도널드 트럼프 당선인이 공약한 광범위한 관세를 부과할 경우, 캐나다는 우라늄, 원유, 칼륨 등에 대한 수출세를 고려하고 있다. 블룸버그의 보도에 따르면, 미국산 제품에 대한 보복 관세와 특정 캐나다 제품에 대한 수출 통제가 가장 가능성이 높다.

Never say never, but it finally looks like inflation is moderating, if not abating, in 2025.
Core US inflation increased by 2.3% in April, slightly lower than the 2.4% annual rate recorded in March. That's the lowest overall inflation rate increase since February 2021, according to US government figures.
That's good news for both consumers and businesses, both of whom historically benefit from more tepid inflation rates. Life and investing are both easier when prices are stable and more predictable.
"Although it is not our expectation, it is possible that tariffs will not cause inflation to pick up," said David Seif, chief economist for developed markets at Nomura, in comments to Benzinga. "If that's the case, then we'd expect the Fed to be able to cut rates sooner than we expect."
Currently, Seif said he expects to see the next Fed interest rate cut in December 2025.
Other economic experts say evidence supports the growth of more profitable sectors during periods of lower inflation.
"Falling interest rates have historically been a tailwind for equity investors, said Robert Johnson, chairman and CEO at Economic Index Associates. 
In the book &#8220;Invest With the Fed,&#8221; Johnson and his co-authors Gerald Jensen and Luis Garcia-Feijoo found that from 1966 through 2023, the S&amp;P 500 returned 16.4% when the Fed was lowering interest rates and only 6.2% when the Fed was hiking rates. Additionally, inflation was markedly higher when the Fed was hiking versus lowering rates (4.4% versus 3.1%), so the difference in real returns to stock investors was even greater.
"The best performing sectors in a falling interest rate environment were automobiles (30.9%), apparel (27.3%), and retail (25.8%)," Johnson noted. "In addition, small stocks outperformed large stocks during falling interest rate environments. The smallest quintile of stocks returned 30.1% during falling rate environments while the largest quintile returned 15.6%."
These sectors perform better because they are primarily related to consumer discretionary expenditures. "When the stock market is doing well, people often spend more because they feel wealthier, which economists call the ‘wealth effect," Johnson added.
As Seif indicates, the economy isn't out of the woods yet, not with the tariff troubles percolating globally. But if you're looking for a short-term advantage or a head-start on an extended stock market play, here's a closer look at a handful of stocks that may benefit right away from a milder inflation rate climate.
Here are the three stocks most likely to benefit from slower inflation. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Duke Energy</h2>
Utilities have historically benefited from lower rates. "Investors could be interested in these as potential income replacements," said Hao Dang, investment strategist at Consilio Wealth Advisors. "Their businesses are also debt-funded, so lower rates could make things cheaper to run."
That's where Duke Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>) comes in.
The Charlotte, N.C.-based utilities giant is a big energy player. It has a $90.9 market cap with bandwidth – it delivers electricity to 8.2 million consumers and provides gas to 1.6 million customers, primarily in the US Midwest and Southeast. It's also in robust growth mode with expected earnings of $1.26 per share for this quarter, translating into a 6.8% growth rate yearly. Toss a hefty 3.56 dividend yield income into the mix, and investors looking for an element of growth should take a closer look at DUK.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Goldman Sachs</h2>
The financial sector is also worth closer examination when inflation is moderating.
"Lower rates typically lead to more deal flow, increased leverage and appetite for private equity activity," said Julia Khandoshko, CEO at Mind Money, an investment technology and financial engineering company.
Khandoshko points to one investment banking titan right now that excels in the deal generation and execution realm.
"In financials, a potential rebound in IPOs and M&amp;A this year makes Goldman Sachs particularly interesting," she noted.
Goldman Sachs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) stock has been sluggish so far in 2025, down 9.8% in the past months, but it bounced back in the past month, with shares up 16.5%. Goldman is a signature name in the finance and banking sector and is highly likely to prosper from more robust mergers and acquisitions and initial public offerings &#8211; both hallmark deals in times of tamer inflation.
Goldman has certainly been good to its investors, returning 27.75% on an annualized basis over the past five years and outperforming the stock market by 12.73% over the same time frame.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Amazon</h2>
In lower inflation periods, consumers open their pocketbooks and spend more money. In this digital age, there's no more likely place for shoppers to hit "buy" than on Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), the $2.19 trillion market cap behemoth.
The timing may be right to get in on a retail and AI stock that's down 7.15% year-to-date.
"Amazon benefits greatly from the strengths and rapid evolution of the e-commerce sector and high-margin AWS growth," Khandoshko said.
Amazon's stock may be off balance in 2025, but its financials seem squarely in place. Its gross profit of $78.7 billion is almost five times the size of its nearest competitors, and its 8.62% revenue growth more than doubles the sector average of 4.25%.
Additionally, AMZN excels in other business markets. Its cloud computing service, for example, is the largest cloud operation globally, with an approximate 30% market share. In that realm, Amazon Web Services is the crown jewel with revenues of $29.3 billion (up 17%) in the previous quarter and operating income up 22% over the same period.
Tracking a group of 67 analysts shows a $240 target price for AMZN, with a high ceiling of $305.00 per share. The low target price is $195 per share, not far off Amazon's current $200 share price.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">One Note of Caution</h2>
While it appears inflation is in check, for now at least, investors should keep a close eye on key metrics like the US Consumer Price Index, the Producer Price Index and the Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index, all of which closely track consumer and business pricing trends.
"Although inflation has eased from its previous highs, the Federal Reserve is being careful about cutting rates," said John Murillo, chief dealing officer of B2BROKER, a global fintech solutions provider for financial institutions. "Just earlier this month, they decided to keep rates steady, which left some investors feeling let down as they were hoping for a decrease."
Murillo says the Fed has a valid reason to be cautious, as the decline in oil prices created the main disinflationary impact year-to-date. "This decline, although helpful for the U.S. economy in general, is very detrimental for low-margin oil producers — like Occidental Petroleum, Marathon Oil, Valero Energy, and other alternative oil names," he noted. "Even now, crude prices have rebounded around 9% since May 5, giving these companies a chance to recover their losses."
If the next reading of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) comes in higher than expected, that may cause the Fed to think twice about cutting interest rates. "Since crude oil is already bottoming out, a higher CPI number could push back any potential rate cuts, as policymakers need to determine if inflation is under control," Murillo added.

