Piper Sandler Maintains Overweight on Becton Dickinson, Raises Price Target to $280

The S&amp;P 500 is charging into the final week of January at record highs, breaking above 6,100 points as investors digest a cocktail of economic optimism, earnings strength, and major <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">policy shifts from Washington.</a>
At the center of this market euphoria is Donald Trump. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43085323/trump-sworn-in-as-47th-president-declares-golden-age-of-america-begins-right-now">newly sworn-in</a> 47th U.S. president began his first week with a series of executive orders targeting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43086509/trump-unleashes-executive-orders-on-border-security-oil-drilling-domestic-manufacturing-in-first-acts-as-president">trade, immigration and oil</a>. Some orders have immediate effects, others are symbolic, and several <a href="https://www.npr.org/2025/01/21/g-s1-44023/trump-birthright-citizenship-immigration-order-14th-amendment">face</a> legal challenges.
On Tuesday, Trump also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/25/01/43135764/trumps-500-billion-stargate-ai-plan-puts-3-etfs-in-focus">unveiled plans for AI Stargate</a>, a $500 billion project. And on Thursday, Trump appeared in a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKBWckduL2k">video address</a> at Davos, touting that the U.S. will be &#8220;the world capital of artificial intelligence and crypto.&#8221;
Meanwhile, there's a quieter trend playing out: The final week of January has historically been a positive period for stocks, and data suggests a handful of S&amp;P 500 names could be primed for outsized gains.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">January's Final Week Sparked By Optimism </h3>
Seasonality isn't always a reliable predictor in markets, but when patterns persist for nearly a century, they demand attention. 
Data from Seasonax reveals that January has closed in positive territory 60% of the time over the past 97 years, with an average gain of 1.1%.
What's even more striking is that more than half of those gains have occurred in the final week of the month.
Since 1928, the S&amp;P 500 has climbed 0.6% on average in the last week of January, closing higher 61% of the time. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">5 Stocks With a History Of Late-January Gains</h3>
Historical patterns don't dictate the future, but they often coincide. 
And according to two decades of market data, five S&amp;P 500 stocks have consistently outperformed during the final stretch of January.

However, over the past month, the company's stock went up by 3.87%, and in the past year, by 0.26%.

<h3>Becton Dickinson P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</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. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 69.75 in the Health Care Equipment &amp; Supplies industry, Becton Dickinson Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 40.32. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737124210_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.

<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.

(BDX) - Analyzing Becton Dickinson's Short Interest

As part of the company's 2024 investment of more than $10 million to expand manufacturing capacity, new needle and syringe production lines have been installed at the BD plants in Connecticut and Nebraska. One line is already fully operational with additional lines expected to start up in the coming months.
These new lines will boost BD's capacity of domestically manufactured safety-engineered injection devices by more than 40 percent and conventional syringes by more than 50 percent, adding hundreds of millions of units annually to support critical U.S. health care delivery such as hospital procedures, vaccinations, medication preparation and drug delivery to patients. In addition, BD has hired more than 215 full-time employees at its facilities in Nebraska and Connecticut to support the increased production.

