Chuck Grassley (R-IA) is urging Americans to recognize the program for what it is — not a scam, but a longstanding social contract that has supported generations of retirees. And while the program continues to be a critical safety net, Grassley says it's time for serious reform to ensure it stays that way.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Grassley Says Social Security Works</h2>
Grassley emphasized in a <a href="https://www.grassley.senate.gov/news/commentary/social-security-is-part-of-the-social-fabric-of-america">statement</a> last week that Social Security was never designed as a "get-rich" program or a financial scheme. Instead, it was built as a pay-as-you-go system where today's workers help fund benefits for today's retirees.

</ul>
"Social Security is not a Ponzi scheme," he said. "It's a social contract administered by the government that forges a generational commitment between workers and retirees."
He pointed out that Social Security is funded through payroll taxes paid by both employees and employers. Those funds go into the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/management/25/06/45720416/6-in-10-americans-fear-social-security-will-vanish-before-they-retire-as-2033-insolvency-clock-ticks-louder">Social Security Trust Fund</a>, which then pays out benefits to current retirees. The idea, according to Grassley, is that when current workers retire, the next generation of workers will support them in turn.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Program&#8217;s Financial Future</h2>
But the system isn't without challenges. According to the <a href="https://www.ssa.gov/oact/trsum/">Social Security Administration's trustees</a>, the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund is projected to run out of reserves by 2033. If that happens and no changes are made, the system will only be able to pay about 79% of scheduled benefits.

Grassley isn't alone in sounding the alarm. Experts across the political spectrum agree that some kind of reform is needed — and soon. Proposals on the table include <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44552100/i-have-no-doubt-theyre-going-to-raise-the-full-retirement-age-possibly-to-70-suze-orman-weighs-in-on-social-security-fears">raising the retirement age</a>, adjusting the payroll tax cap, or modifying the benefit formula.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Looking Back to Move Forward</h2>
Grassley pointed to a past moment of bipartisan success as a model. In the early 1980s, then-President Ronald Reagan and House Speaker Tip O'Neill reached a deal to shore up Social Security's finances for decades. That agreement included a mix of tax increases and benefit adjustments and is widely credited with saving the program at the time.
Grassley believes another moment like that is possible. "It's intellectually dishonest to ignore or dismiss the program's looming insolvency," he said. "We can and must address the nation's demographic shift to ensure Social Security continues to serve Americans from one generation to the next."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Call to Action</h2>
The senator is calling on lawmakers, advocacy groups, and the media to come together on workable solutions. For those who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42920272/despite-a-modest-50-monthly-increase-in-2025-americans-worry-social-security-may-not-survive-past-2034">rely on Social Security</a> — and those who plan to — the stakes are high. More than 70 million Americans currently receive monthly benefits, and for many retirees, it's their main or only source of income.
Grassley's message is clear: Social Security is a shared promise that must be kept. But it will require cooperation, compromise, and political will to ensure that future generations receive the benefits they've earned — just as today's retirees do.

<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.

Peering Into Conagra Brands's Recent Short Interest

Analysts are pointing out that the GENIUS Act, which was passed in the Senate on Tuesday, could increase the competition for the large payment networks like Visa Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>) and Mastercard Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>).
What Happened: The act establishes a regulatory framework for dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies, also known as Stablecoins, in the U.S.
According to Mark Hines, the investment director and founder at Herrick Lake Investments, internet companies like Stripe and Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) could quickly adopt stablecoin-based payments and bypass networks like Visa and Mastercard with lower fees.

As Trump Says 'Get It to My Desk' For 'GENIUS' Stablecoin Bill, Analysts Warn Of Disruption To Payment Giants Visa And Mastercard

Looking into the current session, Ameresco Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMRC#NYSE">AMRC</a>) shares are trading at $16.10, after a 0.31% increase. Moreover, over the past month, the stock increased by 17.95%, but in the past year, fell by 49.66%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is undervalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750363217_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Ameresco P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Ameresco has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 205.48 of the Construction &amp; Engineering industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750363217_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.