Duke Energy's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>) short percent of float has fallen 3.62% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 10.35 million shares sold short, which is 1.33% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<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 Duke Energy 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 Duke Energy'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>, Duke Energy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.52%, 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>

How Do Investors Really Feel About Duke Energy?

The security of publicly traded U.S. solar companies is in focus as Chinese communication devices were found in critical renewable energy infrastructure, particularly power inverters.
What Happened: These devices, discovered during security checks of equipment, bypass typical firewall protections despite remote access capabilities being standard for updates and maintenance, reported Reuters.
Communication devices have been found in the batteries of several Chinese suppliers over the last nine months, as per the report.
The U.S. Department of Energy said that while these features and functionality &#8220;may not have malicious intent, it is critical for those procuring to have a full understanding of the capabilities of the products received.&#8221;
Some U.S.-based solar companies that could be in focus by the presence of undocumented devices in their supply include the following.

The six Chinese companies targeted included Contemporary Amperex Technology Company, BYD Company, Envision Energy, EVE Energy Company, Hithium Energy Storage Technology Company, and Gotion High-tech Company.

In total, that's more than 50 different stocks bought and disclosed by Greene in the latest filing. Based on the purchase range of $1,001 to $15,000, this would make the transaction range over $50,000 and up to more than $800,000.

Why It's Important: Members of Congress are allowed to buy and sell stocks as long as they properly disclose the transaction.
The process has drawn scrutiny from the public and retail investors as members of Congress could have inside information and time their trades accordingly. Committee assignments in particular, often draw red flags from investors.
Greene serves on the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and the House Committee on Homeland Security with several subcommittee appointments. The congresswoman's past trade in technology and cybersecurity stocks has drawn attention with her role within Homeland Security.
Greene&#8217;s past trades of Palantir Technologies and a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44255172/marjorie-taylor-greene-buys-more-bitcoin-etf-shares-ahead-of-trumps-strategic-reserve-executive-order"> Bitcoin ETF </a>have drawn criticism along with the timing of her trades, as she is a close ally to President Donald Trump. 
When asked previously about buying stocks earlier this year that soared days later after Trump announced a pause to tariffs, Greene<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip"> brushed aside the criticism.</a>
&#8220;I think that criticism is laughable. President Trump has been talking about tariffs for decades,&#8221; Greene told reporters when asked about the trades at a recent town hall event in Georgia in a clip <a href="https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/1912456434081480777" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">shared </a>by Unusual Whales. The congresswoman used the opportunity to boast about her stock performance, which ranked her as one of the top trading members of Congress in 2024.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t place my buys and sells," Greene said, citing an agreement she has with her portfolio manager, who handles all the buying and selling of stocks. &#8220;He did a great job. Guess what he did. He bought the dip. And that&#8217;s what anybody that has financial sense does."
Greene also said her portfolio manager did not have inside information, everything was public and a potential tariff pause wasn&#8217;t a secret.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has reintroduced legislation that would ban members of Congress from trading or holding individual stocks.
The bill is known as the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act, or PELOSI Act based on the first letter of each of the main words. The name takes aim at the congresswoman and former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).  
&#8220;Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve — not day trading at the expense of their constituents,&#8221; Hawley&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-reintroduces-pelosi-act-to-ban-congress-from-trading-stocks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a>. &#8220;Americans have seen politician after politician turn a profit using information not available to the general public.&#8221;
Hawley said the bill will help &#8220;restore Americans&#8217; trust in our nation&#8217;s legislative body.&#8221;
Hawley&#8217;s bill is being reintroduced as President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://time.com/7280114/donald-trump-2025-interview-transcript/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said&nbsp;</a>he would support such a ban.
&#8220;Well, I watched Nancy Pelosi get rich through insider information, and I would be okay with it. If they send it to me, I would do it,&#8221; Trump told TIME.
Trump said he would sign the ban if the bill passes Congress.
While Pelosi makes headlines for her trades, it&#8217;s important to remember that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;it is both Republican</a>&nbsp;and Democratic members of Congress who are profiting from buying and selling stocks and options while in office, with some trades coming with questionable timing or having a connection to committees they serve on.
In 2024, a list of the top-performing traders in Congress included six Republicans and four Democrats.