President-elect Trump is once again rattling the tariff saber, threatening a wave of new tariffs against trade partners like China, Mexico, and Canada. While the actual outcome of any tariff proposal remains murky, given conflicting statements from Trump administration officials, investors should be prepared to adjust their portfolios once policy crystallizes.
Today, we&#8217;re taking a look at the five stocks to sell ahead of any tariffs on Mexico.
In 2023, the United States imported more than $480 billion worth of goods from Mexico, with more than 50% of the total coming from vehicles, electrical equipment, and machinery. Additionally, Mexican imports to the US include medical equipment, furniture, and perishables like fruit, vegetables, and (of course) alcohol.
Below are five stocks investors shouldn't get too attached to if the harshest of Trump&#8217;s proposed tariffs are implemented. Each of the companies on this list has heightened exposure to tariff risk due to large portions of their production coming from Mexican facilities.
<ol>
<li>General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>)</li>
</ol>
GM is considered one of the Big 3 automakers in the United States, but the days of the big Detroit assembly lines are long gone. Like many car manufacturers, GM has outsourced large chunks of its vehicle and parts production to factories outside the United States in countries like Mexico, Canada, Brazil, China, and Argentina. Some of these plants produce critical parts and systems like transmissions, engine blocks, and other smaller components, but many are used for full-scale production of some of GM's best-selling vehicles.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="367" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132458/GM-1024x367.png" alt="" class="wp-image-722553" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132458/GM-1024x367.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132458/GM-300x107.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132458/GM-768x275.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132458/GM.png 1365w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
For example, the Ramos Aripze assembly plant has produced the landmark Chevy Blazer since 1981 (the newer Chevy Equinox is also made here). Other vehicles with at least some full-scale assembly in Mexico include the GMC Terrain, GMC Sierra, and Chevy Silverado. And here's a double whammy &#8211; GM brands like Cadillac and Buick also have significant exposure to China. GM is far from the only American carmaker that could face pressure from tariffs, but its stock isn't well-positioned to absorb added costs or a sales slowdown.
<ol start="2">
<li>Whirlpool Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHR#NYSE">WHR</a>)</li>
</ol>
If you're reading this article at home, you're likely within shouting distance of a Whirlpool product. The company sells major household appliances like washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, refrigerators, stoves, ovens, and smaller devices like blenders and mixers. Whirlpool sells these items under its own brand name but also popular US brand models like Maytag, KitchenAid, and Jenn-Air.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="368" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132505/WHR-1024x368.png" alt="" class="wp-image-722554" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132505/WHR-1024x368.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132505/WHR-300x108.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132505/WHR-768x276.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132505/WHR.png 1358w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Whirlpool is a multinational company with plants and offices worldwide, but given the threat of tariffs, its manufacturing presence in Mexico is hard to ignore. Four of the company's 15 North American production facilities are in Mexico, and in March, it invested $65 million in its Celaya plant. Selling appliances during a volatile trade war can be difficult as many consumers simply put off buying a new dishwasher or fridge in hopes that tariffs will be reduced or their income will rise to meet the higher price. Big ticket items like appliances and cars tend to be most susceptible to tariffs as consumers change their behavior by shopping around or holding out for better deals.&nbsp;
<ol start="3">
<li>Constellation Brands (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STZ#NYSE">STZ</a>)</li>
</ol>
Tariffs might most affect expensive items like cars and dishwashers, but smaller items can also feel the sting, especially if they have no production alternatives. Constellation Brands is an S&amp;P 500 member and one of the largest beverage makers in the world, but a few of its key products are produced from a handful of locations in Mexico, and no alternative currently exists.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="369" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132511/STZ-1024x369.png" alt="" class="wp-image-722555" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132511/STZ-1024x369.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132511/STZ-300x108.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132511/STZ-768x277.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132511/STZ.png 1365w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Constellation Brands sells wine, spirits, and beer, but its breweries are most under fire regarding tariffs. The company exclusively brews beers like Corona, Modelo, and Pacifico in Mexico at two locations, with a third in Veracruz currently in the works. Beers like Corona and Modelo are popular summertime staples, but American consumers have no shortage of beer selections and will simply replace expensive light beer brands with cheaper ones. Additionally, STZ's stock price has been in a downtrend for the better part of the last 12 months, and these headlines certainly don't provide any tailwinds.

