Corning's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLW#NYSE">GLW</a>) short percent of float has risen 6.84% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 10.68 million shares sold short, which is 1.25% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.67 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>Corning Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1736191811_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Corning 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 Corning'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>, Corning's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.06%, 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>

(GLW) - Analyzing Corning's Short Interest

Looking for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/dividends">steady cash flow</a> in 2025? JPMorgan analysts have spotlighted four income-generating stock picks that offer dividend appeal and potential price upside. 
These are: Annaly Capital Management Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NLY#NYSE">NLY</a>), Corning Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLW#NYSE">GLW</a>), Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ET#NYSE">ET</a>) and HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HASI#NYSE">HASI</a>).
Here are the details on their top picks.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Annaly Capital</h2>
With a hefty forward dividend yield of 13.85% (per <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent122024&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro</a> data), Annaly Capital shines as a beacon for income seekers. 
Analyst Richard Shane expects the mortgage REIT to benefit from a gradual yield curve steepening and rising MBS prices as quantitative tightening eases. 
Trading near $19.76, NLY is viewed as a stable dividend play, supported by mid-teen ROEs and rising interest spreads, according to the analyst. His price target for 2025 is $20.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Corning</h2>
Known for its innovation in glass and fiber optics, Corning offers more than shiny screens. 
Its modest 2.38% yield may seem subdued, but JPMorgan's Samik Chatterjee says this tech titan is poised for high-single-digit revenue growth. 
Riding on data center demand, telecom recovery, and AI-driven innovation, Corning's stock—currently at $48.18—has room to climb to $60 by the end of 2025, the analyst says.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Energy Transfer</h2>
Pipeline powerhouse Energy Transfer is turning heads with a forward dividend yield of 7.06%. 
Analyst Jeremy Tonet sees untapped value in its discounted EV/EBITDA ratio compared to peers. 
With fundamentals like Permian egress and natgas logistics firing on all cylinders, ET, trading at $18.70, appears poised to reach Tonet's $23 target, presenting a compelling opportunity for midstream investors.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">HASI</h2>
Sustainability meets income in Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Infrastructure Capital. HASI's 6.29% yield sweetens the deal for this eco-friendly investment.
JPMorgan's Mark Strouse predicts a brighter outlook thanks to its KKR partnership and investment-grade rating. With shares at $28.72, Strouse forecasts a $42 price by 2025 as HASI reduces its reliance on public capital raises and executes on stable spreads.
Whether you're chasing high yields or balanced growth, these four income plays could be the backbone of your 2025 portfolio. 
From Annaly's robust dividends to Corning's AI-driven potential, JPMorgan's picks are all about turning steady streams into rivers of returns.

Price Target

Morgan Stanley Maintains Equal-Weight on Corning, Raises Price Target to $48

As the tech sector pivots from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">AI-fueled growth</a> to a broader market recovery, JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee highlights a cyclical rebound powering upside for traditional IT infrastructure and industrial tech.
Top picks like Dell Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>), Corning Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLW#NYSE">GLW</a>) and Coherent Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COHR#NYSE">COHR</a>) are set to ride the next cyclical upswing from recovering demand in servers, telecom, and industrial markets. 
At the same time, the analyst says Arista Networks Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANET#NYSE">ANET</a>), Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>) and Amphenol Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APH#NYSE">APH</a>) stand to gain from networking and multi-sector recoveries.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why These Three?</h2>
Chatterjee's strategy banks on recovery beyond AI-driven hype. 
<ul>
<li>The resurgence of traditional IT infrastructure demand should position Dell for long-term growth. Infrastructure investments and enterprise upgrades are expected to spearhead Dell's upside.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Corning brings its diversified industrial tech portfolio to the table. With AI-driven telecom growth and a revival in optical and display markets, Corning is poised to shine as end-market recoveries take center stage.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Coherent, a player in the optical sector, rounds out the trio with its diversified revenue streams. Chatterjee points to margin-expansion opportunities and AI-related synergies as key drivers for this pick, particularly as the company works through inventory digestion challenges.</li>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Broader Tailwind Beyond AI &#8211; Arista, Cisco, Amphenol</h2>
The report underscores a robust cyclical resurgence in critical hardware and networking sectors. After experiencing downturns in late 2023 and early 2024, traditional IT infrastructure markets—encompassing servers, storage, and enterprise networking—are showing signs of substantial recovery. The analyst says companies like Arista Networks, Cisco, and Amphenol are strategically positioned to capitalize on these emerging networking opportunities and multi-market rebounds.
The PC market, for example, is expected to shift gears in 2025, with enterprise/commercial refreshes driving mid-single-digit growth. Similarly, the smartphone market, already seeing modest growth in 2024, is forecasted to accelerate next year, boosted by subsidies in China.
On the networking front, datacenter switches and wireless LANs are primed for the most substantial rebounds in 2025, reflecting enterprises' push toward datacenter investments. 
This sets the stage for Arista and Cisco, both benefiting from secular shifts in cloud and AI-driven networking.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Dell, Corning, Coherent Lead The Charge</h2>
JPMorgan's call for a cyclical rebound beyond AI hype highlights a return to fundamentals, with Dell, Corning, and Coherent leading the charge. 
With broader end markets poised for recovery, these names stand out as key beneficiaries in the next phase of tech and industrial growth.
Investors looking for opportunities in a post-AI frenzy market may find this pivot toward a cyclical recovery both timely and lucrative.

