<h3>Why Insider Activity Matters in Finance</h3>
Insider transactions should be considered alongside other factors when making investment decisions, as they can offer important insights.
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.

Examining transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> often concentrate on those unfolding in the open market, meticulously detailed in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

Shares of companies within the broader tech sector are trading higher, possibly amid overall market strength after President Trump delayed 50% EU tariffs to July. Additionally, the sector may be up in anticipation of NVIDIA's upcoming Q1 report.

Intuit's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTU#NYSE">INTU</a>) short percent of float has fallen 5.44% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 3.79 million shares sold short, which is 1.39% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.54 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.

Wall Street analysts rerated Intuit Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTU#NASDAQ">INTU</a>) after the company reported its third-quarter <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45575402/intuit-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-raised-fy-guidance-company-seeing-exceptional-momentum-across-platforms">results on Thursday.</a>
Intuit reported third-quarter revenue of $7.75 billion, up 15%, beating analyst estimates of $7.56 billion. The QuickBooks and TurboTax parent company reported third-quarter adjusted earnings of $11.65 per share, beating analyst estimates of $10.91 per share.

Intuit expects fourth-quarter revenue of $3.72 billion-$3.76 billion. The company expects adjusted earnings of $2.63-$2.68 per share. 
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Piper Sandler analyst Arvind Ramnani reiterated Intuit with a Overweight and raised the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/INTU/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from $785 to $825</a>.</li>
<li>JP Morgan analyst Mark Murphy maintained Intuit with an Overweight and raised the price target from&nbsp;$660&nbsp;to&nbsp;$770.</li>
<li>Goldman Sachs analyst Kash Rangan reiterated Intuit with a Buy and raised the price target from&nbsp;$750&nbsp;to&nbsp;$860.</li>
<li>RBC Capital analyst Rishi Jaluria maintained Intuit with a Outperform and raised the price target from&nbsp;$760&nbsp;to&nbsp;$850.</li>
<li>Stifel analyst Brad Reback reiterated Intuit with a Buy and raised the price target from&nbsp;$725&nbsp;to&nbsp;$850.</li>
</ul>
Piper Sandler: Intuit&#8217;s third-quarter results came in well ahead of expectations, with revenues of $7.75 billion ($186 million above) and EPS of $11.65 (+$0.70), Ramnani noted. Growth was driven by Consumer growth of +11% (+9% a year ago), Credit Karma +31% (+8% a year ago), and GBS Online Ecosystem growth of 20% (+20% a year ago; Desktop Ecosystem +18% from +14% last year), the analyst noted. 
The company continues to make progress toward the &#8220;done for you experiences,&#8221; which is powered by AI and automation and now expects TurboTax Live customer growth of +24% for the year and annual TurboTax Live revenue growth of +47%, in part due to an AI-enhanced interface, he said.
JP Morgan: Murphy continues to respect and see long-term potential across Intuit&#8217;s multiple franchises and remains constructive on the company&#8217;s positive long-term, fundamental trends, particularly as it drives upmarket and infuses AI across its platform. 
In the third-quarter results, the analyst expressed a positive tone and an expectation for healthy results despite the firm&#8217;s assessment of pedestrian IRS tax filing data. Intuit met and exceeded his expectations with a strong beat and raise, a relatively rare dynamic this earnings season wherein maintained fiscal guidance frameworks have been more common. 
Overall, Murphy&#8217;s enthusiasm remains highest for the QuickBooks franchise and its upmarket momentum, and this segment remains a durable, on-track, high-growth phenomenon at scale. At the same time, the seasonal TurboTax and volatile Credit Karma businesses provided more fireworks in this particular quarter.
Goldman Sachs: Intuit&#8217;s solid third-quarter results, outperforming consensus on revenue (+2%), Consumer (+1%), CK (+25%), and FCFM (+600bps), Rangan noted. The analyst said the stock surge after hours reinforced confidence in the company&#8217;s long-term growth profile. 
