Waste Management's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WM#NYSE">WM</a>) short percent of float has fallen 6.1% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 3.09 million shares sold short, which is 0.77% 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/">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.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1730297718_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Waste Management 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 Waste Management'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>, Waste Management's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.46%, 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>

KEY HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2024
<ul>
<li>Total Company revenue grew 7.9% driven by core price of 6.5%.(d) In addition to strong execution on pricing, revenue grew above expectations due to higher market prices for the recyclable commodities we sell and a notable increase in landfill volumes. The Company expects full year revenue growth to be about 6%, which is above the high end of prior guidance of 5.75%.(g)</li>
<li>Adjusted operating EBITDA grew $170 million in the quarter driven by the Company's Collection and Disposal business. Adjusted operating EBITDA margin grew 90 basis points to a record high of 30.5%. This strong result puts the Company on track to deliver about $6.5 billion in adjusted operating EBITDA in 2024, which is near the upper end of its guidance range.(a)(e)(g)</li>
<li>The Company continues to prioritize technology and automation to optimize its cost structure and enhance operational efficiency.

<li>The Company has invested $790 million on acquisitions in 2024, largely for solid waste businesses. The acquired businesses have contributed $108 million of revenue growth in 2024.

Investor sentiment turned optimistic towards risk assets early this week as plummeting oil prices, driven by Israel's decision not to target Iran's crude facilities during weekend attacks, eased concerns over an escalated Middle Eastern conflict and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41575181/crude-oil-faces-steepest-one-day-drop-in-over-two-years-energy-stocks-plunge-prices">potential global economic disruptions.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 gained 0.3%, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 mirrored this performance and the Dow added 0.6%.
Economically sensitive small-cap stocks saw stronger gains, with the Russell 2000 soaring 1.5% after a stretch of losses in six of the last seven sessions.
West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude – tracked by the United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>) – dropped over 5% in midday New York trading, heading for its sharpest one-day decline since July 2022. Natural gas prices also plunged, with Henry Hub prices falling more than 9%, poised for their steepest single-session loss since mid-January.
U.S. energy stocks weakened, with the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>) standing as the sole sector in the red on Monday.
Despite the significant drop in energy prices, Treasury yields continued to rise, potentially tempering the stock market&#8217;s bullish momentum. Investors remain cautious about further U.S. fiscal policy deterioration as election season approaches. 
Yields on 10-year Treasury bonds rose by 5 basis points to 4.29%, aiming for their highest close since July 11.
Gold prices held steady around $2,745 per ounce, marking no gains since last Tuesday's close.

Cues From Last Week: Amid simmering tensions in the Middle East and Israel's missile strikes in Iran, oil prices tumbled over the weekend.
Treasury yields rose during the week, signaling concerns that regardless of who wins the elections, the next administration might struggle with fiscal discipline. This sentiment was further exacerbated by the International Monetary Fund's warnings on the long-term trajectory&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41495286/deficit-strain-in-washington-will-get-worse-imf-warns-national-debt-projections-rev" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">of the U.S. national debt</a>.

Insights From Analysts: Ryan Detrick, Chief Market Strategist at Carson Group, highlighted that this was the best "Sell in May" period since 2009.
"This is the best &#8216;sell in May&#8217; period since 2009. Remember when they told us to sell because of valuations, yield curves, wars, inflation, Fed, elections, quad poor, GDI, LEIs, weak breadth, recessions, etc? I do,&#8221; he wrote.

However, despite mega-cap earnings scheduled for this week, rising treasury yields could potentially play spoilsport, according <a href="https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/weekly-traders-outlook">to</a> Nathan Peterson, Director of Derivatives Analysis at the Schwab Center for Financial Research.
"If yields continue to move higher next week this could generate selling pressure, regardless of mega-cap tech earnings," Peterson said.
He underscored that pre-election selling next week is a "possibility" and that there could be higher volatility in the markets.
