<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42307586/bitcoin-dumped-and-recovered-in-south-korea-amid-political-turmoil-an-arbitrage-opportunity-that-wasnt">Political uncertainty surrounding</a> South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has spurred heated activity on prediction market Polymarket on Wednesday.
What Happened: <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/south-korean-president-impeached-in-2024?tid=1733326929469">Data</a> from the prediction market shows a 37% probability of Yoon being impeached before the end of 2024.
Another Polymarket question <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/yoon-out-as-president-of-south-korea-in-2024?tid=1733326929195">gives</a> a 29% chance of Yoon being removed from office, underscoring heightened political instability in the country.
This uncertainty has already rippled through <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42306717/south-korean-markets-plunge-amid-political-turmoil-as-president-yoons-martial-law-u-turn-sparks-uncertainty-samsung-sk-hynix-and-hyundai-stocks-tumble">South Korea's financial markets</a>.
Key technology and industrial stocks have taken a hit, with Samsung Electronics (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) down 1.12%, NVIDIA (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) supplier SK Hynix (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HXSCF#OTC">HXSCF</a>) slipping 0.061%, and Hyundai Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) falling 0.70%. 
The turmoil has also affected U.S.-listed South Korean equities, with Posco Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PKX#NYSE">PKX</a>) dropping 4.36% in regular trading before seeing a slight recovery after hours. 
South Korean ETFs in the U.S., including the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWY#NYSE">EWY</a>) and Franklin FTSE South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLKR#NYSE">FLKR</a>), also saw mixed performances, signaling broader market apprehension.
The situation has also impacted the South Korean won, which weakened by 0.21% against the U.S. dollar, trading at 1,416.65. 
Analysts noted that South Korea&#8217;s crucial role in global supply chains, particularly in semiconductors and automotive production, amplifies the stakes of this political drama.

Why It Matters: The cryptocurrency market, too, felt the shockwaves.
Major coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum plunged on Upbit, South Korea&#8217;s largest crypto exchange, trading at a steep discount compared to international markets. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) dropped as low as $71,800 on Upbit compared to $95,500 on Coinbase, while Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) fell to $2,700 on Upbit before recovering. 
The Korea Premium Index, which tracks price differences between South Korean and global exchanges, dipped to -14.67 during the chaos, signaling significant retail selling pressure.
However, the situation stabilized after President Yoon reversed his martial law decision following parliamentary pushback, with Bitcoin and Ethereum rebounding to align more closely with global prices. 
Analysts noted this episode's divergence from the traditional "Kimchi Premium," where South Korean crypto prices often trade at a significant premium.
Historical patterns add further context to the political stakes. 
South Korea has a tumultuous history of leadership changes, with several former presidents either overthrown, impeached, or imprisoned. 
Yoon's presidency, marked by controversy and challenges, now faces increasing scrutiny and the potential for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42307586/bitcoin-dumped-and-recovered-in-south-korea-amid-political-turmoil-an-arbitrage-opportunity-that-wasnt">a similar fate</a>.

South Korea's President To Be Impeached In 2024? Polymarket Traders Are Unsure

South Korean markets traded sharply lower on Wednesday following a dramatic political upheaval that saw President Yoon Suk Yeol briefly impose and then quickly withdraw martial law <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42301885/south-korea-etfs-won-pare-losses-as-yoon-makes-u-turn-on-martial-law-declaration">after facing parliamentary opposition</a>.
What Happened: The benchmark Kospi index fell 1.15% to 2,471.27, while the tech-heavy Kosdaq 100 dropped 2.64% as of 9:49 am local time, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. 
The political uncertainty particularly affected major technology and industrial stocks, with Samsung Electronics Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) declining 1.12%.
NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) supplier SK Hynix (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HXSCF#OTC">HXSCF</a>) saw its shares drop 0.061%. Other industrial heavyweights also suffered, with Hyundai Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) falling 0.70% and U.S.-listed Posco Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PKX#NYSE">PKX</a>) declining 4.36% to $47.77 on Tuesday&#8217;s regular session. Still, the stock recovered marginally in after-hours trading.
U.S.-based funds tracking South Korean equities showed signs of recovery in after-hours trading, with the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWY#NYSE">EWY</a>) rebounding 0.25% after earlier losses exceeding 6%. The Franklin FTSE South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLKR#NYSE">FLKR</a>) gained 0.53% after hours.
The political turbulence also impacted currency markets, with the South Korean won weakening 0.21% against the U.S. dollar to 1,416.65. 
The market reaction highlights South Korea&#8217;s crucial role in global supply chains, particularly in semiconductor manufacturing and automotive production, where many companies serve as essential suppliers to major U.S. firms.

