DoorDash Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DASH#NASDAQ">DASH</a>) shares are trading higher Monday amid the company joining the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/n44207026/doordash-tko-group-holdings-williams-sonoma-and-expand-energy-set-to-join-s-p-500-others-to-join-s">S&amp;P 500. </a>
What To Know: After the market close on Friday, S&amp;P Dow Jones Indices announced that DoorDash, TKO Group Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TKO#NYSE">TKO</a>), Williams-Sonoma Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WSM#NYSE">WSM</a>) and Expand Energy Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXE#NASDAQ">EXE</a>) will join the S&amp;P 500. The changes went into effect before the market open on Monday. 
DoorDash shares jumped as much as 7.5% on the news. The four companies will replace Borgwarner Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BWA#NYSE">BWA</a>), Teleflex Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TFX#NYSE">TFX</a>), Celanese Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CE#NYSE">CE</a>) and FMC Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FMC#NYSE">FMC</a>) in the index. 
When companies are added to major indices, they often see an increase in share prices as index funds that track the S&amp;P 500 buy shares of the newly added companies in order to stay aligned with the overall index.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy DASH Stock</h3>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in DoorDash's case, it&#8217;s in the Consumer Discretionary sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
DASH Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/dash">DoorDash shares</a> were up 3.58% at $184.45 at the time of publication Monday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

DoorDash Stock Is Rising Monday: What's Driving The Action?

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) will join the S&amp;P 100 index, S&amp;P Dow Jones Indices announced Friday, as the data analytics firm continues its remarkable post-election rally.
What Happened: &#8220;Palantir is proud to be admitted into the S&amp;P 100. Onwards,&#8221; the company stated Sunday on X.
The Denver-based company will replace Dow Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DOW#NYSE">DOW</a>) in the index effective Mar. 24, coinciding with the quarterly rebalance. Intuitive Surgical Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ISRG#NASDAQ">ISRG</a>) and ServiceNow Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOW#NYSE">NOW</a>) will also join the S&amp;P 100, replacing The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KHC#NASDAQ">KHC</a>) and Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>).
Palantir has emerged as the top-performing S&amp;P 500 stock since President Donald Trump&#8216;s November election victory, surging nearly 60% to $84.82. This represents an annualized return exceeding 184%, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/03/44202991/best-and-worst-performing-sp-500-stocks-since-trumps-election-win">according to Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Market analysts attribute Palantir&#8217;s meteoric rise to its artificial intelligence capabilities and CEO Alex Karp&#8216;s support for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/03/44202991/best-and-worst-performing-sp-500-stocks-since-trumps-election-win">government efficiency initiatives</a>.

Why It Matters: Recent analyst assessments present a mixed outlook. While the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PLTR/analyst-ratings">consensus price target</a> stands at $70.30 among 25 analysts, the three most recent ratings from Wedbush, Loop Capital, and Citigroup average $123.67, implying a potential upside of nearly 46%.
Other significant S&amp;P index changes announced include DoorDash Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DASH#NASDAQ">DASH</a>) joining the S&amp;P 500, while FMC Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FMC#NYSE">FMC</a>) and Celanese Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CE#NYSE">CE</a>) — among the worst performers since Trump&#8217;s election — will be moved to the S&amp;P SmallCap 600.

Palantir Joins S&P 100 After AI-Driven Rally, Stock Surges Almost 60% Since Trump Victory

Financial markets have been volatile since President&nbsp;Donald Trump&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41768178/donald-trump-defeats-kamala-harris-to-win-2024-election">election on Nov. 5, 2024</a>, and subsequent inauguration. Which companies have surged under the new administration and which have struggled?
Best Performers: Six companies in the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) have returned over 30% since Nov. 5, 2024, according to data <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">from Benzinga Pro.</a>
Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) leads the pack, rocketing up 59.91% from $51.13 to $81.76. The Denver, Colorado-based company&#8217;s annualized return is over 184%. The retail investor darling has capitalized on AI trends and CEO Alex Karp&#8217;s support for Elon Musk&#8217;s government efficiency efforts, which he defended as a push to eliminate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43806845/palantir-ceo-alex-karp-backs-elon-musks-government-efficiency-efforts-calls-him-most-important-builder">fraud, waste, and abuse.</a>
According to Benzinga Edge, the company has momentum on its side, scoring a very high 99 out of 100, though it lags on key valuation metrics, indicating the stock could be overvalued.

</ul>
Worst Performers: Several other S&amp;P 500 companies have fared much worse since Trump prevailed in the November election.
Some poor performers have been impacted by Trump&#8217;s policies. First Solar Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>), a manufacturer of solar panels, has seen its stock decline amid concerns about Trump&#8217;s support for fossil fuels. The Tempe, Arizona-based company&#8217;s shares have sunk 36.41% since Nov. 5, 2024.

Reported Earlier, Celanese Upsizes Debt Offering to $2.6B (Prior $2.0B), Issues Senior Notes in USD and Euro

Celanese's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CE#NYSE">CE</a>) short percent of float has risen 5.53% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 6.51 million shares sold short, which is 9.35% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.99 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.

<h3>Celanese Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1741196723_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Celanese 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 Celanese'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>, Celanese's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.15%, which means the company has more 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>

This Celanese Analyst Is No Longer Bullish; Here Are Top 5 Downgrades For Thursday

Celanese Corporation&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CE#NYSE">CE</a>) shares are trading lower on Thursday after several analysts slashed price forecasts following fourth-quarter&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CE/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">earnings&nbsp;reported on Tuesday</a>.&nbsp;
Celanese reported adjusted earnings per share of $1.45, beating analysts' estimate of $1.20 and sales of $2.37 billion, which came&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/02/43830036/whats-going-on-with-celanese-shares-wednesday" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">in line with analysts' estimates</a>.
The company issued guidance for the 2025&nbsp;first-quarter. It sees earnings per share from 25 cents to 50 cents, versus analysts'&nbsp;estimate&nbsp;of $1.63.
Celanese expects its 2025 second-quarter earnings per share to be about&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">$1 higher than in the first quarter</a>.&nbsp;
JPMorgan analyst Jeffrey J. Zekauskas lowered the price forecast from $92 to $54 with a Neutral rating.
The analyst writes that Celanese is facing simultaneous challenges in earnings, cash flow, and credit.&nbsp;
The company has exposure to the automotive industry in Europe and the U.S., where demand is expected to remain flat. 
Zekauskas says that the Acetyl Chain segment may experience pricing pressure in 2025, as lower spot pricing in 2024 impacts large customer contract resets.&nbsp;
Additionally, the new acetic acid capacity in China could exert downward pressure on pricing in the medium to long term, adds the analyst.
The analyst says he recommends waiting for greater earnings stability and predictability.&nbsp;
As a result, Zekauskas revised the 2025 EPS forecast down to $6.30 from $9.05.
Other&nbsp;analyst&#8217;s&nbsp;price forecast/rating revisions include:
<ul>
<li>Baird&nbsp;analyst Ghansham Panjabi maintained an Outperform rating and lowered the price forecast from&nbsp;$110&nbsp;to&nbsp;$67.</li>
