<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.

<h3>Comparing Ally Financial'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>, Ally Financial's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.81%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Looking Into Ally Financial's Recent Short Interest

Regional banks still have room to run and thrive even as it is &#8220;easy to overstate the advantage&#8221; for big banks, says Truist Securities in its latest note, highlighting three key paths for regional banks to succeed.
What Happened: Big banks have clear economies of scale, and they have been re-rated relative to small banks with the top five U.S. banks holding about 47% market share for a decade. According to the Truist Securities note, dated Jan. 6, the big banks are in a better position, but at the same time, individual regionals can position themselves to thrive.
Truist initiated coverage on 14 regional financial companies outlining three key strategies relating to pace, magnitude, and quality for the regional banks to remain competitive.
<ul>
<li>Differentiated Growth: Focus on unique and sustainable growth opportunities via differentiated customer base, a different form of fee Income and a niche business with competitive moat. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Disciplined Capital Allocation: Efficiently deploy capital to support growth and enhance shareholder value.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Navigating the Evolving Landscape: Adapt to changing market conditions, including interest rates, yield curve shifts, loan and deposit growth, and commercial real estate market dynamics.&#8221;</li>

Why It Matters: The three listed key paths for regional banks and card companies to thrive can be differentiated and linked to the stocks as mentioned by Truist in their research note.
Differentiated Growth Stories
<ul>
<li>Differentiated Customer Base: American Express Co has an exclusive high-end customer base, which would require an investment of over $100 billion to replicate, according to Truist. On the other hand, Fifth Third Bancorp has a unique ability to organically build a strong deposit market share.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Differentiated Form of Fee Income: Capital One Financial Corp has seen an expansion of network revenues following the acquisition of Discover. While, KeyCorp&#8217;s leading regional investment banking franchise will be favored by given the potential for increased deal activity driven by the Federal Reserve&#8217;s interest rate cuts and anticipated political changes.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Niche Business with Competitive Moat: Wintrust Financial Corp secures a dominant position in the highly profitable insurance premium finance market. Whereas, Huntington Bancshares Inc&#8216;s differentiated approach, including its expansion into new lending areas, will support its continued strong performance in loan, deposit, and fee growth across high-quality markets.</li>
</ul>
Disciplined Capital Deployment
<ul>
<li>Another way in which the regional banks could thrive includes a disciplined capital deployment which typically follows organic growth first, followed by dividends and buybacks, and potentially mergers and acquisitions. However, the key lies not in the order itself, but in the flexibility and agility with which banks can adjust their capital allocation strategy in response to evolving company, industry, and macroeconomic conditions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Truist believes some banks are attractively valued for share repurchases. M&amp;T Bank Corp&#8216;s CFO in a recent conference hinted at higher buybacks in 2025.</li>
</ul>
Navigating The Evolving Landscape
<ul>
<li>According to Truist, it&#8217;s not unusual for multiple challenges to arise simultaneously. The current environment has witnessed sluggish loan and deposit growth amidst rapid interest rate hikes. However, it is anticipated that at least some of these headwinds will begin to abate in the coming year, leading to a more favorable environment for the banking sector</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>CRE Valuation: Banks with significant commercial real estate exposure in high-growth, high-income markets, such as Fifth Third and Huntington, are well-positioned for future CRE origination opportunities. M&amp;T and Citizens Financial Group Inc. will also benefit from an eventual improvement in market conditions.</li>
</ul>

Regional Banks Can Thrive Despite Big Bank Dominance: Truist Securities Highlights Three Key Paths For Thriving Regional Banks

Analysts at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/truist-securities">Truist Securities</a> initiated coverage on 24 large-cap, regional, and trust banks, as well as credit card companies. They anticipate strong earnings growth over the next two years, projecting an annual increase of 12-15% fueled by factors like improving loan growth, a steeper yield curve, and ample capital for expansion.
What Happened: Forecasting a favorable environment for banks in 2025 and 2026, the analysts at Truist foresee a less stringent regulatory environment, with more clarity and flexibility for banks regarding mergers and acquisitions, and the deployment of excess capital.
The note highlighted that the banking stocks were de-rated during the first two years of Trump 1.0 because the yield curve was flattened and late-cycle macro concerns surfaced, even as the administration enacted bank-friendly tax reform and regulatory tailoring. However, according to the brokerage, a little Fed easing and a steeper curve are necessary for the stocks to be re-rated and two rate cuts are expected in 2025, as hinted by Fed during their December meeting. 
According to Truist, while bank valuations have increased, they remain relatively attractive compared to historical levels. They currently trade at a price-to-book value (P/TBV) below their post-financial crisis average, and at a significant discount to the broader market. The note adds that given the current market valuations, bank stocks appear undervalued relative to the S&amp;P 500.
However, despite Truist beliefs that the sector offers attractive opportunities, careful stock selection is crucial according to them. &#8220;While we're not at &#8216;close your eyes and buy ‘em levels,&#8217; we still see attractive opportunities across the sector and view stock selection as increasingly important,&#8221; the note said.