<ol start="4">
<li>Skyworks Solutions (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>)</li>
</ol>
When discussing significant imports from Mexico, consumers might not think of the semiconductor industry, but electronic devices and components often come from Mexican factories. Skyworks Solutions is a major American tech firm that produces amplifiers, processors, power management chips, and more at several North American facilities.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="371" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132517/SWKS-1024x371.png" alt="" class="wp-image-722556" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132517/SWKS-1024x371.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132517/SWKS-300x109.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132517/SWKS-768x279.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132517/SWKS.png 1365w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Skyworks has a significant manufacturing operation in Mexico. Its Baja California plant houses a state-of-the-art assembly facility, as well as testing and finishing services. The Baja California plant is a key piece in Skyworks&#8217; business model, as most of its products and devices are completed at this location and then shipped to the United States. SWKS share price has slumped since the days of the 2022 bear market and has failed to regain momentum during the AI bull run over the last two years. A renewed focus on tariffs will unlikely expand the company's fortunes.
<ol start="5">
<li>Becton Dickinson and Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDX#NYSE">BDX</a>)</li>
</ol>
Medical devices are another major Mexican import, and few companies have their hands in more medical cookie jars than Becton Dickinson and Co. The company sells products for infection prevention, medical screenings, biosciences, surgery and procedures, medication delivery, wound care, and more. If you've been to the doctor recently, there's a good chance you were poked and prodded with some type of Becton Dickinson product.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="361" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132524/BDX-1024x361.png" alt="" class="wp-image-722557" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132524/BDX-1024x361.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132524/BDX-300x106.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132524/BDX-768x271.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07132524/BDX.png 1364w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Becton Dickinson has eight manufacturing plants worldwide, but its North American operations consist of facilities in the United States and Mexico. By now, you've likely sensed the theme—the Mexican facilities represent a significant portion of the company's production, and it recently invested millions of dollars to expand capacity at these locations. Medical products from BDX consist of both big and small ticket items, but the sheer volume coming from Mexico could put a dent in the company's bottom line if strict tariffs are implemented.

5 Stocks to Sell Before Trump's Mexico Tariffs

Becton, Dickinson And Co. Agrees To Pay $175 Million Civil Penalty
The Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday announced it had <a href="https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2024-201">settled charges</a> against Becton, Dickinson and Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDX#NYSE">BDX</a>), known as BD, for repeatedly misleading investors about risks associated with its continued sales of its Alaris infusion pump and for overstating its income by failing to record the costs of fixing multiple software flaws with the pump. BD agreed to pay a $175 million civil penalty.

"BD repeatedly painted a misleading picture of its Alaris infusion pump for investors and then doubled down by keeping them in the dark when the device's issues came to a head with the FDA in late 2019," said Sanjay Wadhwa, Acting Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement.&nbsp;
"Public companies have a fundamental duty to accurately disclose material business risks and should expect to be held accountable when they fall short in that regard," Wadhwa added.&nbsp;
The SEC's order finds that BD violated antifraud, reporting, internal accounting controls, books and records and disclosure controls provisions of the federal securities laws. BD agreed to cease and desist from further violations of these provisions, to retain an independent compliance consultant to review and make recommendations concerning its disclosure controls and procedures and to the $175 million civil penalty, without admitting or denying the SEC's findings.&nbsp;
Express Fails To Disclose CEO's Full Executive Compensation&nbsp;
The SEC announced on Tuesday that it has settled charges against fashion retailer Express, Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXPRQ#OTC">EXPRQ</a>) for failing to disclose executive compensation it paid to its now former CEO with Express agreeing to a cease-and-desist order, without admitting or denying the SEC's findings.
According to the SEC's order, Express failed to disclose $979,269 worth of perks and personal benefits provided to its CEO for fiscal years 2019, 2020, and 2021. As a result, Express understated the "All Other Compensation" portion of its CEO's compensation by an average of 94% over the three years. The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier this year.&nbsp;
"Public companies have a duty to comply with their disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation, including perks and personal benefits, so that investors can make educated investment decisions," said Sanjay Wadhwa, Acting Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement.&nbsp;
"Here, although Express fell short in carrying out its obligation, the Commission declined to impose a civil penalty based, in part, on the company's self-report, cooperation with the staff's investigation, and remedial efforts," Wadhwa added.