P/E Ratio Insights for Ameresco

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/oil">Oil markets</a> are again in the crosshairs of geopolitics. West Texas Intermediate crude prices rose more than 3% on Thursday to reach above $77 a barrel, with the tensions between Israel and Iran erupting and the world anxiously waiting to see if America would enter the conflict. Merchants are preparing for an escalation, particularly after the previous President Donald Trump ambiguously responded to reporters by saying, &#8220;I may do it. I may not,&#8221; when asked if America would attack Iran.
The consequence: A significant geopolitical risk premium of around $10 per barrel according to Goldman Sachs, has established itself, spurring fresh interest in oil and energy-themed ETFs as tactical plays and defensive strategies alike.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ETF Market Moves: Flows, Premiums, And Positioning</h2>
As volatility for oil surges, investors are using <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">liquid and leveraged ETFs </a>to register their opinions, or hedge their exposure.
United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>), the biggest oil ETF to track WTI futures, witnessed gains of more than 11% in the past five days as oil prices rose.
Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>), a wide energy sector play supported by ExxonMobil (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) and Chevron (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>), increased by 2.7% in the past five days, while the options volume reflected a bias toward bullish call action.
SPDR S&amp;P Oil &amp; Gas Exploration &amp; Production ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOP#NYSE">XOP</a>) and iShares U.S. Oil &amp; Gas Exploration &amp; Production ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEO#BATS">IEO</a>), which provide more targeted exposure to U.S. shale and drilling firms, also surged during the price spike, gaining 5% and 3%, respectively over the past five days.
For more adventurous speculators, leveraged funds such as the ProShares Ultra Bloomberg Crude Oil ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UCO#NYSE">UCO</a>) are also getting renewed traction, particularly as WTI pushes for the $80 barrier, a psychological support level for breakout enthusiasts. The fund witnessed price gains of almost 17% in the past five days.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Hormuz In The Crosshairs</h2>
The most frightening wild card in the mix might be the Strait of Hormuz, that tight shipping lane <a href="https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=65504">seeing </a>close to 20% of total global flows of oil, according to U.S. Energy Information Administration.
At the Japan Energy Summit &amp; Exhibition in Tokyo, Shell chief executive Wael Sawan predicted a &#8220;huge impact&#8221; on world trade should the waterway be closed, as cited by Bloomberg. Meanwhile the American Petroleum Institute reiterated to Bloomberg that even an appearance of threat to tankers had the power to create market mayhem. US involvement could cause Iran to attack infrastructure or shipping routes in retaliation, according to RBC Capital&#8217;s Helima Croft, cited by Reuters.
If such disruption occurs, ETFs related to oil logistics, shipping, and midstream infrastructure may experience knock-on effects, either favorable, as risk premiums increase, or unfavorable, if operations are suspended.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump&#8217;s Wild Card Effect: Trader Paralysis Or Opportunity?</h2>
Uncertainty about the president&#8217;s next step has added further volatility to markets. Trump&#8217;s unorthodox style of foreign policy in his first term has put investors off from making bets either on rapid escalation or rapid de-escalation.
&#8220;Even if Middle East tensions were to cool off in the coming days, oil prices are probably not headed back to the low-$60 range they were trading at a month ago,&#8221; said Price Futures Group senior analyst Phil Flynn as cited by Reuters, adding that the market had been underpricing geopolitical shocks, and now that premium is coming back.
This repricing has given new life to energy ETFs, which had trailed the wider equity indices over the past few months. Some strategists like Goldman Sachs think Brent may rise above $90 if the conflict worsens, something that would make energy ETFs one of the brighter spots in a risk-off environment.
For risk-management traders, tactical ETF plays can potentially present opportunities, but for long-term allocators, perhaps there is a larger message here: geopolitical hedging through energy exposure.