Why It Matters: Truist&#8217;s coverage on 24 financial stocks is spread across three subgroups namely, large-cap, regional, and trust banks, which is initiated with a positive outlook.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Large-Cap Banks</h3>
The research note examines long-term investment potential of large U.S. banks as these institutions possess significant advantages, including, &#8220;embedded offense&#8221; with the presence of strong existing businesses and customer relationships.
It also anticipates cyclical tailwinds and capital leverage for such banks given a favorable economic environment and the ability to effectively utilize capital for growth.
These factors position large U.S. banks to achieve organic growth by the expansion of core businesses, double-digit earnings growth and an attractive returns on equity.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trust Banks And Capital Markets</h3>
Truist anticipates gradual interest rate decreases, the eventual end of quantitative tightening, and a healthy economy and capital markets providing a competitive landscape to trust banks.
According to the analysts, investors should prioritize stocks with the potential for sustained operating leverage. Which is the ability to increase profitability significantly with relatively small increases in revenue. And stocks with strong capital returns, with high levels of income through dividends and share buybacks.

Deal Dispatch: Stoli On The Rocks As US Business Goes Bankrupt, Ally Financial To Sell Credit Card Unit

Ally Financial shares are trading higher after last week's report suggesting the company is assessing the potential sale of its credit card business.

Ally Financial's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALLY#NYSE">ALLY</a>) short percent of float has fallen 4.41% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 7.90 million shares sold short, which is 2.6% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.05 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/">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>Ally Financial Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732561212_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Ally Financial 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 Ally Financial'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>, Ally Financial's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.48%, 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>

<a href=""https://www.benzinga.com/topic/truist-securities"">트루이스트 증권</a>의 애널리스트들은 24개의 대형은행, 지역은행, 신탁은행과 신용카드 회사에 대한 커버리지를 개시했다. 이들은 향후 2년간 강력한 수익 성장을 예상하며 대출 성장률 개선, 가파른 수익률 곡선, 충분한 자본 확충 등의 요인에 힘입어 연간 12~15%의 수익 증가를 예상하고 있다.
무슨 일 있었나: 2025년과 2026년에 은행에 우호적인 환경이 조성될 것으로 전망한 트루이스트 애널리스트들은 은행의 인수합병과 초과 자본의 활용에 관한 규제 환경이 보다 명확하고 유연해지면서 은행에 유리할 것으로 예상했다.
이번 메모는 행정부가 은행 친화적인 세제 개혁과 규제 조정을 시행했음에도 불구하고 수익률 곡선이 평평해지고 경기 후반기 거시적 우려가 부각되면서 트럼프 1기 행정부의 첫 2년 동안 은행주에 대한 투자의견이 하향 조정되었음을 강조했다. 그러나 트루이스트에 따르면 연준이 12월 회의에서 암시한 것처럼 주식이 재평가되기 위해서는 약간의 양적완화와 가파른 곡선이 필요하며, 2025년에 두 차례 금리 인하가 예상된다.
트루이스트에 따르면, 은행 밸류에이션은 상승했지만 과거 수준에 비해 여전히 상대적으로 매력적이다. 현재 은행은 금융위기 이후 평균보다 낮은 주가순자산비율(P/TBV)로 거래되고 있으며, 시장 전체에 비해 상당히 할인된 가격에 거래 중이다. 해당 메모는 현재 시장 밸류에이션을 고려할 때 은행 주식은 S&amp;P 500 지수에 비해 저평가된 것으로 보인다고 덧붙였다.
하지만 트루이스트는 은행 업종이 매력적인 기회를 제공하지만 신중한 종목 선택이 중요하다고 강조한다. "우리는 &#8216;눈 감고 사자&#8217; 수준은 아니지만, 여전히 섹터 전반에 걸쳐 매력적인 기회를 보고 있다. 주식 선택이 점점 더 중요해지고 있다고 생각한다.&#8221;
왜 중요한가: 24개 금융주에 대한 트루이스트의 커버리지 개시는 대형은행, 지역은행, 신탁은행의 세 가지 하위 그룹으로 나뉘며, 긍정적인 전망으로 시작된다.
<h3>대형은행</h3>
해당 리서치 메모는 미국 대형은행의 장기 투자 잠재력을 검토한다. 대형은행 기관은 강력한 기존 비즈니스와 고객 관계를 보유한 &#8216;내재된 공격&#8217;을 포함한 상당한 이점을 보유하고 있다.
또한 우호적인 경제 환경과 성장을 위해 자본을 효과적으로 활용할 수 있는 능력을 고려할 때 대형은행이 주기적인 순풍과 자본 레버리지를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 예상한다.
이러한 요인으로 인해 미국 대형은행들은 핵심 비즈니스의 확장을 통한 유기적 성장, 두 자릿수 수익 성장, 매력적인 자기자본 수익률을 달성할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">지역은행 및 카드사</h3>
또한, 트루이스트는 14개 지역 금융사에 대한 분석도 시작했고, 지역은행이 경쟁력을 유지하기 위한 세 가지 핵심 전략을 제시했다.
<ul>
<li>차별화된 성장: 독특하고 지속 가능한 성장 기회에 집중한다.</li>
<li>체계적인 자본 배분: 자본을 효율적으로 배분하여 성장을 지원하고 주주 가치를 높인다.</li>
<li>변화하는 환경 탐색: 금리, 수익률 곡선 변화, 대출 및 예금 증가, 상업용 부동산 시장 역학 등 변화하는 시장 상황에 적응한다.</li>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">신탁은행 및 자본시장</h3>
트루이스트는 점진적인 금리 인하, 양적 긴축의 궁극적 종식, 건전한 경제와 자본 시장이 신탁은행에 경쟁 환경을 제공할 것으로 예상한다.
애널리스트들은 투자자들이 지속적인 영업 레버리지가 가능한 종목에 우선순위를 두어야 한다고 말한다. 이는 상대적으로 적은 매출 증가로 수익성을 크게 높일 수 있는 능력을 의미한다. 또한 배당금과 자사주 매입을 통해 높은 수준의 소득을 창출하는 자본 수익률이 높은 주식이다.
트루이스트는 금리가 점진적으로 하락하고 양적 긴축이 끝나며 건강한 경제와 자본 시장이 신탁은행들에게 경쟁력을 제공할 것이라고 예상한다.
애널리스트들은 투자자들이 지속적인 운영 레버리지(매출의 상대적으로 작은 증가로 수익성을 크게 증가시킬 수 있는 능력)와 높은 배당금 및 자사주 매입을 통한 높은 수익률을 가진 주식을 우선시해야 한다고 조언한다.