Financial Crime Weekly: Becton, Dickinson And Co. Pays $175 Million Penalty, Express Fails To Disclose CEO's Full Compensation

Becton, Dickinson And Babson Diagnostics Announced An Expansion Of Fingertip Blood Collection And Testing Technologies For Use By U.S. Health Systems And Other Large Provider Networks In Settings Like Urgent Cares, Doctor Offices, And Other Ambulatory Care Settings

BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDX#NYSE">BDX</a>), a leading global medical technology company, today issued the following statement:
BD has reached an agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to resolve the previously disclosed investigation related to prior public disclosures and SEC reporting regarding the BD Alaris&#x2122; System, which was acquired by BD from CareFusion in 2015 and is part of the BD Medication Management Solutions business.
The SEC Order, the findings of which BD neither admits nor denies, relate to matters concerning BD Alaris that occurred more than four years ago. As part of the settlement, BD has agreed to pay $175 million to the SEC, an amount that was reserved and disclosed in the company's fiscal year 2024 Form 10-K and was contemplated in BD's fiscal year 2025 cash flow plan. No financial restatements are required as a result of the settlement, and the settlement amount does not impact BD's investments in innovation or its previously disclosed capital allocation strategy. BD is not updating its fiscal 2025 guidance as a result of the settlement. The company believes that settling with the SEC is the right course of action to fully resolve this matter and move forward.
The BD Alaris&#x2122; System is safe and effective and is a critical part of health care in the United States. The system has been used for many years to safely deliver IV therapies to patients, including throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The updated BD Alaris&#x2122; System received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in July 2023, and the company continues to update its Alaris fleet.
BD has implemented a number of improvements to its operational and governance processes and related disclosure practices. BD is committed to operating with integrity and the highest ethical standards to produce high-quality, safe and effective products and serve as a trusted partner for its customers and their patients.

BD Resolves Previously Disclosed SEC Investigation Related To Prior Public Disclosures And SEC Reporting Regarding The BD Alaris System; BD Has Agreed To Pay $175M To The SEC; BD Is Not Updating Its Fiscal 2025 Guidance As A Result Of The Settlement

Becton Dickinson's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDX#NYSE">BDX</a>) short percent of float has fallen 9.59% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 1.90 million shares sold short, which is 0.66% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.13 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>Becton Dickinson Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734120016_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Becton Dickinson 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 Becton Dickinson'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>, Becton Dickinson's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.91%, 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/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Becton, Dickinson and Company 10-K Risk Factors Highlight Intensified Global Economic Pressures, Stricter Regulations, Evolving Cybersecurity Threats, Climate Change Impacts, Geopolitical Risks, And Expanded Focus On Competition, Healthcare Costs, And Public Health Crises

On Tuesday, Embecta Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EMBC#NASDAQ">EMBC</a>) posted&nbsp;the fourth-quarter adjusted EPS of 45 cents, beating the consensus of 36 cents and down from 59 cents reported a year ago.

&#8220;We are pleased to report a strong fourth quarter and end to our fiscal year, as we once again delivered results that exceeded our expectations across key financial metrics&#8230;Additionally, the recent launch of our small-pack GLP-1 needles in Germany has gone well, and we are evaluating expanding into other markets,&#8221; said Devdatt (Dev) Kurdikar, Chief Executive Officer of Embecta.
The Becton, Dickinson and Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDX#NYSE">BDX</a>) spin-off announced that it decided to discontinue its insulin patch pump program and plans to initiate a restructuring plan.
In July, Embecta, a manufacturer of disposable&nbsp;insulin pen needles&nbsp;and syringes, said it is considering a potential sale following a significant drop in its share price since being spun off from health tech <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/07/39916116/insulin-device-maker-embecta-weighs-sale-after-70-share-decline-following-becton-dickinson-spin-off" rel="noreferrer noopener">giant&nbsp;Becton, Dickinson</a>.
&#8220;We intend to concentrate our resources on our core business and to prioritize our free cash flow towards paying down debt, which we expect will give us the financial flexibility needed for future investments,&#8221; Kurdikar said.
Embecta expects between $25 million and $30 million in pre-tax, cash charges for planned workforce reductions and other associated costs from the discontinuation of its patch pump program.
In total, Embecta expects between $35 million and $45 million in pre-tax charges in 2025 related to its restructuring plan. It anticipates completing the restructuring in the first half of 2025. Embecta projects annual cost savings of $60 million to $65 million from this restructuring.
Given the organizational restructuring plan, the company has postponed its Analyst &amp; Investor Day to Spring 2025.
Guidance: Embecta says that for the fiscal year 2025, excluding the Patch Pump program, revenues are expected to be $1.093 billion—$1.11 billion compared to a consensus of $1.12 billion, with an adjusted EPS of $2.70—$2.90 versus the consensus of $2.27.
Price Action: EMBC stock is up 33.5% at $19.23 at last check Tuesday.