Israel-Iran Conflict Lifts Crude Above $77: What It Means For Oil ETFs

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced Thursday that the U.S. is leaving the door open to negotiations with Iran, as President Donald <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">Trump considers military options</a>.
In a direct message quoted by Leavitt, Trump said, "Based on the fact that there's a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks."
The remarks came after days of mounting tension, as Israel targeted Iranian nuclear sites and Tehran responded with ballistic missile strikes on Israeli cities.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Hints At Diplomacy, Yet Keeps Military Option Open</h3>
Leavitt reiterated that while the administration remains ready to act militarily, its preference is clear. 
"The president has made it clear he always wants to pursue diplomacy, but believe me, he is unafraid to use strength if necessary," she said. 

She added that the U.S. has already engaged in six rounds of indirect and direct talks and confirmed a new proposal was sent to Iran.
"The deal was both realistic and acceptable," Leavitt said, without providing further details.
Leavitt emphasized the gravity of the situation, stating that Iran possesses all the necessary components to build a nuclear weapon. "Let's be very clear. Iran has all that it needs to achieve a nuclear weapon.&#8221;
The White House press secretary warned that such a development would pose an "existential threat not just to Israel, but to the United States and to the entire world." 
She reaffirmed that President Trump has been clear for decades that Iran must never obtain a nuclear weapon, calling it a red line for U.S. national security.
Trump's approach of "peace through strength," Leavitt said, is unchanged. "Iran can and should make a deal. Or they will face grave consequences," she added.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reactions</h3>
Markets highly sensitive to Middle East development swiftly reacted to the White House announcements on Thursday. 
West Texas Intermediate crude futures, which had surged to $76.50 earlier on the day, reversed sharply after the briefing, plunging toward $73 per barrel. 
Traders took the president's 14-day decision window and openness to talks as a sign that a direct U.S.-Iran conflict was less likely in the near term.
Leavitt emphasized that the president is monitoring energy markets closely. "He is paying attention and monitoring oil prices," she said, further reassuring markets.
The foreign exchange market mirrored the softening of geopolitical risk. The U.S. dollar index, which had been gaining through the day, slipped by 0.3% after the White House briefing. 
Unlike oil and the dollar, gold remained resilient. Futures on the bullion – which is tracked by the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>) – ware unchanged at $3,370 per ounce.

Trump Gives Iran 2 Weeks To Strike A Deal Or Face US Military Action

Dividend investing is gaining popularity this year as investors seek to protect their portfolios from market volatility amid the impact of tariffs. Dividend stocks have proved their mettle in market downturns. According to a <a href="https://www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/documents/education/education-the-importance-of-dividends.pdf">report </a>from S&amp;P Global, the S&amp;P 500 High Dividend Index outperformed the broader S&amp;P 500 during both the dot-com bubble and the post-pandemic recession.
Earlier this month, a dividend investor <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/dividends/comments/1l37sm5/my_projected_income_for_june_is_60524/">shared</a> his income report and portfolio details on r/Dividends, a Reddit community with over 730,000 followers. The investor's portfolio screenshots showed his estimated dividend income for June stood at just $60,000. He earned about $52,000 on average per month with a single dividend ETF over the past five months.

The Redditor said he currently works as a self-employed attorney and makes $600,000, with plans to retire soon.
"I am a solo attorney who practices in NY but works remotely from Thailand," he said. "I love the flexibility of being able to set my own schedule and manage my own caseload. Most of all, I love the ability to write briefs from the pool or the beach!"
Let's take a look at some of the key holdings of the investor.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">YieldMax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF</h2>
The YieldMax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTY#NYSE">MSTY</a>) generates income by selling call options on MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) stock. The fund is down about 21% so far this year.
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.
MSTY was the biggest position of the investor, accounting for about 45% of his portfolio. He started a position in the fund about five months ago with 10,000 shares and gradually increased it to 36,838 shares.
The investor said he collected about $261,400 in distributions from MSTY over the past five months with an average monthly payout of $52,000.&nbsp;
"Of course I understand the risks associated with this type of investment vehicle and nothing lasts forever, past performance is not an indicator of future performance, and well aware of NAV erosion," he said about the fund.
He plans to use MSTY's payouts to pay off the mortgage on a new apartment.
"Once that is done, I'll reduce my holdings in MSTY to generate $12-14k a month to cover my monthly expenses in NY and Thailand, where I spend a lot of time in," he added.

