Shares of energy stocks are trading higher as oil rises amid concerns of Israel-Iran escalation. President Trump denied working on a ceasefire and said everyone should evacuate Tehran.

Hess's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HES#NYSE">HES</a>) short percent of float has risen 24.65% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 11.08 million shares sold short, which is 4.5% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 5.41 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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Hess 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 Hess'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>, Hess's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.50%, 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>

Shares of oil stocks are trading higher amid an OPEC+ decision to keep output levels unchanged.

In a corporate cage match, two of the globe&#8217;s most dominant oil titans are fighting it out for a share of one of the world&#8217;s most coveted oil finds: Guyana. But while Chevron Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>) and Exxon Mobil Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) are in the midst of arbitration, ETF investors may need to hold on tight. This courtroom battle could rock some of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">largest energy ETFs available</a>.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">The Stakes: Oil, Ego — And An 11 Billion Barrel Bonanza</h1>
Behind the fight is Hess Corp&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HES#NYSE">HES</a>) 30% interest in a huge Guyanese oil project, which has roughly 11 billion barrels in projected reserves. Chevron said in 2023 it agreed to buy Hess for $53 billion, a transaction that would put it at the front of the Guyana boom. 
But Exxon, which already <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39479711/exxon-mobil-rakes-in-billions-from-guyana-oil-deal-net-margin-tops-chip-giant-report">co-leads the Guyana project</a>, says it has pre-emptive rights to the stake. Arbitration gets underway in London this week, and sometime in late summer, a panel will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/oil">make a decision</a>.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">ETF Fallout: Who&#8217;s Exposed To What?</h1>
The heavy hitters such as Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>), iShares U.S. Energy ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYE#NYSE">IYE</a>) and Vanguard Energy Index Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VDE#NYSE">VDE</a>) are carrying heavy loads of both Exxon and Chevron, between 35% and 40% combined weighting in each fund.
If either Exxon or Chevron prevails, one can anticipate a pop for these ETFs as the Guyana deal would mean long-term growth assets for the prevailing company.
Hess Corp. is smaller but essential in this saga. ETFs such as iShares U.S. Oil &amp; Gas Exploration &amp; Production ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEO#BATS">IEO</a>) carry meaningful exposure to Hess, and therefore a front-row seat to either a lucrative M&amp;A payday or a disappointing fizz.
Additionally, merger arbitrage ETFs, such as NYLI Merger Arbitrage ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MNA#NYSE">MNA</a>) and ProShares Merger ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRGR#BATS">MRGR</a>), are likely to be betting on the Hess factor already. If the transaction gets delayed or blocked further, one can expect some readjustment.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Beyond the Big Oil Bets</h1>
As Chevron cuts jobs and balances new resources in Kazakhstan and the Gulf of Mexico, it also deals with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/44000386/trump-shuts-down-chevrons-venezuela-oil-permit-tightening-pressure-on-maduro-regime-crude-oil-prices-rise-on-supply-concerns">uncertainty in Venezuela</a>, where an operating license may be withdrawn. Exxon is increasing <a href="https://corporate.exxonmobil.com/locations/guyana/guyana-project-overview">production </a>in Guyana to 1.3 million barrels/day by 2027, greater than North Dakota&#8217;s Bakken Shale.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">One Wrong Move = ETF Domino Effect</h1>
With activist investors watching Exxon and Chevron still under pressure to prove long-term growth, the arbitration&#8217;s outcome could drive major portfolio re-weightings, flows into specific funds or a rise in thematic oil and gas ETFs.
In short, this isn't just a battle over barrels, it's about which ETFs end up doing well and which might need a Band-Aid.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Final Thought</h1>
This Guyana brawl might be happening in a London arbitration chamber, but its aftershocks will be felt through world markets and ETF tickers. For investors, it&#8217;s time to look beyond the barrel and begin peering at the ticker tape.