Becton Dickinson Spinoff Embecta Stops Insulin Patch Pump Program, Plans Restructuring, Stock Jumps

On CNBC's &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mad-money-lightning-round">Mad Money Lightning Round</a>,&#8221; Jim Cramer said Altria Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MO#NYSE">MO</a>) is &#8220;undervalued,&#8221; but he is not going to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MO/guidance">recommend tobacco stocks</a>.
On Oct. 31, the company reported third-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $1.38. It beat the street view of $1.35. Quarterly sales of $5.334 billion (+1.3%) beat the analyst consensus estimate of $5.326 billion.
Cramer recommended selling Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>).
Super Micro Computer filed a FormNT 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission, indicating that it's unable to file its 2025 fiscal-year first-quarter earnings on time.
When asked about The Boeing Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), he said, &#8220;I prefer not to be in a stock that is going to lose a lot of money for a long time.&#8221;
According to Reuters, the company reportedly begins issuing layoff notices to employees affected by a major restructuring plan. The plan, which aims to reduce Boeing's global workforce by 17,000 jobs—approximately 10% of its total—comes as the heavily indebted aerospace <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/41950702/boeing-reportedly-plans-furloughs-whats-going-on">giant seeks to cut costs</a>.
Becton, Dickinson and Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDX#NYSE">BDX</a>) has &#8220;broken down severely,&#8221; Cramer said. &#8220;If Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is going to be the head of HHS, then it's going to hurt a lot of vaccines, it could hurt a lot of their business.&#8221;
On Nov. 7, the company posted better-than-expected results for its fourth quarter.
&#8220;They have a lot of phase one stuff, and phase one is might early. Too early for me to bet on,&#8221; Cramer said when asked about IDEAYA Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IDYA#NASDAQ">IDYA</a>).
On Nov. 4, IDEAYA Biosciences reported a quarterly loss of 60 cents per share, compared to consensus estimates of a loss of 64 cents per share.
&#8220;I just don't know what is wrong,&#8221; Cramer said about AstraZeneca PLC (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NASDAQ">AZN</a>). &#8220;My god is this thing going lower.&#8221;
On Nov. 12, AstraZeneca reported third-quarter sales of $13.57 billion, up 18% year over year (+21% at constant currency), beating the consensus of $13.09 billion.
Price Action:
<ul>
<li>Altria shares rose 0.3% to settle at $55.39 on Thursday.</li>
<li>Super Micro Computer shares dipped 11.4% to close at $18.01.</li>