Retail therapy might be on hold, but not every aisle is bare. Consumer spending in the United States <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/45971228/retail-sales-slump-more-than-expected-as-tariff-fears-hit-spending">unexpectedly slipped in May</a>, with retail sales declining 0.9% from month-to-month, a deeper decline than the 0.6% predicted by Dow Jones economists. That follows a weak 0.1% decrease last month, which indicates that American consumers are getting increasingly cautious amid increasing economic uncertainty, tariff speculation, and overall wallet fatigue.
But the tale behind the headlines is more complex. Certain parts of the retail world, particularly those serving value-focused or internet-bright shoppers, are not only holding their own, but doing well. And savvy fund investors are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">capitalizing on ETFs</a> tied to those robust categories.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ETFs That Defied The Trend</h2>
Let&#8217;s dissect the bright spots, and the ETFs set to take advantage.
E-Commerce Keeps Clicking
ETF to Watch: ProShares Online Retail ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ONLN#NYSE">ONLN</a>)
Top Stock Exposure: Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>)- 24.26% weightage
<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li></li>
</ol>
As shoppers shunned physical locations and hunted for bargains online, e-commerce remained steadfast. ONLN, an ETF that follows online and non-store retailers, became popular. With a stake in players such as Amazon, the ETF capitalizes on digital convenience trends that seem resistant to tariff shakes.
Why it works: In a shaky economy, consumers don&#8217;t totally abandon their dopamine fixes, they just want it with free shipping.
Miscellaneous Retail Pops
ETF to Watch: VanEck Retail ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTH#NASDAQ">RTH</a>)
Top Stock Exposure: Amazon- 20.61% weightage
<ol start="3" class="wp-block-list">
<li></li>
</ol>
From novelty items to party favors, miscellaneous stores played strongly. Amazon, a player in this category, is its top holding. The RTH ETF, which tracks a wide range of retail players including specialty chains, picks up on this trend.
Home Sweet (Well-Furnished) Home
ETF to Watch: iShares U.S. Consumer Focused ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEDI#BATS">IEDI</a>)
Top Stock Exposure: Amazon- 10.7% weightage
<ol start="4" class="wp-block-list">
<li></li>
</ol>
While housing starts and permits have been weak, furniture sales have been strong. IEDI, an ETF that offers exposure to a diversified portfolio of consumer-facing companies, is poised to ride this trend. Some are passing on the house but still buying new furniture to upgrade their present homes. Home Depot (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) is the top holding in the fund, with a 10.7% weightage.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What&#8217;s Holding Back Retail</h2>
Outside of auto sales, retail still declined 0.3%, below forecasts for a modest gain. Major-ticket items such as autos and home improvement products were hit hard as consumers retreated. A lot of the March spending blowout, experts say, was probably front-loaded — caused by fear of higher prices as a result of expected tariffs tied to President Trump&#8217;s &#8220;liberation day&#8221; declaration in April.
In May, that urgency dissipated. Consumers were more discerning, choosing convenience, value, and low-cost indulgences.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Selective Resilience Is The New Growth</h2>
The wider retail narrative might be fading, but zoom in and you&#8217;ll discover islands of resilience, and ETF opportunities specific to each. From digital supremacy to fast fashion and value-led stores, consumer behavior is changing, not vanishing.
These ETFs provide exposure, yes, but insulation, enabling investors to avoid the retail carnage and access where demand resides in reality today.

