<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.

According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Samsara's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.99%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Shares of companies within the broader tech sector are trading higher amid a rebound. Also, the sector may be moving higher in sympathy with Dell Technologies and Palantir Technologies' inclusion in the S&P 500 index.

JP Morgan analyst Alexei Gogolev maintains Samsara (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IOT#NYSE">IOT</a>) with a Neutral and raises the price target from $37 to $40.

Investors showed little enthusiasm for the August jobs report, as the slower-than-expected hiring numbers deepened worries about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40748557/job-creation-falls-short-of-expectations-in-august-unemployment-rate-ticks-lower-">a softening labor market.</a>
The U.S. economy added 142,000 nonfarm jobs in August, up from July's 89,000 but falling short of the projected 160,000. The unemployment rate edged down by 0.1% to 4.3%, in line with expectations, while wages saw stronger-than-anticipated growth, rising 0.4% month-over-month.
On Friday, markets shifted sharply into risk-off mode, with all major indices dropping over 1% by midday trading in New York. 
The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) spiked over 17% to 23 points. The Nasdaq 100 led the decline, losing over 5% for the week, eyeing its worst performance since September 2022.
Semiconductors dragged down the tech-heavy index. The iShares Semiconductor ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NYSE">SOXX</a>) dropped nearly 5%, while Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) fell more than 4%. The chipmaker giant extended the weekly loss to 14%, on track for its steepest decline since October 2022.
Investors dumped equities and moved into cash as the U.S. dollar strengthened despite weaker-than-expected nonfarm payroll data.
In the bond market, short-term Treasury yields tumbled, bringing the yield curve back to a normal shape after two years of inversion. The two-year Treasury yield fell below the 10-year, signaling a shift in economic outlook.
Commodities took heavy losses across the board. Gold dropped 0.9%, silver plunged 3.1% and crude oil (WTI) slid 3%, reaching $66 per barrel, the lowest since May 2023.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) also dropped, losing over 3%, as investors steered clear of crypto assets amid a broad-based decline in risk appetite.
