Why Budweiser Parent Anheuser-Busch InBev's Stock Is Rising Today?

U.S. stock futures rose on Thursday after two days of advance on Wednesday. Futures of major benchmark indices were higher in premarket.
This followed the Federal Reserve&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45266366/powell-flags-sharp-tariff-shock-elevated-uncertainty-fed-sticks-to-wait-and-see-mode">decision to hold the interest rate</a> steady at 4.25% to 4.5% on Wednesday. 
"The tariff increases announced so far have been significantly larger than anticipated," Fed Chair Jerome Powell said.
He noted that if the tariffs are sustained, they could lead to higher inflation, weaker growth, and a rise in unemployment, directly undermining the Fed&#8217;s dual mandate.
"We don&#8217;t think we need to be in a hurry. We are going to be watching the data. It may move quickly or slowly. But we&#8217;re well-positioned to wait," he said.
Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.31% and the two-year bond was at 3.82%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 79.8% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its June meeting.

Insights From Analysts:
Sharing a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/05/45278334/sp-500-chart-indicates-adding-long-positions-as-expert-says-market-has-found-its-balance?utm_campaign=Watchlist&amp;utm_source=Benzinga&amp;utm_medium=Email"> 10-year S&amp;P 500 chart</a> on X, Jurrien Timmer, Director of Global Macro at Fidelity Investments, offered a simple yet thought-provoking approach to navigating uncertainty.
He suggested considering whether to take a long or short position based on the index&#8217;s historical performance. Analyzing the technical patterns, Timmer concluded that establishing or increasing &#8220;long&#8221; positions appeared to be the more favorable strategy.
Timmer stated that the S&amp;P 500 appears to have gravitated back to this long-term uptrend line. This convergence, according to Timmer, suggests that the &#8220;market has found its balance.&#8221;

Scott Wren, the senior global market strategist at Wells Fargo, stated in his weekly note that &#8220;Further near-term upside in the S&amp;P 500 Index is likely limited, and we expect to see more downside volatility before the tariff uncertainties are resolved.&#8221;
According to Wren, central bankers keep telling us they are "data dependent." That means Chair Powell and the other voting Federal Open Market Committee members need to see the data that tells the Federal Reserve the labor environment is weak and/or inflation readings are coming down consistently.
&#8220;In the meantime, we are looking into 2026 and seeing an economic and earnings recovery. For now, while volatility remains the likely headline, we prefer to focus on quality, like large- and mid-cap U.S. equities, and favor the Energy, Communication Services, Information Technology, and Financials sectors,&#8221; he added.

Shares of consumer staple companies are trading higher following President Trump's decision to implement a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for all countries except China.

Anheuser-Busch InBev's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BUD#NYSE">BUD</a>) short percent of float has risen 7.55% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 4.93 million shares sold short, which is 0.57% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.02 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.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1742404517_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Anheuser-Busch InBev has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Anheuser-Busch InBev'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>, Anheuser-Busch InBev's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.50%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Top 3 Risk Off Stocks That May Plunge In Q1

