-unlocking-billions-in-savings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">robotics and AI</a> could lead to $16 billion in annual cost savings by 2032. The company currently has over 750,000 robots assisting with 75% of customer orders. The company currently has over 750,000 robots assisting with 75% of customer orders.
J.P. Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth identified Amazon Prime as the company&#8217;s most valuable strategic asset. He projected that Amazon is likely to raise the price of Prime membership in 2026, consistent with its historical four-year pricing pattern. Anmuth believes a $20 increase could yield $3 billion in annual revenue, without significantly affecting subscriber retention.
Amazon&#8217;s Prime Day 2025 event is scheduled to begin on July 8 and will run for four days, with deals across more than 35+ categories, including new segments like groceries and travel. Bank of America analyst Justin Post expects tools like Alexa+ and Rufus to drive Prime Day gross merchandise value to $21.4 billion, a 60% increase over the previous year.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Market Sentiment</h2>
Amazon.com currently has a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMZN/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus price forecast</a> of $246 based on 39 analyst ratings. The highest forecast came from Tigress Financial, which set a forecast of $305 on May 6, 2025. Raymond James set the lowest forecast at $195 on April 21, 2025. These estimates average out to $246.67, indicating a potential upside of 10.54%.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Analyst Views On Microsoft&#8217;s AI Position</h2>
Analysts remain positive on Microsoft&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46204491/microsofts-ai-and-cloud-scale-drives-market-beating-returns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">long-term prospects</a> in AI. Derrick Wood of TD Cowen said the company is &#8220;well-positioned in key secular growth markets.&#8221; Brad Sills of Bank of America referred to Microsoft as &#8220;the leading AI player in applications and infrastructure.&#8221; Kash Rangan of Goldman Sachs forecast Microsoft Cloud revenue will surpass $300 billion by fiscal 2029, citing its AI pricing strategy. Dan Ives of Wedbush projected Microsoft will reach a $4 trillion market cap this summer and $5 trillion within 18 months, driven by AI momentum.

ReNew Energy Global Plc ("ReNew" or the "Company") today announces that it has received a final non-binding offer dated July 2, 2025, from Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company PJSC-Masdar ("Masdar"), Canada Pension Plan Investment Board ("CPP Investments"), Platinum Hawk C 2019 RSC Limited as trustee for the Platinum Cactus A 2019 Trust ("Platinum Hawk") (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, "ADIA") and Sumant Sinha (the Founder, Chairman and CEO of ReNew) (together with Masdar, CPP Investments and Platinum Hawk, the "Consortium") to acquire the entire issued and to be issued share capital of the Company not already owned by members of the Consortium for cash consideration of US$8.00 per share. This represents an increase of US$0.93 per share, equivalent to 13.2%, from the initial non-binding proposal dated December 10, 2024. The final non-binding offer represents a 26.2% premium versus the undisturbed share price of US$6.34 on December 10, 2024, being the closing share price prior to the initial non-binding proposal becoming public and a 38.9% premium to the 30-day volume-weighted average price of US$5.76 per share (as of December 10, 2024).
As previously announced, the ReNew Board of Directors formed a Special Committee ("Special Committee") led by Manoj Singh, the Lead Independent Director, consisting of the six independent non-executive ReNew Directors to consider the proposals received from the Consortium.
The Special Committee is in the process of evaluating the final non-binding offer alongside its independent financial advisor, Rothschild &amp; Co and independent legal counsel, Linklaters LLP. Active discussions with the Consortium remain ongoing and the Special Committee will provide an update to the market as soon as reasonably practicable.
No assurance can be given regarding the likelihood, terms or details of a potential transaction resulting from the final non-binding offer received from the Consortium or any other potential transaction. Further decisions or disclosures by the Special Committee will be made as appropriate or required.

Trader Notes: Crypto trader Ted Pillows <a href="https://x.com/TedPillows/status/1940818758723121310">noted</a> that Bitcoin dominance appears set for a short-term decline, likely triggering a brief relief rally for altcoins. While it&#8217;s not expected to mark the beginning of a full altseason, altcoin holders may still enjoy a few weeks of upside.
Byzantine General <a href="https://x.com/ByzGeneral/status/1940813534646227175">sees</a> a breakout in both price and open interest (OI) typically signals continued upside. Based on this pattern, BTC could be heading toward the next target at $112,000.
Titan of Crypto observed that Bitcoin is nearing a crucial mid-channel resistance level on the weekly chart. A breakout above this red mid-range line could pave the way for a move into the higher green target zone.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Dogecoin Hold Steady Ahead of Holiday Weekend — Ideal Time To Hedge Shorts

Webull Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BULL#NASDAQ">BULL</a>) shares are moving lower after the company announced a $1 billion standby equity agreement Thursday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/n46251836/webull-announces-1-billion-standby-equity-agreement">after the market close</a>.
What Happened: Webull announced that it secured a financing option through a standby equity purchase agreement with YA II PN, an investment fund managed by Yorkville Advisors.
The agreement gives the company an option to issue up to&nbsp;$1 billion&nbsp;in Class A ordinary shares to Yorkville over a three-year period. Yorkville will pay a 2.5% discount to the market price for any shares issued under the purchase agreement.
Webull said it intends to strategically use the purchase agreement to raise and deploy capital as it needs. 
&#8220;With access to capital available through the Purchase Agreement, Webull is well positioned to pursue new growth opportunities, such as product expansion, new asset classes, and geographic expansion,&#8221; said&nbsp;Anthony Denier, group president and U.S. CEO of Webull. 
&#8220;As we survey the evolving market landscape and consider next-generation technologies in the space such as stable coins and real-world asset tokenization, access to capital will be critical to our ability to innovate and compete on the cutting edge going forward.&#8221;
BULL Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/bull">Webull shares</a> were down 4.27% in after-hours, trading at $13.69 at the time of publication Thursday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Webull Stock Is Sliding After The Close: What's Going On?