The most oversold stocks in the materials sector presents an opportunity to buy into undervalued companies.
The RSI is a momentum indicator, which compares a stock&#8217;s strength on days when prices go up to its strength on days when prices go down. When compared to a stock&#8217;s price action, it can give traders a better sense of how a stock may perform in the short term. An asset is typically considered oversold when the R<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/rsi">SI is below 30</a>, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Here's the latest list of major oversold players in this sector, having an RSI near or below 30.

Top 4 Materials Stocks Which Could Rescue Your Portfolio This Month

The market for coal used to make steel is in the summer doldrums, but supply outages in Australia and the United States are providing underlying tightness that could cause prices to spike in the late summer and fall once Asian <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/steel">steelmakers start restocking.</a>
Mine fires in Australia and West Virginia and a lock and dam closure in Alabama are causing latent tightness that won't become visible until India and China come back to the market between August and October. Once they do, prices are likely to move higher but remain capped below record highs by a sluggish global economy.&nbsp;
"The supply side looks very supportive of met coal prices,"&nbsp;John Berman, chief investment officer with natural resources&nbsp;investment management&nbsp;company&nbsp;Berman Capital Group, told Benzinga. "It's the demand side that is potentially the brakes on any price rally."

Australia's Grosvenor Outage
Among the top concerns of the market right now is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/07/39623378/anglo-americans-coal-asset-sale-faces-hurdle-after-fire-at-major-mine">the outage</a> at Anglo American's (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NGLOY#OTC">NGLOY</a>) Grosvenor Mine, which supplies more than 1% of global seaborne steelmaking coal.
An explosion and fire forced the company to suspend production at the mine late last month, knocking out up to 3 million tons of Anglo&#8217;s total expected 15-17 million metric tons of steelmaking coal output for 2024. On Thursday, the miner revised that guidance to 14-15.5 million metric tons.
The day after the explosion, Anglo said the outage could last several months because of likely damage underground.
Last week, Australian mining union officials said they were worried that Grosvenor might close permanently, although they acknowledged that Anglo was trying to recover the mine.
Metallurgical coal prices initially jumped on the Grosvenor news, but then retreated as Anglo reportedly assured customers of third quarter deliveries. However, the company reportedly said it wouldn't be able to meet delivery obligations in the fourth quarter.
"While the incident will continue to provide support and tighten supply, it appears that part of the initial price rally was speculative,"&nbsp;RBC Capital Markets&nbsp;said in a note.
US River Transportation Outage
In the United States, the Army Corp of Engineers closed the Holt Lock and Dam on the Black Warrior River in Alabama on June 22 as a safety precaution because of cracks and leaks. The river is a key artery for barge transportation of coal.
The infrastructure will be closed for three to five months while a new steel-enforced bulkhead can be manufactured, Army engineers said.
The closure means Peabody Energy Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTU#NYSE">BTU</a>) and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/02/37295857/warrior-met-coals-ballooning-development-costs-prompt-analysts-to-rethink-projectio">Warrior Met Coal Inc. </a>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HCC#NYSE">HCC</a>) will have to find alternate transportation, Matthew Warder, an analyst with The Coal Trader newsletter, told Benzinga. The companies didn't respond when asked for comment.