Among the more remarkable turnarounds that perhaps doesn't quite get as much attention is Anheuser-Busch Inbev SA's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BUD#NYSE">BUD</a>) efforts in righting its ship. About two years ago, the beverage maker suffered blowback when its Bud Light brand <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/23/04/31750302/anti-trans-sentiment-cant-hold-bud-light-maker-down-amid-dylan-mulvaney-controversy-the-">inked a promotional campaign</a> with Dylan Mulvaney, an influencer who documented her gender transition. 
Although the marketing managers likely had the intention of promoting social equity, many conservatives lashed out at what they termed "woke culture," with the uproar leading to red ink for BUD stock.
Fundamentally, Anheuser-Busch was in a tricky position. On one hand, the company could score points with more progressive consumers. At the same time, it risked alienating conservative consumers by wading into political waters. Not only that, Donald Trump and his followers — often called the Silent Majority — have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/44028664/trump-says-he-shut-down-the-ultra-left-cfpb-after-bankers-and-loan-officers-called-him-almost-crying">blasted institutions and ideologies perceived as woke</a>.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/25/03/44143666/us-services-sector-unexpectedly-expands-in-february-despite-slowing-job-growth" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">US Services Sector Unexpectedly Expands In February Despite Slowing Job Growth</a>
To reiterate the point, President Trump's <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/04/us/politics/transcript-trump-speech-congress.html">speech</a> to Congress heavily criticized leftist politics, declaring that the nation "will be &#8216;woke&#8217; no longer." On the surface level, this line of reasoning represents a headwind for BUD stock. However, Trump's economic priorities could ironically make Anheuser-Busch great again.
In fairness, Trump urged conservatives last year to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/36974177/trump-urges-conservatives-to-give-bud-light-a-second-chance">give the beverage maker a second chance</a>. More importantly, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44133917/trumps-says-little-disturbance-possible-due-to-tariffs-in-speech-to-congress-as-gm-tesla-energy-stocks-lift-in-after-hours-trading-auto-industry-to-absolutely-boom">administration's tariffs</a> — which Trump himself doubled down on during the address to Congress — may provide a competitive edge for Anheuser-Busch.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">BUD Stock May Benefit from Multiple Catalysts</h2>
One of the cynical reasons why Anheuser-Busch could keep inching forward is that the tariffs may impose disproportionate hardships on the competition. A clear example of this is Constellation Brands Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STZ#NYSE">STZ</a>), which owns the U.S. distribution rights of the Corona beer brand, a consequence of an <a href="https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/pr/justice-department-reaches-settlement-anheuser-busch-inbev-and-grupo-modelo-beer-case">antitrust</a> settlement.
At the time, Anheuser-Busch giving up the U.S. distribution rights for a popular Mexican beer was a significant hit. Today, under the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44118620/whats-driving-markets-tuesday">threat of an ugly trade war</a>, not having to deal with potentially sharp price hikes for Corona is a blessing.
Another catalyst for BUD stock stems from the core business itself. Anheuser-Busch specializes in low-cost beer and that's a powerfully relevant offering amid an environment of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43499935/worldwide-57-expect-the-next-generation-to-be-worse-off-financially-what-drives-this-economic-pessimism">brewing economic challenges</a>. Now, it's true that the company's Bud Light brand got knocked off the top of the U.S. beer sales ranking. However, the current <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/18/food/bud-light-michelob-ultra-sales/index.html">top</a> seller — the Constellation-distributed Modelo Especial — faces tariff risks.
Even statistical trends seem to favor a position in BUD stock. Ordinarily, using data since January 2019, the security carries a neutral to slightly negative bias. That's because a position held for eight weeks carries a baseline probability of upside success of 49.52% — essentially a coin toss.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/05145951/BUD-stock-probability-gambit-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-810932" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/05145951/BUD-stock-probability-gambit-1024x576.jpg 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/05145951/BUD-stock-probability-gambit-300x169.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/05145951/BUD-stock-probability-gambit-768x432.jpg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/05145951/BUD-stock-probability-gambit.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image by author</figcaption></figure>
However, under the dynamic conditions of sizable momentum (defined as a weekly return between 5% to 10%), the subsequent eight weeks commands long odds of 57.14%. In the past five sessions, BUD is up around 5.4%.
Finally, BUD stock is on a streak of seven consecutive up weeks. Over the past six years, such streaks have only materialized three times. Investors shouldn't read too much into this but so far, this streak has yet to see a trend reversal in the eighth week.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Setting Up an Options Strategy for Anheuser-Busch</h2>
From a psychological and technical perspective, the bulls will likely push for the $70 level. This threshold represents prior resistance. In addition, it's also close to Wall Street <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BUD/analyst-ratings">analysts' consensus price target</a> of $70.60. However, the time necessary for BUD stock to reach this level represents a significant component of the speculation.
Running a guided Monte Carlo simulation based on market realistic dynamics, it's possible that BUD could reach $67.54 by the options chain expiring April 17. For extremely aggressive investors, one could consider the 62.50/67.50 bull call spread.
This transaction involves buying the $62.50 call (at a $205 ask) and simultaneously selling the $67.50 call (at a $40 bid). The sale of the short call will partially offset the debit of the long call, leading to a net debit paid of $165 at time of writing. Subtracting this figure from the difference in the strike prices (multiplied by 100 shares) comes out to a maximum reward of $335 should BUD reach or exceed the short strike price. This would translate to a payout of 203%.