Duke Energy shares are trading higher after the company reported better-than-expected Q1 financial results.

Wall Street edged lower by midday Tuesday as uncertainty surrounding trade policies lingered, with investors adopting a cautious approach ahead of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/federal-reserve">Wednesday&#8217;s Federal Reserve meeting.</a>
In a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, President Donald Trump suggested the U.S. may soon begin renegotiating the USMCA. He noted that China is eager to negotiate due to its struggling economy, driven by a lack of U.S. trade, but emphasized the talks would take place &#8220;at the right time.&#8221;
Trump kept his trade stance unclear, suggesting that while some agreements may be signed, there is no obligation to finalize any, and dismissed repeated questions about the number of deals in progress.
The S&amp;P 500 dipped 30 points, or 0.6%, to 5,610, on track for its second consecutive negative session after nine straight gains. The Nasdaq 100 dropped 0.8%, while the Russell 2000 slipped 1%.
Ten of the 11 S&amp;P 500 sectors were in the red, with utilities as the only sector in the green. The U.S. dollar fell, extending its losses for a third straight session.
Commodities saw a broad rally, with oil prices surging 3.6%, pushing WTI above $59, following <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45224883/oil-soars-above-59-as-middle-east-airstrikes-jolt-markets">Israeli airstrikes in Yemen</a>. Gold also rallied, climbing 2.4% to above $3,400 per ounce amid heightened geopolitical tensions.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) reversed Monday's gains, slipping 0.4% to $94,375.

Here's a look at the Benzinga Stock Whisper Index for the week ending May 2:
 Wheaton Precious Metals (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WPM#NYSE">WPM</a>): Precious metal and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44903750/gold-price-soars-to-record-highs-eyes-best-2-month-rally-since-2011-on-blockbuster-etf-buying">gold stocks</a> continue to see increase interest from Benzinga readers and this week's article highlights Wheaton Precious Metals. The company's stock is near 52-week highs, but could head higher with continued record highs for gold and upcoming financial results from the company. Analysts expect the company to report first-quarter earnings per share of 50 cents on May 8. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in four of the last five quarters. Analysts expect the company to report quarterly revenue of $436.5 million, up from $296.8 million in last year's first quarter. The company has missed analyst estimates for revenue in three straight quarters and seven of the last 10 quarters overall. A turnaround in revenue and another beat in earnings per share could strengthen the bullish case for the stock. Several analysts have upgraded the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WPM/analyst-ratings">stock&#8217;s price targets</a> ahead of earnings.
Wheaton Precious Metals shares were down slightly on the week, as seen on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0502">Benzinga Pro chart </a>below, while shares are up over 50% in the last year.

Duke Energy Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>): The utility company saw increased interest from investors during the week, which could be related to the company's size, its industry or its dividend yield. The interest is also likely coming with the company set to report first-quarter financial results on May 6. Analysts expect the company to report earnings per share of $1.61, up from $1.44 in last year's first quarter. The company has missed earnings per share estimates in six of the last 10 quarters. Analysts expect the company to report revenue of $8.06 billion, up from $7.67 billion in last year's first quarter. The company has beaten analyst estimates for revenue in four straight quarters and eight of the last 10 quarters overall. With the stock trading near 52-week highs, investors will likely be expecting a double beat and not a mixed quarter like many of the previous ones have been.

Nutanix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTNX#NASDAQ">NTNX</a>): The software company continues to see strong interest from readers and after several weeks of consideration as a stock to highlight makes this week's list. The company is scheduled to report third-quarter financial results on May 28, which is several weeks away.

MercadoLibre Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MELI#NASDAQ">MELI</a>): The Latin American e-commerce giant saw increased interest during the week, which could be related to comments made by the company's CEO.

Galperin said Mexico and other countries could benefit, comments that could make the e-commerce company more attractive to investors. MercadoLibre is set to report first-quarter financial results on May 7. Analysts expect the company to report first-quarter earnings per share of $8.30, up from $6.78 in last year's first quarter. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in three of the last four quarters and eight of the last 10 quarters overall.

Cheniere Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LNG#NYSE">LNG</a>): The natural gas company saw strong interest from readers during the week, which comes as analysts have provided mixed commentary ahead of first-quarter financial results. Some analysts raised price targets, while others lowered<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LNG/analyst-ratings"> their price targets</a> ahead of Q1 results set for May 8.
