WIIM

Norfolk Southern shares are trading lower. Bank of America lowered its price target from $305 to $281.

Norfolk Southern's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSC#NYSE">NSC</a>) short percent of float has fallen 3.06% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.16 million shares sold short, which is 0.95% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.06 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>Norfolk Southern Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734621311_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Norfolk Southern 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 Norfolk Southern'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>, Norfolk Southern's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.31%, 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>

10 Industrials Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

President-elect Donald Trump announced former Congressman Sean Duffy to oversee the Department of Transportation (DOT) on Monday. 
Here's a look at how the latest Trump selection could affect companies in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42053292/trump-picks-sean-duffy-as-next-transportation-secretary-says-he-will-usher-in-the-golden-age-of-travel">the transportation sector. </a>
The Details: Duffy, who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 2011 to 2019, most recently worked as Fox News Media host. He left the position on Monday, according <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/18/us/politics/sean-duffy-trump-transportation-dot.html">to</a> the New York Times.
Duffy is the second Fox News employee to be nominated by Trump for a cabinet position. Last week, Trump picked Fox News host Pete Hegseth as Defense Secretary despite <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41952962/trumps-surprise-defense-secretary-pick-pete-hegseth-jolts-wall-street">lack of government experience</a>.
In 1997, he was a cast member on MTV's "The Real World: Boston.&#8221;
As Transportation Secretary, Duffy would be in charge of major federal agencies, including the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

"He will prioritize Excellence, Competence, Competitiveness and Beauty when rebuilding America's highways, tunnels, bridges and airports. He will ensure our ports and dams serve our Economy without compromising our National Security, and he will make our skies safe again by eliminating DEI for pilots and air traffic controllers," Trump said in his announcement.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Air Travel</h3>
If approved by the Senate, Duffy can be expected to address ongoing aviation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/24/11/42014904/boeing-begins-layoffs-is-the-737-max-recovery-enough-to-lift-ba-stock">safety issues</a>. This could include matters relating to Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) and air traffic control challenges. As part of Trump's focus on efficiency, Duffy could potentially work to enhance safety measures while streamlining regulations. 
Major airline companies like Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), United Airlines Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) and American Airlines Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>) may be affected by potential policy and regulatory changes, as well. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">&#8216;Overall Negative For EV Industry&#8217;</h3>
The DOT also oversees the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) which is expected to focus on regulatory frameworks for electric vehicles and autonomous driving technologies in the near term.  The NHTSA is likely to establish guidelines for emerging technologies like Tesla, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) autonomous driving software. 
Recent reports suggest Trump has plans to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42046316/trump-set-to-hand-musk-golden-path-for-tesla-after-reversing-course-on-autonomous-vehicle-ban">ease restrictions</a> on self-driving vehicles, which could help companies like Tesla expand FSD and bring robotaxis to the market.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk campaigned heavily for Trump and provided millions to his campaign coffers ahead of Election Day.
At the same time, it seems likely that the incoming Trump administration <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41781921/what-does-trumps-victory-mean-for-ev-giant-tesla-and-the-big-3-automakers">will eliminate </a>or reduce many of the EV purchase incentives included in the Biden administration&#8217;s Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). 
Wedbush analysts said that Tesla&#8217;s rivals, U.S.-based EV startups like Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) and Lucid Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>), could face a major set-back if Trump rolls back current EV tax incentives and rebates, as reports suggest. 
"We believe a Trump presidency would be an overall negative for the EV industry as likely the EV rebates/tax incentives get pulled," Wedbush analysts wrote.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Railroads</h3>
If Duffy is confirmed, he will also oversee the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), which is responsible for safety measures across the rail network. He may address safety concerns following incidents like the East Palestine <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38240139/norfolk-southern-to-pay-600m-in-ohio-train-derailment-lawsuit">derailment in 2023</a>.
Duffy will also manage billions in federal grants aimed at improving rail infrastructure and upgrading aging rail systems to enhance efficiency and safety. Railroad companies including CSX Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSX#NASDAQ">CSX</a>), Norfolk Southern Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSC#NYSE">NSC</a>) and Union Pacific Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNP#NYSE">UNP</a>) may benefit from such improvement projects. 
Investors can also monitor the broader transportation sector through ETFs which track its performance including the iShares Trust iShares U.S. Transportation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYT#BATS">IYT</a>) and the First Trust Nasdaq Transportation ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FTXR#NASDAQ">FTXR</a>).

