10 Information Technology Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

STMicroelectronics NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STM#NYSE">STM</a>) and Innoscience have formed a strategic partnership to develop and manufacture gallium nitride (GaN) technology, a key component for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/g44572888/stmicroelectronics-and-innoscience-sign-gan-technology-development-and-manufacturing-agreement" rel="noreferrer noopener">next-generation power electronics.</a>
The collaboration announced on Monday aims to strengthen GaN power solutions for applications in artificial intelligence (AI) data centers, renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, and more.
GaN power devices deliver higher efficiency, a smaller footprint, and reduced energy dissipation compared to conventional silicon-based counterparts.
These advantages make them well-suited for use in AI data centers, consumer gadgets, solar inverters, and industrial power systems.

Also, the technology is becoming increasingly popular in electric vehicle powertrains, as it helps minimize weight and size while enhancing overall performance.
&#8220;GaN technology is essential to improve electronics, creating smaller and more efficient systems which save electric power, lower cost, and reduce CO2 Emissions. Innoscience pioneered mass production of 8-inch GaN technology and has shipped over 1 billion GaN devices into multiple markets, and we are very excited to move into strategic collaboration with ST,&#8221; said Chairman and Founder of Innoscience, Weiwei Luo.
The partnership will allow Innoscience to make use of STMicroelectronics&#8217; manufacturing sites in Europe for producing GaN wafers, while STMicroelectronics can tap into Innoscience's front-end fabrication facilities in China.
This mutual access is expected to strengthen supply chain adaptability and reliability. By capitalizing on their respective expertise, the combination seeks to maintain a steady and secure supply of GaN power solutions.
Price Action: STM shares traded lower by 1.68% at $21.59 in premarket at last check Tuesday.

STMicroelectronics Faces Leadership Shakeup, Italy Seeks New CEO Amid Semiconductor Struggles

STMicroelectronics's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STM#NYSE">STM</a>) short percent of float has risen 5.39% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 13.86 million shares sold short, which is 2.15% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.87 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>STMicroelectronics Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1740508216_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for STMicroelectronics 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 STMicroelectronics'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>, STMicroelectronics's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.91%, 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>

The company is preparing to launch its next-generation technologies aimed at improving optical connections within <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/g43841623/stmicroelectronics-to-enable-higher-performance-cloud-optical-interconnect-in-datacenters-and-ai-c" rel="noreferrer noopener">data centers and AI clusters.</a>
As the demand for AI computing grows, issues related to performance and energy efficiency across memory, computing, power supply, and interconnections have surfaced.
ST&#8217;s silicon photonics and BiCMOS technologies are designed to overcome these challenges, with manufacturing expected to begin in the latter half of 2025.
&#8220;Today&#8217;s announcement represents the first step for our PIC product-family and, thanks to close collaboration with key partners across the entire value chain, our ambition is to become a key supplier of silicon photonics and BiCMOS wafers for the datacenter and AI cluster market, be it pluggable optics today or optical I/O tomorrow,&#8221; said Remi El-Ouazzane, President, Microcontrollers, Digital ICs and RF products Group at STMicroelectronics.

&#8220;AWS is pleased to collaborate with STMicroelectronics to develop a new silicon photonics technology (SiPho), PIC100, that will enable interconnection between any workload including Artificial Intelligence (AI). AWS is working with STMicroelectronics based on their demonstrated capability to make PIC100 a leading SiPho technology for the optical and AI market,&#8221; said Vice President and Distinguished Engineer at Amazon Web Services, Nafea Bshara.
The SiPho and BiCMOS technologies are based on a 300mm silicon platform, offering a distinct solution for the optical industry. These technologies will be produced at ST&#8217;s 300mm facility in Crolles, France.
