The Fund invests in financial instruments that ProShare Advisors believes, in combination, should track the performance of the Index. The Index and Fund seek to provide exposure to the companies of the S&P 500 Index (the S&P 500) with the exception of those companies included in the Energy Sector. The S&P 500 is a measure of large-cap U.S. stock market performance. It is a float adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index of 500 U.S. operating companies and real estate investment trusts selected through a process that factors in criteria such as liquidity, price, market capitalization and financial viability. The Index is constructed and maintained by S&P Dow Jones LLC. The Index classifies each company in the S&P 500 as part of a particular sector using the Global Industry Classification Standards (GICS), which are jointly produced by S&P Dow Jones Indices and MSCI, to define companies within a sector. As of June 30, 2023, the following sectors are included within GICS: Communication Services, Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, Energy, Financials, Health Care, Industrials, Information Technology, Materials, Real Estate, and Utilities. A Sector is comprised of multiple industries. For example, the Energy Sector is comprised of companies in, among others, the oil, gas, and consumable fuel industry. The Index consists of companies from each of the Sectors other than the Energy Sector. Each security in the Index is weighted by float-adjusted market capitalization according to the same rules as the S&P 500. The Index is published under the Bloomberg ticker symbol SPXXEGT. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its total assets in component securities of the Index or in instruments with similar economic characteristics.

도널드 트럼프의 미국 대선 승리는 주식 랠리를 촉발시켰다. 핀테크 기업 어프리시에이트(Appreciate)의 최고 비즈니스 책임자인 요게시 칸살(Yogesh Kansal)은 &#34;감세와 규제 완화가 기업 수익 증가로 이어질 것&#34;이라는 트럼프 행정부의 계획에 따라 이러한 상승세는 지속될 것으로 전망했다. 그는 석유와 천연가스처럼 규제가 심한 분야가 트럼프 행정부 하에서 혜택을 받을 것이라고 덧붙였다.

<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.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy LAES Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in SEALSQ&#8217;s case, it is in the Information Technology sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, LAES has a 52-week high of $3.95 and a 52-week low of $0.29.

Dow Declines For Seventh Session; Investors Sentiment Declines, Fear & Greed Index Remains In 'Neutral' Zone

Worthington Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WOR#NYSE">WOR</a>) will release earnings for its second quarter, after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WOR/earnings">closing bell on Tuesday, Dec. 17.</a>
Analysts expect the Columbus, Ohio-based company to report quarterly earnings at 52 cents per share, down from 78 cents per share in the year-ago period. Worthington projects to report quarterly revenue of $273.77 million, compared to $1.09 billion a year earlier, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
On Sept. 24, Worthington posted weaker-than-expected result for its second quarter.
With the recent buzz around Worthington, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company's dividends too. As of now, Worthington offers an annual dividend yield of 1.73%, which is a quarterly dividend amount of 17 cents per share (68 cents a year).
So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly?
To earn $500 per month or $6,000 annually from dividends alone, you would need an investment of approximately $346,254 or around 8,824 shares. For a more modest $100 per month or $1,200 per year, you would need $69,259 or around 1,765 shares.
To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend ($0.68 in this case). So, $6,000 / $0.68 = 8,824 ($500 per month), and $1,200 / $0.68 = 1,765 shares ($100 per month).
Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time.
How that works: The dividend yield is computed by dividing the annual dividend payment by the stock&#8217;s current price.
For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and is currently priced at $50, the dividend yield would be 4% ($2/$50). However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price falls to $40, the dividend yield rises to 5% ($2/$40).
Similarly, changes in the dividend payment can impact the yield. If a company increases its dividend, the yield will also increase, provided the stock price stays the same. Conversely, if the dividend payment decreases, so will the yield.
WOR Price Action: Shares of Worthington gained 0.3% to close at $39.24 on Friday.

How To Earn $500 A Month From Worthington Enterprises Stock Ahead Of Q2 Earnings

Bitcoin&#8216;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) recent surge to an unprecedented $106,000 has led to a notable rise in Bitcoin-based ETFs. This upward movement has positively impacted several ETFs, although Bitcoin has since slightly decreased to $104,008.20.
What Happened: Among the ETFs experiencing gains, Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BITB#NYSE">BITB</a>) rose by 2.35%, while iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>) increased by 2.37%. The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GBTC#NYSE">GBTC</a>) also saw a 1.77% rise. Additionally, the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FBTC#BATS">FBTC</a>) grew by 2.36%, and the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKB#BATS">ARKB</a>) rose by 2.40%. These increases reflect the broader impact of Bitcoin&#8217;s price surge on related financial products.

Why It Matters: The cryptocurrency&#8217;s remarkable ascent to $106,000 comes amid heightened investor optimism, driven by expectations of another interest rate cut. This optimism has not only fueled Bitcoin&#8217;s rally but also led to significant gains for other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, which surpassed $4,000 before a slight pullback. 
The surge in Bitcoin has been significantly bolstered by increased holdings from whale investors, as revealed by on-chain data. Since the bull rally began on October 10, there has been a net increase of 1,582 wallets holding at least 100 BTC, according to blockchain analysis firm Santiment. This represents a nearly 10% increase in such wallets over nine weeks, during which Bitcoin&#8217;s value climbed by 77%.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy SOUN Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for SoundHound AI &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, or Amazon.com, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so. 
In the the case of SoundHound AI, which is trading at $16.91 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 5.91 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, SOUN has a 52-week high of $17.29 and a 52-week low of $1.62.
