<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.

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>, CenterPoint Energy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.87%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Wall Street Rally Extends Into Third Day: What's Driving Markets Thursday?

CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNP#NYSE">CNP</a>) shares are trading lower on Thursday after the company reported adjusted EPS of 53 cents, which aligns <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/b44974321/centerpoint-energy-reports-solid-q1-2025-results-reiterates-2025-full-year-guidance-provides-updat" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">with the consensus</a>. 
Adjusted EPS declined&nbsp;year-over-year (Y/Y), due to the recovery timing of interim capital mechanisms, which were not accessible during recent rate case proceedings, most of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">which have now been resolved</a>.
Weather and usage were favorable and contributed 5 cents per share Y/Y, which was partly negated by impact of an increased financing costs (4 cents per share) and higher operating and maintenance expense (2 cents per share).
CenterPoint CEO Jason Wells noted that, in the latter half of 2025, the company will begin implementing its &#8220;System Resiliency Plan.&#8221;
&#8220;Houston also continues to be the economic engine driving Texas as we&#8217;ve seen requests for new connections grow by nearly 7GW or 20% since the end of January alone,&#8221; he added.
Outlook: CenterPoint increased its 10-year capital plan through 2030 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">to&nbsp;$48.5 billion (from $47.5 billion).</a>
CenterPoint also updated its forecast for electric demand growth in its Houston Electric service territory, expecting nearly a 50% increase in load growth by 2031.
The company reaffirmed its 2025 non-GAAP EPS&nbsp;guidance&nbsp;of&nbsp;$1.74-$1.76&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43851537/centerpoint-energy-stays-on-track-eps-rises-25-grid-upgrade-planned-and-more" rel="noreferrer noopener">(vs. consensus of&nbsp;$1.75)</a>.