<h3>Unmasking the Significance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Considering insider transactions is valuable, but it's crucial to evaluate them in conjunction with other investment factors.
Exploring the legal landscape, an "insider" is defined as any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated by Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This encompasses executives in the c-suite and major hedge funds. These insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be submitted within two business days of the transaction.
Highlighted by a company insider's new purchase, there's a positive anticipation for the stock to rise.
But, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
<h3>Breaking Down the Significance of Transaction Codes</h3>
In the domain of transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> frequently turn their focus to those taking place in the open market, as meticulously outlined in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 indicates a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

The European Commission has opened a formal investigation to assess whether Corning may have abused its dominant position on the worldwide market for a special type of glass that is mainly used to protect the screens of handheld electronic devices, such as mobile phones.
Corning, based in the US, is a global glass producer for many industrial and consumer applications. It produces Alkali-aluminosilicate glass (‘Alkali-AS Glass'), a particularly break-resistant glass mainly used as cover for displays of portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablets, or smartwatches. Corning markets Alkali-AS Glass under the ‘Gorilla Glass' brand, among others.
The Commission has concerns that Corning may have distorted competition by concluding anti-competitive exclusive supply agreements with mobile phone manufacturers (Original Equipment Manufacturers or ‘OEMs') and with companies that process raw glass (‘finishers').
In particular, it appears that in its agreements with mobile OEMs Corning included:&nbsp;&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Exclusive sourcing obligations requiring OEMs to source all or nearly all of their Alkali-AS Glass demand from Corning.</li>
<li>Exclusivity rebates granting rebates to OEMs on the condition that they comply with the exclusive sourcing obligations.</li>
<li>‘English clauses' obliging OEMs to report to Corning on competitive offers, and allowing OEMs to accept that offer only if Corning fails to match the price.</li>
</ul>
Additionally, it appears that in its agreements with finishers Corning included:
<ul>
<li>Exclusive purchase obligations obliging finishers to purchase all or nearly all of their Alkali-AS Glass demand, or an important subtype of Alkali-AS Glass, from Corning.</li>
<li>No challenge clauses preventing finishers from challenging Corning's patents.</li>
</ul>
The Commission is concerned that the agreements that Corning put in place with OEMs and finishers may have excluded rival glass producers from large segments of the market, thereby reducing customer choice, increasing prices, and stifling innovation to the detriment of consumers worldwide.
If proven, the behaviour under investigation may breach EU competition rules, which prohibit the abuse of a dominant position (Article 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (‘TFEU')).
The Commission will now carry out its in-depth investigation as a matter of priority. The opening of a formal investigation does not prejudge its outcome.
In parallel to the opening of proceedings, the Commission has adopted a Preliminary Assessment summarising the main facts of the case and identifying its competition concerns. To address the Commission's con

Reported October 5, 2024 'European Commission Opens Antitrust Investigation Into Possible Anticompetitive Practices By Corning Over Cover Glass For Electronic Devices'