Jim Cramer Says This Tobacco Stock Is 'Undervalued' But He's Not Recommending It

The U.S. stock market closed at record highs Thursday after the Federal Reserve's widely expected decision to lower interest rates and Fed Chair Jerome Powell's press conference where he reassured markets by dismissing concerns about his potential resignation or removal following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41823887/powell-dismisses-talk-of-resignation-after-trump-victory-says-policy-is-still-res">election of Donald Trump. </a>
The S&amp;P 500 — as tracked by SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) — closed at 5,973 points, up 0.7% for the day.
Tech stocks outperformed the broader market, with the Nasdaq 100, tracked by the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), surging 1.5% higher to an all-time high of 21,100 points.
Notably, the combined market capitalization of the Magnificent Seven — Microsoft Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Amazon Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) and Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) — soared to over $17 trillion, setting a new peak.
The Dow Jones stalled after Wednesday&#8217;s 3.6% rise, while small caps eased 0.4% following a 5.8% jump the previous day.
Top-performing sectors in the S&amp;P 500 were technology, up 1.8%, followed by communications services and consumer discretionary, both up by 1.3%. Financials, which rallied the most Wednesday, lagged on Thursday, down 1.5%.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Fed Cuts Rates, Powell Dismisses Concerns Over His Future </h3>
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 0.25% to 4.5%-4.75% as expected, a reduction in the pace of easing after the larger 0.5% cut in September.
The Fed recognized robust economic momentum, with the GDP rising by 2.8% in the second quarter, and resilient consumer confidence.
Powell downplayed weak October employment data, noting that near-zero job growth was largely due to temporary factors like strikes and hurricanes rather than underlying economic weakness.
Powell described the rate cut as part of a "further recalibration" of monetary policy, which he emphasized remains "restrictive." He hinted at the possibility of more easing in the future but refrained from signaling a specific rate cut at the December meeting, stressing a data-dependent approach.
When asked if he would resign if requested by Trump, Powell responded firmly, "No," reiterating that the president does not have the legal authority to remove the Fed chair.
Following Powell's comments, market-implied expectations for a 25-basis-point rate cut in December surged to 75%, recovering from Wednesday's post-election dip.
Treasury yields pulled back sharply, with the 10-year yield dropping 10 basis points to 4.33%, almost erasing the spike from the previous day.
The U.S. dollar weakened 0.7%, while gold prices, as tracked by the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>), rebounded 1.8% after Wednesday&#8217;s 3% slump. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) traded up by 1% at 4:30 p.m. in New York, hitting a record-high of $76,990 during the session.

투자자들이 경제 낙관론, 기업 실적 호조, 트럼프 행정부의 주요 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">정책 변화</a> 등을 소화하면서 S&amp;P 500 지수는 1월 마지막 주에 6,100포인트를 돌파하며 사상 최고치를 경신하고 있다.
이러한 시장 상승세의 중심에는 도널드 트럼프가 있다. <a href="//www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43085323/trump-sworn-in-as-47th-president-declares-golden-age-of-america-begins-right-now"" target="_blank" rel="noopener">새로 취임한</a> 제47대 미국 대통령은 <a href="//www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43086509/trump-unleashes-executive-orders-on-border-security-oil-drilling-domestic-manufacturing-in-first-acts-as-president"" target="_blank" rel="noopener">무역, 이민, 석유</a>를 겨냥한 일련의 행정명령으로 첫 주를 시작했다. 일부 행정명령은 즉각적인 효과가 있는 것도 있고, 상징적인 것도 있으며, 일부는 법적 문제에 <a href="https://www.npr.org/2025/01/21/g-s1-44023/trump-birthright-citizenship-immigration-order-14th-amendment">직면해 있다.</a>
화요일에 트럼프는 5,000억 달러 규모의 프로젝트인 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/25/01/43135764/trumps-500-billion-stargate-ai-plan-puts-3-etfs-in-focus" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AI 스타게이트 계획을 공개</a>하기도 했다. 그리고 목요일, 트럼프는 다보스 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKBWckduL2k" target="_blank" rel="noopener">화상 연설</a>을 통해 미국이 "인공지능과 암호화폐의 세계 수도"가 될 것이라고 선전했다.
한편, 조용한 흐름도 나타나고 있다. 1월 마지막 주는 역사적으로 주식에 긍정적인 시기였으며, 데이터에 따르면 몇몇 S&amp;P 500 종목이 큰 폭의 상승세를 보일 수 있다.
<h3>1월 마지막 주에 대한 낙관론 촉발</h3>
계절성이 항상 신뢰할 수 있는 시장 예측 변수는 아니지만, 패턴이 거의 한 세기 동안 지속될 때는 주의를 기울여야 한다. Seasonax의 데이터에 따르면 지난 97년 동안 1월은 평균 1.1%의 상승률로 60%의 시간 동안 플러스 영역에서 마감했다.
더욱 놀라운 점은 이러한 상승의 절반 이상이 월 마지막 주에 발생했다는 것다. 1928년 이후 S&amp;P 500 지수는 1월 마지막 주에 평균 0.6% 상승했으며, 61%의 기간 동안 상승 마감했다.
<h3>1월 말 상승 이력이 있는 주식 5종목</h3>
과거 패턴이 미래를 좌우하지는 않지만 종종 일치하는 경우가 있다. 20년간의 시장 데이터에 따르면 S&amp;P 500 주식 중 5개 종목이 1월 마지막 주에 꾸준히 초과수익을 기록했다.