The benchmark S&amp;P Aerospace &amp; Defense Select Industry Index&#8217;s year-to-date return for 2025 is reported as 24.3%. Even more astonishing is that the index has basically been flat (down 2%) over the past month.
Just think about what&#8217;s happened over that month: a commitment from NATO members to massively boost defense spending, fighting between Israel and Iran and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46042703/iran-calls-us-bombing-of-nuclear-sites-very-very-dangerous-for-everybody">U.S. bombing</a> of Iran&#8217;s nuclear sites in late June.
Wall Street traders and analysts are convinced all this turmoil will translate into big gains for defense stocks, sooner rather than later.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">NEW: Get Access To The Leaderboards That Reveal Tomorrow's Top Stocks</h2>
Updated daily, Benzinga's Top Stock Leaderboards highlight our best buys right now. Spot breakout opportunities before the crowd catches on—without the noise. Get access now and start using the same research trusted by hedge funds, analysts and serious traders. Get started <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge/?">HERE</a>.
&#8220;Recent events, including the conflicts in Iran and Ukraine and the U.S. defense budget&#8217;s surpassing $1 trillion for the first time,&#8221; said Allspring Equity Teams &amp; Investment Analytics Team in comments to Benzinga. &#8220;The scenario reinforces our team&#8217;s fundamental view that: 1) defense spending is a growing budget priority in the U.S. and globally and 2) military superiority is being rapidly redefined by technology.&#8221;
The Allspring Team also believes that any rise in defense stocks should also help the larger market.
&#8220;In the event of escalation, energy and defense stocks may provide a hedge against other segments of the equity market that might be more challenged,&#8221; the firm noted.
Additionally, spending in the global defense sector is expected to reach $2.5 trillion by 2025, surpassing the previous record set in 2024.
&#8220;One key reason for the increase is the continuing war between Russia and Ukraine, which has resulted in increased defense spending by both the European Union and the United States,&#8221; said Andrew Prochnow, analyst-at-large at Tastylive, a streaming platform geared towards options traders. &#8220;Rising tensions in the Middle East have also contributed to this trend.&#8221;
These conflicts have clearly boosted stocks in the sector, as evidenced by the rally in the iShares US Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITA#BATS">ITA</a>). &#8220;The fund has surged by more than 25% year-to-date, and 40% over the last 52 weeks,&#8221; Prochnow noted.
With defense stocks in play right now, which standout companies make the most sense for investors? While every market maven&#8217;s portfolio goals and strategies are unique, here are three sector stocks that should provide some upbeat returns for investors through the rest of 2025, if not beyond. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Howmet Aerospace</h2>
Pittsburgh, PA-based aerospace and defense firm Howmet Aerospace (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HWM#NYSE">HWM</a>) has experienced a 9% increase in commercial sector growth and a 19% rise in defense aerospace revenues in the first quarter of 2025. Both trends, particularly the latter, are expected to continue for the rest of the year. 
HWM has some big-name customers, including Boeing (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), which uses Howmet&#8217;s parts for its once again rising 737 Max Aircraft. Lockheed Martin (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) also collaborates with Howmet on its F-35 Lightning fighter jets, with orders for engine spares accumulating. With 143 A-plus rated mutual funds stashing shares of HWM and eight straight quarters of increased fund ownership, take a page out of the fund manager playbook and consider adding Howmet to your portfolio.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">RTX Corp.</h2>
RTX Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>), an Arlington, Virginia-based aerospace and defense company, is increasingly popping up on Wall Street charts at the moment.
&#8220;We bought RTX right around the inauguration of this administration, so we have a 12% return on our holding,&#8221; said Alexander Cook, portfolio manager at Optimist Capital. 
RTX is a large, broad-based entity encompassing Collins Aerospace, Pratt &amp; Whitney and Raytheon, which suits Cook just fine. &#8220;We like investments like these even outside of heightened risks,&#8221; he said. &#8220;RTX is a large cap dividend payer and more insulated when markets get overly frothy, we expect to see another 10% on this one over the next 6-9 months.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">CrowdStrike Holdings Inc.</h2>
Cybersecurity plays a crucial role in government and defense, particularly in safeguarding highly sensitive data, both during times of war and in times of peace. CrowdStrike&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>) stock price is $513 per share, but it&#8217;s holding its value, trading up 50% year-to-date. Citing CRWD&#8217;s highly effective AI deployment in key cybersecurity areas, such as cloud, identity and log-scale domains, Wedbush Securities recently boosted the company&#8217;s price target to $575.
&#8220;Defense technology is going to be the best pure growth play going forward,&#8221; Cook said. &#8220;In a modern first-world scenario, boots on the ground are just not realistic.&#8221; He advises investors to view cybersecurity as the new defense. &#8220;Cybersecurity is all about protecting technology and looking for weaknesses in opposing entities rather than building missiles.&#8221;
