Shares of banks and financial services stocks are higher after the US and China agreed to a temporary reduction in most tariffs on each other's goods. A reduction in tariffs could alleviate macro uncertainty in the lending and deal environment.

<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 M&amp;T Bank 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 M&amp;T Bank'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>, M&amp;T Bank's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.96%, 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>

Insights From Analysts:
Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood said that she sees a &#8220;light at the end of the tunnel,&#8221; despite the ongoing<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44807265/cathie-wood-says-shock-therapy-from-trumps-trade-moves-may-end-prolonged-economic-slump"> tariff turmoil</a>. According to Wood, tariffs could be the catalyst to end a three-year "rolling recession."
She said that Trump&#8217;s decision to bring Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent into the process indicates a move to reduce both tariffs and non-tariff trade obstacles. She contends this shift wouldn&#8217;t have occurred without the initial &#8220;shock therapy&#8221; of aggressive trade measures.
The slowdown caused by the tariff introduction will give the administration and the Federal Reserve "more degrees of freedom to stimulate than most investors have been expecting,&#8221; she said.
This will create a "clarion call" for tax cuts, deregulation, and lower interest rates, ultimately paving the way for economic recovery, Wood added.

The analysts at BlackRock extended their tactical horizon back to six to 12 months and resumed their positive view on U.S., while still expecting the &#8220;ongoing risk asset volatility and potentially sharp reversals.&#8221;
Spiking yields in long-term U.S. Treasuries seemed to be a factor in the change in tariff tactics, the weekly note stated.
&#8220;We stay underweight long-term Treasuries, our highest conviction view: tariffs are likely to add to already sticky inflation, and congressional budget plans last week reinforce the outlook for persistent budget deficits. We favor gold instead as a portfolio diversifier.&#8221;
According to BlackRock, the broad-based equity selloff has created opportunities to tap into certain sectors, and &#8220;selectivity is key.&#8221;
&#8220;We still like U.S. technology benefitting from the AI buildout and adoption. We also favor global banks. That includes U.S. banks given the scope for deregulation even with some potential economic pain.&#8221;