Coming out of Intuit&#8217;s tax-heavy quarter, he gave credence to the accelerating momentum in the Assisted category, with TTO Live Revenue growing +47% and now accounting for ~40% of Consumer. Rangan noted this validates TurboTax&#8217;s strategic initiatives around product-led growth and refined GTM motion, solidifying its market positioning across the assisted tax landscape and driving adoption as a price disruptor. 
The analyst further underlined Intuit&#8217;s continued strength upmarket with QBO Advanced and IES +40% YoY, underscoring its ability to capture share in the much larger and relatively uncontested Mid-Market opportunity (>$89 billion).
Looking ahead, the analyst noted additional upsides from Intuit&#8217;s expanding AI roadmap, which introduced AI agents that can unlock incremental upsell and cross-sell opportunities across the product portfolio. As Intuit&#8217;s growth algorithm increasingly shifts from higher volume toward higher ARPC, Rangan remained constructive on the company&#8217;s ability to unlock larger TAMs and pave a longer runway for durable mid-teens+ topline growth and 35%+ FCFM. 
He added that Intuit stands out as a rare asset straddling both consumer and business ecosystems while supplemented by AI prioritization.
RBC Capital:  Intuit reported a strong quarterly result driven by lower-quality Credit Karma followed by smaller beats from Consumer and SMB, Jaluria noted. The analyst said that TurboTax Live customers grew 24%, and revenue increased by 47%, driven by the continued success of the assist tax strategy. 
He noted Intuit experienced strong monetization across complex and straightforward filers, resulting in a 13% increase in average revenue per return. The company optimized its marketing ROI by focusing on higher-quality customers, reducing &#8220;pay nothing&#8221; customers to 8 million (down from 10 million+ last year).
Stifel: Intuit delivered strong results across the board that sent the stock up ~8% after hours as the company&#8217;s move upmarket gains steam, Reback noted. Consumer Tax grew a better-than-expected 11% as TurboTaxLive grew 47%, and within GBS&#8217; 19% growth, IES/QBOA gained 40% Y/Y, the analyst said. 
Management also highlighted a slate of upcoming Agentic offerings with the QB business that should help drive further ARPU gains and increase customer retention, as per the analyst. The lone issue remains Mailchimp as management continues to work through execution challenges, Reback said. However, the analyst noted that the online services segment continues to post strong results powered by the Money platform and Payroll. 
Overall, Reback noted results point to momentum in share gains across the assisted tax category that he expects to continue for the foreseeable future, as well as resiliency within the GBS segment (ex. Mailchimp), which should enable the company to sustain near-term low teens total revenue growth over the coming years.
INTU Price Action: INTU stock was up 8.1% at $720.13 on Friday.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45585283/trump-tariff-threat-hits-europe-stocks-sink-as-50-duties-loom">and European imports.</a>
In a post on Truth Social, Trump threatened a 25% import duty on Apple Inc. if the tech giant doesn't repatriate its manufacturing to the United States. He also floated a 50% tariff on goods from the European Union, escalating concerns of a renewed transatlantic trade war.
Shares of Apple Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NYSE">AAPL</a>) dropped 2.6% in response. The S&amp;P 500 slipped 0.8% to fall below the key 5,800 mark, on track to close the week lower. 
Growth-oriented sectors like technology and consumer discretionary bore the brunt of the selling, while traditionally defensive sectors such as utilities and consumer staples remained in the green.
Volatility spiked as investors turned risk-averse. The CBOE Volatility Index, known as the VIX, climbed 8%, reflecting growing market anxiety. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) wasn&#8217;t spared from the risk-off sentiment, shedding over 2% to trade around $108,700. 
Treasury yields edged down to 5.02%, pushing the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) 0.3% higher as investors sought safer assets.
Gold prices surged 2.1% to $3,362 per ounce, boosted by safe-haven demand and a weakening U.S. dollar. The U.S. dollar index is down 1.8% this week, on pace to break a four-week winning streak.
