<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.

Peering Into ConocoPhillips's Recent Short Interest

Tomas Gorny didn't set out to be a billionaire. In fact, in 2001, he only wanted $5,000 a month to keep the lights on and his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/11/41977845/with-interest-rates-soaring-weekly-mortgage-demand-nosedives-11-a-warning-sign-for-the-real-estate-market">mortgage </a>paid. Fresh off losing nearly everything in the dot-com crash, the Polish immigrant had just $6,000 to his name and a simple dream: survival.
Fast-forward two decades, Gorny is the CEO and cofounder of Nextiva, a Scottsdale-based customer experience management firm valued at a staggering $2.7 billion. According to a company spokesperson, his personal net worth now surpasses $1 billion.&nbsp;
But the road to riches wasn't paved with shortcuts; instead, it was a master class in resilience, strategy and planning for the future.&nbsp;

<li>Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart &amp; Target – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">Many are rushing to grab 4,000 of its pre-IPO shares for just $0.26/share!</a></li>
<li>It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $70 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a></li>
</ul>
Gorny's journey began in 1996 when he cofounded Internet Communications, a website-hosting startup. Two years later, the company sold for $6 million in cash and stock. When the buyer, Interliant, went public in 1999, Gorny's shares briefly made him a multimillionaire. But the dot-com crash wiped out all but $6,000 of his fortune.
&#8220;I never looked at it like, ‘I need to make the [millions] back.' It wasn't important to me," Gorny says. Instead, he doubled down on what he knew best: building. In 2001, he launched Ipower, a platform designed to help people and businesses create websites.&nbsp;
The tech industry was in shambles, but the internet itself was booming – global users had grown from just 16 million in 1995 to over 500 million by 2001.
Gorny started small, prioritizing steady profitability over explosive growth. His early customers brought in just enough to keep the company afloat. However, as his products improved, the business eventually attracted hundreds of new users daily.&nbsp;

By 2007, Ipower was thriving and Gorny sold it to Endurance International for a reported $100 million. This strategic move gave both companies a competitive edge as giants like Google and Microsoft began dominating the market.
For Gorny, the sale wasn't about cashing out. "When you focus on building your business, your exit will be significantly better than you ever envisioned," he explains. That philosophy guided his next venture, Nextiva, which he cofounded in 2006.
Today, Nextiva is thriving in a customer experience management market projected to hit $70.2 billion by 2032, with a current CAGR of 17.5%, according to Fortune Business Insights.
Gorny's story echoes advice from fellow billionaire <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41418553/mark-cuban-calls-warren-buffetts-buy-and-hold-strategy-a-crock-which-billionaires-investment-style-a">Mark Cuban</a>: "If you have an exit strategy, it's not an obsession," Cuban wrote in Entrepreneur magazine. Looking back, Gorny says financial success is just validation that they've done something right and different.

Today, it&#8217;s rebounding and testing former support levels, which now act as resistance.

Shares of FedEx Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>) are trading lower Tuesday. The stock is continuing the downtrend that began on Dec. 19 when, after the close, the company announced earnings and said it plans to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42623222/whats-going-on-with-fedex-stock-friday">separate its Freight Unit.</a>
The chart of FedEx shows some classic examples of what traders refer to as &#8220;bad action.&#8221; This is why our team of technical analysts has made it our Stock of the Day.
Action is something that can't be quantified. For example, if a company beats earnings and the stock moves down, it would be considered &#8220;bad action.&#8221; If a company misses earnings and the stock goes up it could be considered &#8220;good action.&#8221;
On Dec. 20, FedEx stock opened about $20 higher than the previous day's close. Traders and investors thought the news and earnings were bullish.
But by the close, the sellers overpowered the buyers. The shares reversed and gave back all of their gains. This was &#8220;weak action&#8221; that showed the bears were in charge.