Benzinga Pro의 독점 뉴스 및 도구로 더 많은 승리를 거두세요 
독점 속보 및 스캐너와 같은 Benzinga Pro의 강력한 도구 세트로 다른 트레이더보다 우위를 점하세요.

하나의 발언이 JP모건 체이스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>)의 주식을 화요일 장 중 최대 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40797360/jpmorgan-hires-new-managing-directors-for-mid-cap-investment-banking-division-report">7.5% 하락</a>시킨 것일까?
그런 것 같다. JP모건의 최고 운영책임자(COO) 다니엘 핀토(Daniel Pinto)가 화요일 업계 행사에서 내년 비용과 순이자소득(NII)에 대한 애널리스트 예측을 완화하였다.
블룸버그에 따르면 현재 NII 컨센서스인 895억 달러는 금리 예측에 비추어 볼 때 &#8220;그다지 합리적이지 않다&#8221;고 그가 <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-10/jpmorgan-shares-slide-as-pinto-says-analysts-are-too-optimistic?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" target="_blank" rel="noopener">말했다</a>. NII는 &#8220;더 낮아질 것&#8221;이라고 그가 덧붙였다.
그 결과, 주가는 2020년 6월 이후 가장 큰 폭으로 하락하였다.
그러나 이번 주에 비관적인 말을 한 은행 임원은 핀토뿐만이 아니었다.
골드만삭스 그룹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>)의 CEO인 데이비드 솔로몬(David Solomon)은 월요일 회사의 트레이딩 매출이 3분기에 10% 감소할 것으로 예상된다고 말했다. 화요일 이 회사 주가는 4.39% 하락한 467.13달러에 마감했다.
앨리 파이낸셜(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALLY#NYSE">ALLY</a>)의 주가도 17.62% 하락한 32.67달러에 마감했다.
이 회사는 자동차 연체율과 순 상각액이 예상보다 높았음을 확인하여 주가를 2020년 3월 이후 최대 하락폭을 기록했으며, 소비자 대출 기관인 캐피털 원 파이낸셜(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>)와 싱크로니 파이낸셜(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SYF#NYSE">SYF</a>)의 주가도 함께 하락했다.
24개 기업으로 구성된 KBW 은행 지수는 연준이 업계 반발 이후 대형 기업에 대한 더 높은 자본 요구 사항을 절반으로 줄이겠다고 발표했음에도 불구하고 3.5% 하락했다.
JP모건은 NII가 2분기에 대한 분석가들의 추정치를 놓쳤을 뿐만 아니라 예상보다 높은 비용을 보고했다.
핀토는 또한 화요일에 2025년 비용에 대한 기대가 너무 미미하며 3분기 투자 은행 수수료가 15% 증가하는 반면 시장 매출은 2%만 증가해 분석가 예측보다 낮을 수 있다고 말했다.
주가 움직임: JP모건의 주식은 화요일 5.21% 하락하여 205.56달러에 마감되었다.
<ul>
<li>IShares U.S. Financial Services ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYG#NYSE">IYG</a>)는 1.11% 하락했다.</li>
<li>Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NYSE">XLF</a>)는 1.02% 하락했다.</li>
<li>iShares U.S. Financials ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYF#NYSE">IYF</a>)는 1.00% 하락했다.</li>