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) disclosed a new round of trades that includes bets on billionaires Warren Buffett, Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk ahead of the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election"> 2024 presidential election.</a>
What Happened: Greene disclosed purchasing multiple stocks on Tuesday, with the trades all made on Nov. 1 and tracked on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/gov-trades/members/marjorie-taylor-greene">Benzinga's Government Trades</a> page for the representative.
Here are the stocks bought by Greene, with each trade disclosed in a range of $1,000 to $15,000:
<ul>
<li>Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>)</li>
<li>Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>)</li>

<li>Digital Realty Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DLR#NYSE">DLR</a>)</li>
<li>Duke Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>)</li>
<li>Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>)</li>
<li>Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>)</li>
<li>Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)</li>
<li>Hershey Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HSY#NYSE">HSY</a>)</li>
</ul>
Greene previously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41266843/marjorie-taylor-greene-boosts-stock-portfolio-with-ai-exposure-buys-jpmorgan-and-this-hot-magnif">disclosed several trades</a> in October, which included buying some of the same stocks, including Berkshire Hathaway, Intel, Tesla and Meta Platforms. In September, Greene <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/09/41031499/marjorie-taylor-greene-stays-loyal-to-trump-keeps-djt-stock-buys-into-warren-buffetts-berkshire-in-l">also bought </a>Berkshire Hathaway and Intel shares.
In May, Greene <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/05/38611874/marjorie-taylor-greene-reveals-new-stock-trades-after-2-year-gap-berkshire-hathway-goldman-sachs">disclosed her first </a>stock purchases in several years, which included Berkshire Hathaway and Hershey shares.
Since May, Greene has been actively trading and adding to positions with a strong interest in technology companies and chip stocks.
Greene's latest positions could raise red flags similar to other investments as she is on the Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation. The representative is also on the Subcommittee on Government Operations and the Federal Workforce.
Knowledge of technology and cybersecurity deals could help several stocks held in her portfolio.

</ul>
Why It's Important: Greene could also be positioning her portfolio based on the 2024 presidential election, a race which sees the representative supporting Donald Trump.
Chip stocks and technology companies were among <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/10/41584466/these-10-stocks-were-the-best-s-p-500-performers-in-2017-when-trump-was-president-will-history-r">the best performing </a>in the S&amp;P 500 in 2017, Trump's first year in the White House previously. Energy stocks <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/10/41606114/10-s-p-500-stocks-were-worst-performers-in-first-year-of-trumps-presidency-will-they-sink-again">underperformed in 2017,</a> which could make Greene's buy of Duke Energy a bit of a surprise if she is betting on a Trump victory.
Tesla is expected to be a company that benefits from a Trump victory. Tesla CEO Elon Musk endorsed Trump for president and could have a role in Trump's White House.
Trump has spoken out against electric vehicles and wants to eliminate consumer tax breaks for EVs. Tesla could benefit from the elimination of subsidies and tax breaks as they could be more harmful to competitors in the electric vehicle space and not hurt Tesla as much as its peers.
While Greene has been actively buying stocks over the last several months, she has not reported selling her shares of Trump Media &amp; Technology (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJT#NASDAQ">DJT</a>), the Trump co-founded media company that completed a SPAC merger earlier this year.
Greene disclosed buying Digital World Acquisition shares back in October 2021, the SPAC that took Trump&#8217;s media company public in March 2024.
The transaction was done with shares trading between $67.96 to $118.80. A tweet from UnusualWhales pins the purchase price at $94.20, meaning Greene is down significantly on her $15,000 to $50,000 purchase in the Trump-linked stock. Shares of DJT trade at $39.13 at the time of writing.
With the latest stock transactions, Greene increased her holdings in technology stocks along with placing bets on Buffett to continue powering Berkshire Hathaway as the stock trades near a $1 trillion market cap.
Not many can say that their investing portfolios are betting on Trump, Musk and Buffett, but Greene can.

