반도체 섹터가 변화의 바람을 맞이하고 있고, JP모건의 할란 서(Harlan Sur)는 이를 명확히 전달하고 있다. &#34;결과는 예상에 부합하겠지만, 관세/무역 관련 역학이 약한 2분기/하반기 25와 부정적인 이익 수정 사이클을 이끌 것&#34;이라고 말했다. 이는 월스트리트에서의 &#39;준비하라&#39;는 의미로, 상황이 험난해질 것이라는 예고이다.

On CNBC's &#8220;Mad Money Lightning Round,&#8221; Jim Cramer said Cerence Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRNC#NASDAQ">CRNC</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRNC">is a &#8220;winner.&#8221;</a>
Supporting his view, Cerence, on May 7, posted better-than-expected quarterly earnings.
Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACB#NASDAQ">ACB</a>) is a &#8220;nice speculative&#8221; stock, Cramer said. &#8220;I'm not fighting it. You can own it.&#8221;
Aurora Cannabis, on March 20, announced it discovered a novel source of genetic resistance against powdery mildew, a pathogen, in cannabis sativa.
Although Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>) is &#8220;very cheap,&#8221; it doesn't have a catalyst, Cramer said. He recommends owning NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) rather than Skyworks.
As per the recent news, Skyworks Solutions, on May 29, named Robert Schriesheim as interim CFO.
When asked about Sezzle Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEZL#NASDAQ">SEZL</a>), he said, &#8220;We think Sezzle's had its day. I don't think we can recommend Sezzle any higher here.&#8221;
On the earnings front, Sezzle reported better-than-expected first-quarter financial results on May 8 and raised its FY25 guidance.
Cramer recommended holding Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBW#NYSE">BBW</a>) and not buying it because it &#8220;just had that spike.&#8221; However, he said he would buy the stock in case it comes down.
Build-A-Bear posted better-than-expected results for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 on May 29. Revenue rose 11.9% year over year to $128.4 million, surpassing analysts' expectations of $118.9 million.
Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RSG#NYSE">RSG</a>) is such a &#8220;good&#8221; company, Cramer said. &#8220;That is a great stock."
Lending support to his choice, JP Morgan analyst Tami Zakaria raised the price target on the stock from $229 to $275 on May 23.
When asked about HighPeak Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPK#NASDAQ">HPK</a>), Cramer said, &#8220;Oil at $62 a barrel does not make me interested. If you think oil's going to go up you do have a winner, though. HighPeak is levered to the price of oil more than almost all of them.&#8221;
On the earnings front, HighPeak Energy, on May 12, posted upbeat results for the first quarter.

Skyworks Solutions Appoints Robert Schriesheim As Interim CFO

Skyworks Solutions's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NYSE">SWKS</a>) short percent of float has fallen 7.26% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 18.04 million shares sold short, which is 15.46% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 5.75 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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Skyworks Solutions 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 Skyworks Solutions'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>, Skyworks Solutions's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.88%, which means the company has more 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>

<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.

<h3>Comparing Skyworks Solutions'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>, Skyworks Solutions's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.11%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