1월 마지막 주에 상승할 수 있는 S&P 500 주식 5종목은?

벡톤 디킨슨 1억 7천 5백만 달러의 민사 제재금 지급에 합의
증권거래위원회(SEC)는 월요일에 벡톤 디킨슨 앤 컴퍼니(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDX#NYSE">BDX</a>), 즉 BD가 알라리스(Alaris) 주입 펌프의 지속적인 판매와 관련된 위험에 대해 투자자들을 반복적으로 오도하고, 펌프의 여러 소프트웨어 결함 수리 비용을 기록하지 않아 수입을 과대계상한 혐의로 <a href="https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2024-201">제재를 해결했다</a>고 발표했다. BD는 1억 7천 5백만 달러의 민사 제재금을 지급하기로 합의했다.
&#8220;BD는 투자자들에게 알라리스 주입 펌프에 대한 잘못된 그림을 반복적으로 제시하고, 2019년 말 FDA와의 문제로 기기가 문제가 발생했을 때 투자자들을 어둠 속에 가둬두는 방식으로 상황을 두 배로 악화시켰다&#8221;고 산제이 와드와(Sanjay Wadhwa) SEC 집행부 국장이 말했다.
&#8220;상장 회사들은 사업상의 중요한 위험을 정확하게 공개할 기본적인 의무가 있으며, 이 점에서 미비할 경우 책임을 져야 한다는 것을 기대해야 한다&#8221;고 와드와가 덧붙였다.
SEC의 명령은 BD가 연방 증권법의 사기 방지, 보고, 내부 회계 통제, 장부 및 기록, 공시 통제 조항을 위반했다고 밝혔다. BD는 이러한 조항에 대한 추가 위반을 중단하고, 공개 통제 및 절차에 관한 검토 및 권장 사항을 제공하기 위해 독립적인 규정 준수 컨설턴트를 고용하며, 1억 7천 5백만 달러의 민사 제재금에 동의했다. BD는 SEC의 조사 결과에 대해 인정하거나 부인하지 않았다.
익스프레스는 CEO의 전체 임원 보상을 공개하지 않음
SEC는 화요일에 패션 소매업체 익스프레스(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXPRQ#OTC">EXPRQ</a>)에 대해 현재 전 CEO에게 지급한 임원 보상을 공개하지 않은 혐의로 제재를 해결했다고 발표했다. 익스프레스는 SEC의 조사 결과를 인정하거나 부인하지 않고 중지 명령에 동의했다.
SEC의 명령에 따르면, 익스프레스는 2019, 2020 및 2021 회계연도 동안 CEO에게 제공된 979,269달러 상당의 특전 및 개인적 혜택을 공개하지 않았다. 결과적으로, 익스프레스는 CEO의 보상 중 &#8220;기타 보상&#8221; 부분을 3년 동안 평균 94% 과소계상했다. 회사는 올해 초 챕터 11 파산을 신청했다.
&#8220;상장 회사들은 임원 보상, 특전 및 개인적 혜택에 대한 공시 의무를 준수하여 투자자들이 정보에 입각한 투자 결정을 내릴 수 있도록 해야 한다&#8221;고 산제이 와드와 SEC 집행부 국장이 말했다.
&#8220;여기서 익스프레스는 의무를 다하지 못했지만, 위원회는 회사의 자진 보고, 조사에 대한 협력, 시정 노력 등을 고려하여 민사 제재금을 부과하지 않기로 결정했다&#8221;고 와드와가 덧붙였다.