US Longview Mine Outage
On June 30, the Longview Mine in West Virginia caught fire, according to media reports. The federal Mine Safety and Health Administration is investigating the incident. 
As of Friday, the mine remained out of commission, sources familiar with the matter told Benzinga. One of the sources said the mine could reopen this week while another said workers had reentered the mine last week.
Industry chatter suggests the mine won't be back to full production for months, although one of the sources said it is the operator's goal to restart mine production as soon as possible.
The mine operator,&nbsp;Allegheny Metallurgical, didn't respond to requests for comment. Privately held Allegheny is a partnership between privately held U.S.-based companies&nbsp;American Metals &amp; Coal International Inc.&nbsp;and&nbsp;JAZ Ventures, South Korea's&nbsp;Posco Holdings&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PKX#NYSE">PKX</a>) and Japan's&nbsp;Itochu Corp.&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITOCY#OTC">ITOCY</a>) .
Based on a similar incident at Peabody's Shoal Creek Mine last year, Warder said the Longview outage could keep 0.5-1.5 million short tons of high volatile metallurgical coal off the market in 2024 and up to 3.5 million short tons off next year if the mine remains offline.
Higher Prices to Benefit Miners
The three incidents have tightened metallurgical coal supply, but at the moment there isn't a strong upward price reaction because steelmakers in India, China, Europe and Brazil aren't yet looking to make purchases on the spot market to replenish their stocks. Meanwhile, U.S. coking coal buyers are just getting their annual procurement process started this month.
"This is a very sleepy time in the market," Warder said.
Late last month, Australian premium coking coal futures, an industry benchmark, could be seen at $233 per metric ton, a far cry from their record high above $360 set in October.
When heavyweight steel producers India and China come back to the market between August and October, the demand may push prices higher than they would otherwise go if not for the production outages in Australia and the United States.
Warder thinks $300 steelmaking coal prices are in play sometime in the fall, although the market won't get back to the highs from the previous year because of a weaker Chinese economy.
"I think we could see $300 in the short term once the restocking season gets underway, although I don't know how sustainable that price will be with current demand," Berman said, adding that "$360, I think, is very unlikely without robust Chinese demand this year."
Firmer prices stand to benefit coking coal producers, Warder said.
That includes BHP and Alpha Metallurgical Resources Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMR#NYSE">AMR</a>), he added. 
Even with Grosvenor out, Anglo American still stands to benefit from its other metallurgical coal production, he said. And Warrior can use other transportation to get its coal to market, meaning the dam and lock outage isn't a showstopper for the company, he said. Peabody will also be able to get its Alabama coal to market, while it also produces Australian coal to sell, he said.
Berman agrees that Warrior and Alpha will be among the biggest beneficiaries as prices move higher. He also adds Australian miner&nbsp;Whitehaven Coal Ltd.&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHITF#OTC">WHITF</a>) to the list.
"Warrior will likely produce a little more free cash flow through the end of this year than I was expecting," Berman says.

Coal Prices Set To Rise When Restocking Begins After US, Australia Mine Outages

ZEUS

Shares of industrial metal stocks are trading higher following softer-than-expected June CPI figures.