What Trump's DOT Pick Could Mean For EVs, Airlines, Railroad Stocks

Norfolk Southern's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSC#NYSE">NSC</a>) short percent of float has risen 6.59% since its last report.

<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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Norfolk Southern 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 Norfolk Southern'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>, Norfolk Southern's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.64%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Here's How Much $100 Invested In Norfolk Southern 20 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

RBC Capital analyst Walter Spracklin maintains Norfolk Southern (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSC#NYSE">NSC</a>) with a Outperform and raises the price target from $272 to $282.

RBC Capital Maintains Outperform on Norfolk Southern, Raises Price Target to $282

Several analysts revised the price target on Norfolk Southern Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSC#NYSE">NSC</a>) following third quarter results.
On Tuesday, Norfolk Southern reported adjusted earnings of $3.25 per share, beating <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41452912/norfolk-southern-reports-q3-earnings-the-details" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst estimates of $3.11 per share.</a>
The company said it remains on track to achieve its adjusted operating ratio targets for the second half and full year of 2024.
RBC Capital Markets analyst Walter Spracklin raised the price target to $282 from $272 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/nsc/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">while maintaining the Outperform rating.</a>
The analyst writes that the key takeaway from the results is that COO John Orr&#8217;s efforts are driving substantial operational changes, leading to strong performance, especially when compared to a peer that faced challenges during the quarter.
Additionally, management indicated that capital expenditures are expected to decrease in 2025 compared to 2024, which should lead to higher free cash flow growth next year, adds the analyst.
The analyst expects this shift to pave the way for increased shareholder returns and/or debt reduction.
The analyst adds that continued progress across several metrics this quarter reinforces the confidence in management&#8217;s capacity to drive further improvements moving forward. The analyst raised FY24 EPS estimates to $11.91 from $11.80.
BofA Securities analyst Ken Hoexter boosted the price target to $291 from $276 and reaffirmed a Buy rating.
The analyst writes that CFO Jason Zampi projects the fourth quarter operating ratio to worsen to around 65.5%, exceeding typical seasonal patterns.
This decline is due to lower fuel recovery, decreased land sales, hurricane clean-up costs, and ongoing pressure on export coal yields, writes that analyst. NSC is positioned to accelerate earnings through productivity improvements, adds the analyst.
The analyst raised 2024 and 2025 EPS estimates by 1% each, bringing them to $11.87 and $13.85, up from $11.80 and $13.80, respectively. The fourth quarter estimate has been adjusted down to $3.05 from $3.10 due to a higher operational ratio target.
Benchmark analyst Nathan P. Martin boosted the price target to $285 from $270 and reiterated the Buy rating.
The analyst writes that the fourth-quarter EPS estimate stays at $3.13, reflecting a 1% year-over-year revenue increase from a 3% growth in carloads.
Martin projects a 140-basis-point quarter-over-quarter decline in the operating ratio (OR) to 64.8% but a 400-basis-point year-over-year improvement, leading to a second-half average OR of 64.1% at the lower end of NSC&#8217;s 64%-65% guidance range.
Following these updates, the analyst raised the 2024 EPS estimate to $11.94 from $11.80, with flat year-over-year revenues and a 160-basis-point OR improvement.
On the other hand, Stephens analyst Daniel Imbro reiterates an Equal-Weight rating and price target of $263.
The analyst says that the company performed well in the third quarter. Despite the anticipated OR decline in the fourth quarter, the analyst is encouraged by NSC&#8217;s progress toward its long-term goals.
The analyst&#8217;s adjusted EPS estimate for 2024 is now $11.83 (down from $11.93), and for 2025, it is $13.52 (down from $13.71).
Loop Capital analyst Rick Paterson increased the price target to $287 from $285 and reaffirmed a Buy rating. The analyst raised the EPS estimate for 2024 from $11.72 to $12.06 and for 2025 from $13.02 to $13.51.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Tidal ETF Trust Aztlan North America Nearshoring Stock Selection ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NRSH#NYSE">NRSH</a>) and Themes US Infrastructure ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HWAY#NASDAQ">HWAY</a>).