Is Marjorie Taylor Greene Betting On Trump Victory? Buys Apple, Meta, Tesla Stocks Ahead Of 2024 Election

JP Morgan Maintains Overweight on Corning, Raises Price Target to $60

In the days leading up to Apple Inc's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41583865/what-to-expect-from-apples-fq4-earnings">highly-anticipated earnings report</a>, a lesser-known stock sent a warning signal to investors regarding the iPhone maker. 
Qorvo Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QRVO#NASDAQ">QRVO</a>), which provides parts for smartphones, reported lower-than-expected as part of its earnings report, raising concerns about Apple's iPhone sales.
What Does Qorvo Do? Qorvo is a key supplier for Apple, providing parts for iPhones, iPads and Apple Watches. Apple buys wireless chips, antenna equipment and ultra-wideband technology from Qorvo. A significant portion of Qorvo's revenue comes from its partnership with Apple.
Qorvo's Report: While Qorvo beat Street estimates on both EPS and revenue, the supplier reported lower-than-expected guidance, which sent the stock tumbling. Qorvo's CFO, Grant Brown, said that he expects revenue and gross margin to be lower in FY25 compared to FY24.
"Looking forward, the flagship and premium tiers in the smartphone market are holding up well, however, content and ramp profiles vary by model, and we are experiencing unfavorable mix," Brown said on the earnings call. "We expect this to continue in the second half of fiscal 2025."

Due to this &#8220;unfavorable mix&#8221;and lower guidance, Qorvo's stock tumbled more than 20% Wednesday morning. Apple shares held up relatively well compared to Qorvo, taking a hit of less than 1%.
An analyst at Benchmark, Cody Acree, lowered his rating on Qorvo from Buy to Hold and removed the price target following the report, <a href="https://www.barrons.com/articles/qorvo-earnings-stock-price-a88b7b64">according</a> to Barron&#8217;s. Consumers are opting for less profitable entry-tier smartphones compared to more profitable premium and mid-tier phones, explaining Qorvo's weak guidance, the analyst reportedly said.<a href="https://www.barrons.com/articles/qorvo-earnings-stock-price-a88b7b64"> </a>

Benzinga's PreMarket Prep, a daily show broadcast to YouTube covering the most significant headlines moving the markets, covered Qorvo's report on Wednesday morning's show.
PreMarket Prep co-host and professional trader Dennis Dick highlighted weakness in other Apple suppliers, as well as Apple's resilience despite seemingly negative headlines.
&#8220;Apple shrugs it off once again," Dick said.
"This stock is the honey badger stock of all stocks. The news flow has been terrible on Apple, it's had a lot of bad news in the last little while. At least rumors that the iPhone wasn't selling, they're talking about the Vision Pro, that's gone really south, then you had the downgrade from KeyBanc last week, they shrugged that off too." Dick said Skyworks Solutions (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>), Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) and Qualcomm Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) are other Apple suppliers showing weakness Wednesday morning following Qorvo's report. Bucking The Trend: Not all Apple suppliers appear to be in the dumps. Corning Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLW#NYSE">GLW</a>), the main glass supplier for Apple's iPhones and iPads, reported stronger-than-expected earnings Tuesday morning, paired with strong guidance. Corning's positive report could be a potential explanation for Apple's resilience despite the disappointing numbers from Qorvo. Read Next:

Wall Street took a breather on Tuesday, with most major indices treading water, while tech stocks saw gains as investors braced for earnings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41579487/amd-q3-earnings-preview-can-ai-server-gains-help-narrow-the-semiconductor-gap-with-">reports from mega-cap companies.</a>
The Nasdaq 100 rose 0.7%, buoyed by anticipation around upcoming earnings from Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), both set to report after market close.
Elsewhere, the S&amp;P 500 was largely unchanged, the Dow Jones dipped slightly, and small-cap stocks underperformed.
In economic news, U.S. job openings dropped by 418,000 to 7.443 million in September 2024 — marking the lowest level since January 2021 and falling short of the market's expectation of 7.99 million.
The Conference Board&#8217;s Consumer Confidence Index surged, posting its largest monthly gain since March 2021. This suggests that while labor demand may be slowing, consumer sentiment remains robust.
Treasury yields continued to climb during concerns over the U.S. budget deficit and political uncertainty ahead of next week's elections. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note hit 4.33%, the highest level since early July.