Consumer Spending Slips, But These Niche Retail ETFs Are Defying The Downtrend

Realty Income Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/O#NYSE">O</a>) has become something of a gold standard for investors who are chasing monthly income.
It's one of the few publicly traded companies with the guts, and the track record, to trademark its nickname: The Monthly Dividend Company&#xAE;. With more than 15,600 commercial properties and over 660 consecutive monthly dividend payments under its belt, Realty Income is a REIT investors turn to when they want predictable income, even in unpredictable markets.
But there's another perk Realty Income offers its shareholders that doesn't show up in the yield column, and many investors don't even realize they're benefiting from it.
It's called depreciation, and as most real estate investors know, it can be one of the most powerful tax advantages available.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Dividend Breakdown That Tells The Bigger Story</h2>
In 2024, Realty Income paid out $3.126 per share in dividends, more than 126% of its estimated taxable income. That may sound like a red flag at first, but it&#8217;s actually a feature of REIT taxation, not a flaw.
REITs are required to distribute at least 90% of their taxable income to shareholders in exchange for avoiding corporate income tax. But "taxable income" and "cash flow" are two very different things.
Thanks to depreciation, a non-cash expense that reduces taxable income without reducing actual earnings, REITs like Realty Income can pay out more in dividends than they report in taxable income. When that happens, the portion of dividends that are greater than the taxable income are treated differently.
Here's how that played out for shareholders last year:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>$2.17598 per share was classified as ordinary income</li>
<li>$0.94952 per share was classified as a nontaxable distribution</li>
</ul>
That nontaxable portion isn't free money. It reduces the investor's cost basis in the stock, which can lead to higher capital gains taxes if and when the shares are sold. But for long-term holders, that trade-off can be more favorable than paying ordinary income tax every year on the full dividend amount.
In short: depreciation lets investors defer taxes today and potentially pay a lower rate later.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Realty Income Is A Favorite Among REIT Investors</h2>
Most investors are drawn to Realty Income for its reliable dividend and consistent growth.
Earlier this month, the company announced its 131st dividend increase since being listed on the NYSE, bumping the monthly payout from $0.2685 to $0.2690 per share. That may not sound like much, but when you compound reliable growth over decades, it adds up.
Despite ongoing challenges in the real estate market, analysts still see upside for the stock. Recent price targets from UBS, Scotiabank, and Wedbush suggest an average price target of $60.33, compared to the current price near $57.75. And that's on top of a 5.61% yield.
Realty Income isn't just a favorite among retail investors, it's also a sizable holding for several large institutional investors, like Vanguard Group Inc, BlackRock Inc. and State Street Corporation, which collectively hold nearly 300 million shares valued at over $17 billion.&nbsp;
But this isn't the only real estate play that's been gaining the attention of major Wall Street firms.&nbsp;
In 2024, there were more than $1.1 billion in securitizations for an asset class that has been flying under the radar until recently, and that number is expected to more than double this year.
This <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/wall-street-quietly-moved-into-a-34-trillion-market-now-accredited-investors-can-too">emerging asset class</a> lets investors capture the upside of rising home values with a built-in cushion if prices fall.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">There's Over $34 Trillion Trapped In This Corner Of The Real Estate Market</h2>
While Realty Income is built on commercial tenants like Walgreens, 7-Eleven, and FedEx, there's a parallel real estate market that may be even more compelling: owner-occupied home equity.
Americans have more than $34 trillion in equity tied up in their homes, a number that has more than tripled since 2013. And some of the biggest names on Wall Street have figured out how to tap into this growth.&nbsp;
The strategy involves something called <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/wall-street-quietly-moved-into-a-34-trillion-market-now-accredited-investors-can-too">Home Equity Agreements</a> (HEAs), and if you've never heard of this before it's because individual investors have been excluded from participating in this growing market. Until now anyway…
One of the first companies to begin operating in the home equity market recently launched a new fund available to individual accredited investors – <a href="https://nada.sjv.io/c/1193480/3013486/19981">U.S. Home Equity Fund I</a>. The fund is targeting a 14%-17% net IRR to investors with a strategy that can provide positive returns even in a market downturn.&nbsp;

How Realty Income Investors Are Benefiting From One Of Real Estate's Most Overlooked Tax Advantages

