In the current session, Viper Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VNOM#NASDAQ">VNOM</a>) is trading at $36.50, after a 7.90% decrease. Over the past month, the stock fell by 11.96%, and in the past year, by 9.65%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<h3>How Does Viper Energy 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. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Viper Energy has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 26.8 of the Oil, Gas &amp; Consumable Fuels industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744318818_1.png" alt="Guage" />

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.

<h2>The Basics of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Within the domain of banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their work involves attending company conference calls and meetings, researching company financial statements, and communicating with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
In addition to their assessments, some analysts extend their insights by offering predictions for key metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates. This supplementary information provides further guidance for traders. It is crucial to recognize that, despite their specialization, analysts are human and can only provide forecasts based on their beliefs.

<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.

A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure.

According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Viper Energy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.57%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Volatility returned to Wall Street at the beginning of the year, with multiple factors denting investors&#39; sentiment. Rising inflation, resulting in a halt in rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and growing fears of a trade war following President Donald Trump&#39;s announcement of hefty tariffs on several countries have been rattling stocks.
The volatility could escalate in the coming days, as uncertainty over the economy&#39;s health continues to grow. Given this situation, investors looking for a steady income and ways to protect their capital may want to hold or buy dividend-paying stocks. Three such stocks are Vermilion Energy Inc. VET, Chord Energy Corporation CHRD and Viper Energy, Inc. VNOM.
<h2>Volatility Returns to Wall Street</h2>
An unexpected rise in inflation over the past three months has raised concerns of a slowing economy, with major indexes retreating from their earlier highs seen in 2024. The Federal Reserve issued an alert in late 2024 that there will be fewer rate cuts this year as inflation has shown signs of escalating.
The Fed left interest rates unchanged in January and has hinted at adopting a cautious approach till inflation shows signs of cooling. Market participants now believe that the Federal Reserve wouldn&#39;t go for a rate cut before the second half of the year. Moreover, it is unlikely that the Fed will go for more than one rate cut this year.
To make matters worse, Trump&#39;s proposed tariffs have raised fears of a trade war. Trump has announced 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports before temporarily pausing them for the second time earlier this week. Both nations have also announced retaliatory tariffs if Trump&#39;s tariffs go into effect.
Besides, Trump has already imposed 10% tariffs on Chinese goods, with Beijing having already retaliated. The ongoing tensions could keep markets volatile for a longer period.
<h2>3 Stocks That Recently Announced Dividend Hikes</h2>