Activist investor Elliott Investment Management scored a victory on Monday when Institutional Shareholder Services recommended investors elect all four of Elliott&#8217;s director nominees to the Phillips 66 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PSX#NYSE">PSX</a>) board, bolstering the hedge fund&#8217;s campaign for strategic changes at the oil refiner.
What Happened: Elliott, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43614105/activist-investor-elliott-builds-25-billion-stake-in-phillips-66-pressures-for-midstream-spinoff-report">holds a $2.5 billion stake in Phillips 66</a>, has urged the company to divest its midstream business. Proxy advisory firm ISS backed all four of Elliott's board nominees, joining Glass Lewis and Egan-Jones in supporting the activist's push ahead of the May 21 shareholder vote, Reuters reported.
ISS is a top proxy advisory firm whose recommendations guide major investors on corporate votes, often swaying outcomes in boardroom battles.
&#8220;Although the board has been reshaped since the pandemic, important industry perspectives have been overlooked, and there is strong evidence that the board is not willing to exercise independent oversight of management,&#8221; ISS wrote in its report.
The proxy advisor also challenged Phillips 66&#8217;s argument that its integrated strategy delivers superior returns, noting the stock began underperforming peers in mid-2021 and &#8220;has not been able to close the gap.&#8221; PSX shares have dropped 18% over the past 52 weeks, closing at $118.68 on Monday.

Why It Matters: Elliott first disclosed its investment in Phillips 66 in February, expanding from an initial $1 billion position that had already secured a board seat for refining veteran Robert Pease last year. The activist fund&#8217;s larger stake now places it among Phillips 66&#8217;s top five shareholders.
The hedge fund, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40411028/elliott-management-alums-spawn-their-offshoots-amid-rigid-changes-and-increased-bureaucracy-at-70b-h">which manages $70 billion</a>, has a strong track record in the energy sector with successful investments at Marathon Petroleum (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPC#NYSE">MPC</a>), NRG Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NRG#NYSE">NRG</a>), Suncor Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SU#NYSE">SU</a>) and Hess (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HES#NYSE">HES</a>).
Elliott said the ISS report &#8220;fully validates Elliott&#8217;s case for change,&#8221; according to the report.

<h3>Comparing Hess P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Hess has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 18.62 of the Oil, Gas &amp; Consumable Fuels industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>): Loeb cut the stake from 3,700,000 shares in the&nbsp;third quarter&nbsp;of 2024 to 3,450,000 million <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/02/43673006/dan-loebs-amazon-stake-moves-a-look-at-his-trading-shifts" rel="noreferrer noopener">in&nbsp;the&nbsp;fourth quarter&nbsp;of 2024</a>.
<ul>
<li>On May 1, the company reported&nbsp;first-quarter&nbsp;net sales of&nbsp;$155.7 billion, beating a Street consensus estimate of&nbsp;$155.04 billion&nbsp;and EPS of&nbsp;$1.59, exceeding the street<a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45151230" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> consensus estimate of&nbsp;$1.36</a>.</li>
<li>Amazon guided for&nbsp;second-quarter&nbsp;net sales of&nbsp;$159 billion&nbsp;to&nbsp;$164 billion, up&nbsp;7%&nbsp;to&nbsp;11% vs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">street view of&nbsp;$160.91 billion</a>.</li>
<li>Amazon said the&nbsp;guidance&nbsp;is subject to &#8220;unpredictable&#8221; items that include foreign exchange rates, changes in geopolitical conditions and &#8220;tariff and trade policies.&#8221;</li>
<li>CEO&nbsp;Andy Jassy&nbsp;predicted a potential shift in consumer behavior reminiscent of the pandemic era while asserting that the e-commerce <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45158172/andy-jassy-predicts-pandemic-like-consumer-shifts-says-amazon-is-maniacally-focused-on-keeping-prices-low" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">giant is doubling down on affordability</a>.</li>
<li>JPMorgan analyst Doug Anmuth highlighted Amazon's Q1 revenue and operating income which exceeded the high end of guidance, with no significant negative impact from macroeconomic or tariff issues. He also pointed to AWS margins that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45172067/amazon-delivers-q1-on-the-steady-side-of-ok-as-analysts-highlight-aws-ai-demand" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reached an all-time high</a>. </li>
<li>Rosenblatt analyst Barton Crockett labelled Amazon&#8217;s first-quarter as &#8220;on the steady side of OK,&#8221; but flagged the potential for impacts from tariffs which &#8220;could start hitting soon.&#8221; </li>
<li>RBC Captial Markets analyst Brad Erickson also highlighted the growth in AWS backlog and expects acceleration in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45163955/these-analysts-boost-their-forecasts-on-amazon-following-upbeat-q1-results" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the second half of the year</a>. </li>
<li>Year to date (YTD), Amazon fell about 17.11%, vs. the ProShares Online Retail ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ONLN#NYSE">ONLN</a>), which declined about 4.70%&nbsp;over the same time frame.</li>
</ul>
Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>): According to the 13F filings released on Feb. 14, Loeb increased his stake in Facebook's parent company to 665,000, up from 545,000 in the third <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/02/43796723/dan-loebs-third-point-boosts-meta-holdings-now-a-top-4-position" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">quarter of 2024, a 22% increase.</a>
<ul>
<li>Meta reported&nbsp;first-quarter&nbsp;revenue of&nbsp;$42.31 billion, beating&nbsp;analyst estimates of&nbsp;$41.39 billion and EPs of&nbsp;$6.43&nbsp;per share, easily beating analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45117948" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">estimates of&nbsp;$5.21&nbsp;per share</a>.</li>
<li>Meta expects&nbsp;second-quarter&nbsp;revenue of&nbsp;$42.5 billion&nbsp;to&nbsp;$45.5 billion&nbsp;versus&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a> estimates of&nbsp;$44.06 billion.</li>
<li>Goldman Sachs analyst Eric Sheridan pointed to CEO Mark Zuckerberg&#8216;s list of five AI-driven opportunities: improved advertising, more engaging user experiences, business messaging, Meta AI and AI devices – notably, Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses, which saw three times sales and more than four <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/META/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">times active users year-over-year</a>. </li>
<li>BofA Securities analysts see Meta as well-positioned to thrive in a softer macro-economic environment and highlighted the company&#8217;s capex spend as &#8220;building <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45144725/meta-analysts-highlight" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">a foundation for long-term growth.&#8221;</a> </li>
<li>Needham analyst Laura Martin questioned the company&#8217;s long-term terminal value, noting that Meta does not control its distribution or content and faces stiff competition from Apple, TikTok and YouTube. </li>

Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>): Loeb slashed his stake in the company&nbsp;from 870,000 shares&nbsp;in&nbsp;the third quarter of 2024&nbsp;to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/03/44115397/dan-loebs-third-point-slashes-microsoft-stake-analysts-blame-disappointing-azure" rel="noreferrer noopener">600,000 in the fourth quarter</a>.

<li>Microsoft says its focus on cloud services and customer-centric solutions could help the company not only survive a recession<a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45125965" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> but also</a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45125965" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> grow through it</a>.</li>
<li>Microsoft guided&nbsp;fourth-quarter&nbsp;cloud margins to about&nbsp;67%, with intelligent cloud revenue expected between&nbsp;$28.75 billion&nbsp;and&nbsp;$29.05 billion.</li>
<li>Goldman Sachs analyst Kash Rangan says that despite macroeconomic uncertainty and potential tariff risks, the company is set up to post free cash flow growth of 3% and earnings-per-share growth of 17% in fiscal year 2026, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45137383" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Azure maintaining a 30% growth rate</a>.</li>

Amazon, Meta, Microsoft Earnings Put Dan Loeb's Portfolio To The Test

Shares of energy stocks are trading lower amid a drop in the price of oil. Oil fell on reports suggesting OPEC+ agreed to production increases in June.

Wall Street traded lower on the final session of the month, heading for its third consecutive monthly loss as economic data began reflecting the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">impact of Trump tariffs.</a>
U.S. GDP shrank by 0.3% in the last quarter, marking the first economic contraction since 2022 and missing forecasts for a 0.4% expansion. The decline was driven by a surge in imports and reduced government spending.
Labor market data also disappointed. The ADP National Employment Report showed private employers added just 62,000 jobs in April—the weakest gain in nine months and well below the expected 108,000.
By midday in New York, the S&amp;P 500 was down 1% to 5,500, on pace to end a six-day winning streak. Tech stocks in the Nasdaq 100 lagged ahead of earnings from industry titans Microsoft Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>) and Meta Platforms Inc.
Nine of the S&amp;P 500's eleven sectors were in the red, with only consumer staples and health care posting modest gains. Energy and consumer discretionary led the losses, falling 3.3% and 2.7%, respectively.
Commodities were broadly lower. Oil tumbled 3.7% to $58 a barrel, approaching its lowest close since March 2021. Copper—often seen as a gauge of global growth—plunged 5.2% to $4.60 per pound. Natural gas declined 2.5% to $3.17 per million British thermal units.
Bond markets were steady, with the 10-year Treasury yield hovering at 4.17%. Gold dipped 0.3% to $3,330 per ounce, while the U.S. dollar index (DXY) strengthened by the same margin.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) showed resilience, holding steady at around $93,000 despite broader market weakness.