Wells Fargo's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>) short percent of float has fallen 8.4% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 38.81 million shares sold short, which is 1.2% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.11 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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Wells Fargo 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 Wells Fargo'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>, Wells Fargo's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 0.90%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

In the current session, Lululemon Athletica Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>) is trading at $229.00, after a 2.64% drop. Over the past month, the stock fell by 28.65%, and in the past year, by 26.67%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750359618_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>A Look at Lululemon Athletica P/E Relative to Its Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Lululemon Athletica has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 58.67 of the Textiles, Apparel &amp; Luxury Goods industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750359618_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

In an age of hot stock tips and perpetually changing fund strategies, the just-launched Rainwater Equity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RW#NYSE">RW</a>) is taking a more subdued sort of confidence, one predicated on steady recurring revenue, consistent leadership, and the value of doing what has worked before.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/25/06/46005846/how-to-invest-in-fannie-maes-comeback-with-housing-focused-etfs">How To Invest In Fannie Mae&#8217;s Comeback With Housing-Focused ETFs</a>
Led by Joseph R. Shaposhnik, a veteran TCW portfolio manager with an impressive record, Rainwater is making a move against what it believes are the mutual fund industry&#8217;s greatest transgressions: over-diversification, style drift, and surprise tax charges. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">The fund</a> comes with a cornerstone contribution from Bill Miller, the venerable investor who managed to beat the S&amp;P 500 for 15 consecutive years at Legg Mason.
With an expense ratio of 1.25%, the game plan of the fund is to acquire a closely held cluster of businesses whose customers continue to return. We&#8217;re referring to companies with subscription or contract-based models, software firms, trash haulers, auto part producers, and exchanges, that are apt to provide free cash flow as regularly as a clock. The portfolio will own only 20 to 30 such names, focusing on quality rather than quantity, and regularity rather than flash. 
In contrast with the index-hugging crowds, Rainwater&#8217;s approach is founded on holding onto high-conviction views for the long term, not playing follow-the-lead headlines for a quarter. Shaposhnik focuses on a low-turnover, tax-savvy strategy that&#8217;s half about compounding over time and half about not messing things up unnecessarily.
In addition to the portfolio building, the fund relies heavily on alignment — not only in principle but in practice. Shaposhnik has his own money in the ETF, and there are no performance fees or complicated overlays. Just a disciplined, concentrated approach with the long-term investor in mind.
And while the ETF space isn't exactly short on new entrants, Rainwater's lineage gives it added weight. It joins a growing list of firms launched by former TCW managers, following the footsteps of others who turned boutique spinouts into marquee franchises.
For fatigued financial advisers of style drift and tax theatrics, and for clients who prefer steady, compoundable growth to rollercoaster experiences, Rainwater&#8217;s strategy might seem like, a sip of fresh water.