미국 주식 시장은 목요일(7일) 연준이 예상대로 금리 인하를 결정하고, 제롬 파월 연준 의장이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41823887/powell-dismisses-talk-of-resignation-after-trump-victory-says-policy-is-still-res" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> 도널드 트럼프 당선</a> 이후 사임 또는 해임 가능성을 일축하며 시장을 안심시킨 기자회견 이후 사상 최고치로 마감했다.
SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SPY</a>)로 추적되는 S&amp;P 500 지수는 0.7% 상승한 5,973포인트로 마감했다.
기술주가 시장수익률을 초과 달성했으며, Invesco QQQ Trust(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>)로 추적되는 나스닥 100 지수는 1.5% 상승한 21,000포인트 사상 최고치를 기록했다.
특히, 마이크로소프트(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MSFT</a>), 애플(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AAPL</a>), 엔비디아(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NVDA</a>), 알파벳(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GOOG</a>, <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GOOGL</a>), 아마존(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AMZN</a>), 메타 플랫폼스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">META</a>), 테슬라(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TSLA</a>)로 구성된 &#8216;매그니피센트 세븐&#8217;의 총 시가총액이 17조 달러를 초과하여 새로운 정점을 기록했다.
다우존스 지수는 수요일에 3.6% 상승한 후 주춤했으며, 소형주 지수는 전날 5.8% 급등 후 0.4% 하락했다.
S&amp;P 500 지수에서 가장 성과가 좋았던 섹터는 기술 섹터로 1.8% 상승했으며, 통신서비스와 소비재 섹터가 각각 1.3% 상승했다. 수요일에 가장 많이 상승했던 금융주는 목요일에 1.5% 하락하면서 부진한 모습을 보였다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">연준, 금리인하 그리고 파월 거취 우려 일축</h3>
연방준비제도이사회는 예상대로 금리를 4.5%~4.75%로 0.25% 인하했는데, 이는 9월의 0.5% 대규모 인하 이후 완화 속도가 줄어든 것이다. 연준은 2분기 미국 국내총생산(GDP)이 2.8% 상승하고 소비자 신뢰가 회복되는 등 견고한 경제 모멘텀을 인정했다.
파월 의장은 10월 고용지표의 부진을 일축했으며, 일자리 성장 정체는 근본적인 경제 약세보다는 파업과 허리케인 같은 일시적인 요인에 기인한 것이라고 지적했다.
파월 의장은 이번 금리 인하를 통화 정책의 "추가 재조정(further recalibration)&#8221;의 일환으로 설명하며, 여전히 "제약적(restrictive)&#8221;이라고 했다. 그는 향후 추가 완화 가능성을 암시했지만 12월 회의에서 구체적인 금리 인하 시그널을 보내지 않고 데이터에 의존하는 접근 방식을 강조했다.
트럼프 대통령의 요청이 있으면 사임할 것이냐는 질문에 파월은 "아니오"라고 단호하게 답하며 대통령에게는 연준 의장을 해임할 법적 권한이 없다는 점도 거듭 강조했다.
파월 의장의 발언 이후 12월 금리 인하에 대한 시장 기대치는 75%까지 치솟으며 수요일 선거 이후 하락세를 회복했다. 국채수익률은 급격히 하락하여 10년물 수익률은 10bp 하락한 4.33%로 전날의 급등분을 거의 상쇄했다.
미국 달러는 0.7% 하락했으며, SPDR Gold Trust(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GLD</a>)로 추적되는 금 가격은 수요일 3% 하락한 후 목요일에는 1.8% 반등했다.
한편, 비트코인(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>)은 뉴욕시간 오후 4시 30분에 1% 상승 거래되었으며, 세션 중에 76,990달러로 사상 최고가를 기록했다.