The recent North American Battery Series, hosted by J.P. Morgan, provided crucial insights into the battery industry&#8217;s future. The event featured experts and corporations from various segments of the battery value chain. Key themes emerged, shedding light on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/electric-vehicles">the industry's trajectory</a>, innovation focus, and supply chain strategies.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">EV Sales Projected To Grow 20%-23% YoY In 2024</h2>
J.P. Morgan&#8217;s Global EV Battery team, led by Parsley Ong, shared an optimistic outlook for global EV sales, projecting a 20%-23% year-over-year growth in 2024.
China will lead this growth, while the U.S. and European markets will align with more muted expectations.
In this light, stocks of China-based EV makers such as Xiaomi Corp (OTCPK:XIACF) (OTCPK:XIACY), Li Auto Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LI#NASDAQ">LI</a>), Nio Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>), VinFast Auto Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VFS#NASDAQ">VFS</a>), XPeng Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPEV#NYSE">XPEV</a>), Lucid Group Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) and ZEEKR Intelligent Technology Holding Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZK#NYSE">ZK</a>) should be on investors&#8217; radar.
Adequate battery material capacity will support up to a 25%-30% growth rate, with potential temporary price increases if demand exceeds this range. Battery volume recovery will be gradual and weighted towards the second half of the year, with prices bottoming in the second quarter.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Battery Innovation Now Focused On Fast Charging &amp; Cost Reductions</h2>
Despite softer growth in EV demand outside China, the full battery value chain heavily invests in scaling and innovating.
Dr. Shashank Sripad from And Battery Aero emphasized the shift in battery innovation objectives from improving range to fast charging and cost reductions. The focus is on enhancing the battery&#8217;s performance, with significant interest in superfast charging and brand reputation.
Novel technologies, while promising, will likely remain limited to electric aviation and high-end EV markets for the next few years due to high costs and specific energy requirements.
Silicon and lithium-metal are the most mature advanced anode options, with the potential to significantly boost specific energy and fast charging capabilities.
Long-term, the industry will shift towards cathode innovation, which has remained relatively unchanged for several years. Popular companies in the cathode materials space include BASF SE (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BASFY#OTCQX">BASFY</a>), 3M Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMM#NYSE">MMM</a>), POSCO Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PKX#NYSE">PKX</a>), and Kureha Corp (OTCPK:KURCF).
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Competitive Landscape and Cost Dynamics</h2>
The competitive battery supply chain highlights the need for cost improvements and innovation. With some plants operating at only 30% capacity, the focus is on cost competitiveness and advancements in fast charging, higher nickel-content NMC batteries, and higher silicon-content anodes.
Battery costs will fall below $100/kWh, making EVs cost-competitive with internal combustion engine vehicles globally.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Impact of Localization Trends</h2>
Recent U.S. tariffs on Chinese exports highlight the geopolitical importance of domestic battery material and cell supply chains. The U.S. prioritizes supply chain localization, particularly for lithium.
Tariffs on EVs, lithium-ion batteries, and natural graphite will increase significantly in 2024. While this could create inflationary pressures for U.S. EVs, it also presents an opportunity for U.S. battery material producers. U.S. EV makers include Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Rivian Automotive Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) should see a rise in material cost, to the extent they buck the localization trend.
The Biden Administration's move to increase tariffs underscores the need to build a domestic supply chain for EVs, potentially benefiting U.S. battery startups.
JPMorgan&#8217;s recent note highlighted the battery industry&#8217;s commitment to innovation and cost reduction amid evolving market dynamics. Focusing on fast charging, supply chain localization, and advanced anode technologies, the battery sector will experience significant growth and transformation.
Investors should monitor these trends closely, as they will shape the future of the EV and battery markets.

EV Market Set For 20-23% Growth, Led By China-Based Companies Like Nio, XPeng, Li Auto: JPMorgan

Shares of metals and materials stocks are trading lower amid a drop in the price of multiple different metals.

POSCO shares are trading higher. Steel stocks have gained recently amid US President Biden calling for increased China steel tariffs.

The energy transition that requires vast amounts of minerals like copper and lithium to move the economy from dependence on fossil fuels to renewable sources of electricity has created a shift in the tension between environmentalists <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mining">and the mining industry.</a>
Conservation groups find themselves opposing mining projects that aim to extract metals like copper and lithium needed to make electric vehicles, wind farms and solar panels. They worry that, even though the end goal will help decrease carbon emissions, a rush to develop the mines may skirt environmental protections put in place over the years.
One of the latest battlegrounds is the Mining Regulatory Clarity Act. Introduced by Democrat and Republican legislators from mining-heavy states Nevada, Idaho and Alaska, the measure aims to explicitly allow mining companies with claims on federal land to dump rock waste on public land next door, even if those adjacent claims aren't proven to contain valuable minerals.
This has been the practice under the General Mining Act of 1872, which governs hard rock mining of minerals including gold and copper under land owned by the United States and leased by miners.&nbsp;
Over the century and a half of the law's existence, mining has evolved from pickaxes to large industrial operations that remove much more ore and waste rock than the hand-held shovels of yore. Mining companies often deposit that waste on adjacent unprofitable claims rather than on top of land that contains valuable minerals.
Conservation groups have been contesting that. In 2019 a district judge sided with environmentalists and tribes fighting the Rosemont open-pit copper mine in Arizona owned by Canadian miner Hudbay Minerals Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HBM#NYSE">HBM</a>). In 2022 a federal appeals court upheld the decision that the company's only valid claims were on land it could prove contained valuable minerals, thus preventing the mine from putting waste on other claims in the area.