Bill Miller-Backed Rainwater ETF Bets On Boring—And That's The Point

In 2025, cannabis isn't a gold rush. It's a grind.
Most stocks are down more than 90% from their highs. Capital is tight. Retail shelves are crowded with low-margin products. At this year's Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference in Chicago, the optimism of earlier cycles gave way to something more sober: survival talk.
Two industry veterans, Rachel Wright, CPA and founder of Verdant Strategies and 420 CPA, and Seth Yakatan, founder of Katan Associates International, offered candid, unfiltered perspectives on what's really happening behind the scenes. Wright, one of the earliest CPAs to specialize in cannabis, works closely with operators navigating complex tax rules, compliance and expansion. Yakatan, a fixture in capital markets and early-stage investing, has guided dozens of companies through growth, collapse and realignment.
They're still standing. And they're not sugarcoating anything.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Chaos To Compliance: &#8216;We Actually Have Banking Now&#8217;</h2>
When Wright first started working in cannabis more than a decade ago, most businesses didn't have books — or if they did, they were a mess.
"We would have to essentially create books for people based on information that we had — POS systems, if they had a cash ledger, things like that," she said. "Fast forward a few years, now we actually do have banking… we also have real legit payroll companies that are supporting the industry."
The maturation of professional services, from accounting to legal support, is helping operators run cleaner, more efficient businesses. But Wright says success still hinges on who's in charge.
"Sometimes the founders need to step aside and hire the professionals," she said. "And let the professionals do what the professionals do."
Operational discipline isn't optional anymore. She cited price compression across all markets as one of the biggest threats, especially in newer states like New York, where companies don't get a long runway before margin pressure kicks in. "You have to learn how to operate a real business. Data is key. Cash is king. Managing that is really, really key."
Over the last 12 months, Wright says her firm helped save cannabis clients more than $50 million through tax amendments and audit work. And despite years of industry lobbying to eliminate Section 280E of the federal tax code, she doesn't see it as a death sentence.
"I think 280E is navigable," she said. "I don't see it as much of a problem — and not as much of a motivation to reschedule."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">&#8216;If The Government Gives, It's Going To Take Away&#8217;</h2>
That last point surprised many attendees. While most operators have called for federal rescheduling to fix 280E burdens, Wright takes a contrarian stance.
"I want to preserve the small and medium-sized businesses. We don't want 7-Elevens carrying cannabis," she said. "I like to preserve the culture — the people who've been in this industry for a long time."
For Wright, rescheduling isn't a guaranteed win. It's a trade-off.
"If the government gives, it's going to take away," she warned. "It's not going to give a free carrot to us at all. It's going to come with a price."
That price, in her view, could be new excise taxes that ultimately harm small businesses more than 280E ever did.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">&#8216;Don't Believe The Hype&#8217;: Yakatan On Capital, THCA And Europe</h2>
Seth Yakatan didn't mince words either.
"You're at a really tough spot in the industry," he said. "The models that were underwritten… haven't largely worked. Or some of them haven't worked."
For existing operators, his advice is simple: "Go in and dominate the markets you're in and hold serve."
For new investors? Proceed with caution.
"I'm telling them to analyze each macro state-level economy that they're looking at," he said. "Base your future investment judgment on historical survival performance."
When asked about hemp-derived THCA products, a booming but controversial segment, Yakatan was blunt:
"Don't believe the hype. Cannabis and hemp are not markets for tourists. Stay out if you're not in. And if you're in, you know what you know."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Hype vs. Reality: Where The Smart Money's Looking</h2>
Yakatan says there's still opportunity, especially in private lower-middle market companies with functioning models, but it's no longer a race for scale.
"It's a game of pennies now," he said. "Pennies add up."
On the product side, he flagged one trend that's both overhyped and legitimate: infused pre-rolls. Brands like Jeter, Stiiizy and Aura are dominating SKU velocity, and two-gram disposable vapes are next.
"In markets where they're not [common], they're going to come," he said.
Wright echoed the importance of staying agile across geographies, product verticals and structure. Whether asset-light or asset-heavy, she said, the best strategy depends on the market.
"We need to evolve geographically, product, service offering, verticals," she said. "In some states, you might want to go asset-heavy. In others, you might want to go asset-light and just get your brand out."
Both Wright and Yakatan acknowledged the pull of international markets, especially Europe. Yakatan called Germany's rollout "part of the &#8216;soup du jour&#8217; in news cycles," and cautioned that many U.S. companies are using European hype to distract from domestic struggles.
"Seven of the 30 largest U.S. cannabis companies have a European operation story that's masking other issues inside the business," he said.

Wright, on the other hand, is already active in Europe and says her international tax background made it a natural next step.
"I was ecstatic," she said of cannabis expanding in Europe. "I started planting seeds, getting to know people — movers and shakers — that are already there."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Bottom Line: Run A Real Business</h2>
Wright and Yakatan may operate in different parts of the cannabis economy, but their core message is the same: survive by getting serious.
No shortcuts. No saviors. Just smart, lean, experienced leadership.
"Where I see people failing," said Wright, "is in efficiencies, staffing, leadership team, a full business plan… It's really just like running a business. It's the fundamentals at the end of the day."