Ramifications of the Rosemont decision have been rippling through the mining industry. Based on the precedent, a judge blocked a Nevada molybdenum mine owned by Colorado-based miner New Moly LLC and South Korean steelmaker Posco Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PKX#NYSE">PKX</a>). Another judge said the Bureau of Land Management erred in its decision to approve the Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LAC#NYSE">LAC</a>) Thacker Pass project in Nevada but stopped short of vacating the decision.
"If judges use the original outline of the law, there are a lot of mines in the U.S. that could be challenged in this way," Simon Jowitt, mining industry consultant and associate professor of economic geology at the University of Nevada Reno, told Benzinga.
The most vulnerable mining projects are those on public lands that use mining claims for ancillary activities, Collen Clark, a founding partner of law firm Schmidt &amp; Clark LLP, told Benzinga.&nbsp;
The mining industry supports the changes under the clarity act, saying that it will prevent the United States falling behind in its attempt to develop domestic sources of minerals key to the energy transition and national security. Otherwise, the nation will be reliant on foreign suppliers that may not have the strongest environmental or labor laws, they say. Industry officials add that mines are already strictly regulated by environmental protection laws that needn't be duplicated in federal mining reform.&nbsp;
Opponents say the clarity act is a giveaway to the mining industry at the expense of the public and will undermine conservation efforts and damage ancestral land of native tribes.&nbsp;&nbsp;
"It's long past time to update the antiquated 1872 hard rock mining law, but the Mining Regulatory Clarity Act is not the solution," Earthjustice&nbsp;Senior Legislative Representative Blaine Miller-McFeeley said in a statement. "Instead of updating existing law to protect communities, safeguard water resources and protect Indigenous sacred sites, it gives mining companies unprecedented power to hold our public lands hostage for extractive purposes — even without a valid mineral claim."
In the markup session this month, the House Natural Resources Committee added language saying that nothing in the clarity bill gives mining companies the right to operate where they're already prevented, such as in national parks. The changes also say the bill doesn't limit the government's ability to regulate mining, including under the Endangered Species Act.
Whether the bill passes or not remains to be seen, but it has bipartisan support in the House and Senate, as well as support from the national and Nevada mining associations and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
The bill's chances of passing depend largely on whether it can be attached to a larger legislative package that has a higher priority in Congress, Clark said.
"It's a very simple clarification aimed at avoiding unnecessary litigation," Laura Granier, partner with law firm Holland &amp; Hart LLP, told Benzinga. "This should be not a party line issue."

Energy Transition Metals At Stake: Potential US Mining Law Update Pits Industry Against Environmentalists

Shares of metals companies are trading lower amid an increase in the US dollar following January inflation data. Concerns over rate cut uncertainty could also impact demand outlook.

POSCO Holdings's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PKX#NYSE">PKX</a>) short percent of float has fallen 4.17% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 707 thousand shares sold short, which is 0.23% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 4.52 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>POSCO Holdings Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1704818715_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for POSCO Holdings 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 POSCO Holdings'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>, POSCO Holdings's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.72%, 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>

Looking Into POSCO Holdings's Recent Short Interest

In the current session, the stock is trading at $90.97, after a 1.11% increase. Over the past month, POSCO Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PKX#NYSE">PKX</a>) stock increased by 3.93%, and in the past year, by 55.14%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1704393013_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>How Does POSCO Holdings P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large.

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.