As you can see on the chart, FedEx broke the support that was at the $275 level. This was another example of &#8220;bad action.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="554" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/24115534/fdx-1024x554.png" alt="" class="wp-image-706297" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/24115534/fdx-1024x554.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/24115534/fdx-300x162.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/24115534/fdx-768x415.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/24115534/fdx.png 1488w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
There tends to be support at prices that have been resistance. This happens because some people who sold at the resistance regretted doing so when the price eventually moved higher. They decide they will buy their shares back at the same price they were sold for if they can.
So, when the stock fell back to $275, they placed buy orders. This concentration of buy orders caused support to form.
But the support was only intact for 3 days. There were more sell orders than buy orders, which made the support break and resulted in another move lower.
The fact that there has been no rebound or bounce back is a third sign of &#8220;bad action.&#8221;
Typically, if a stock makes a large move lower, it is followed by some rebound or bounce, even though it may be small. If this doesn't happen, it shows that buyers are not entering the market, and the sellers are still in charge.
There is a good chance FedEx continues to head lower.

Meta Description: Amazon founder and tech titan Jeff Bezos saved nearly $1 billion in state taxes by relocating from Seattle to his billionaire bunker in Florida.
For most people, deciding where to live comes down to factors like affordability and access to employment. Then again, billionaires like<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/analyst-ratings/24/12/42300654/navigating-50-analyst-ratings-for-amazon-com"> Amazon</a> founder Jeff Bezos aren't most people. Although Bezos has the money to live wherever he wants, many people suspect finances played a role in his decision to relocate to the infamous "billionaire bunker" in 2024. Keep reading to learn why that move may have saved<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42254596/jeff-bezos-acts-like-he-owns-the-elite-neighborhood-he-lives-in-but-residents-say-hes-not-much-of-a-neighbor"> Jeff Bezos</a> almost $1 billion in taxes.
Like many billionaires, Jeff Bezos' life has become the subject of intense public speculation. Almost every move Bezos makes becomes news and his announcement in late 2023 that he would relocate to Florida is no exception. Bezos announced the move on his Instagram page, listing several motivating factors, including being closer to his parents and his fledgling aerospace company, Blue Origin.

</ul>
Bezos moved from Seattle, where he had lived for many years, to Indian Creek Village in early 2024. Indian Creek Village is an exclusive community outside of Miami known as the "billionaire bunker." Business Insider describes this as more than just a swanky gated community. It is its own city, with only 89 residents and a police department whose sole job is keeping nonresidents out.
Indian Creek Village is a private island and the only way in is to cross a bridge patrolled by its Police Department. The same department has a fleet of boats and aggressively patrols the surrounding waters. Even Before Bezos moved in, Indian Creek Village was home to an ultraexclusive crowd that included Tom Brady, Ivanka Trump and Carl Icahn. It's even rumored that the Emir of Qatar has a place there.

This explains why most of the media attention revolved around the sheer size of Bezos' acquisitions. He didn't just buy one place on the island; he bought three. According to an article in the Robb Report, Bezos spent almost $250 million on them. Ownership of the three properties gives Bezos control over 7.5% of Indian Creek Village's 40 residences.
It's not hard to imagine why Indian Creek Village's combination of exclusivity and privacy would appeal to someone like Jeff Bezos. However, astute financial observers began to speculate on another reason for Bezos' abrupt move from Washington to Florida. Forbes magazine has reported that Bezos has sold nearly $13.6 billion in Amazon stock since moving to Indian Creek Village.
Washington&#8217;s capital gains tax law taxes capital gains over $250,000 at 7%. Florida, by contrast, doesn't tax income or capital gains. Forbes estimates Bezos would have owed about $954 million to the state of Washington if he had still been living in Seattle when he sold his Amazon stock. Looking at it that way, spending $250 million on property saved Jeff Bezos $700 million.

How Jeff Bezos Knocked $1 Billion Off His Tax Bill By Moving To His Infamous "Billionaire Bunker"

In the current session, TotalEnergies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTE#NYSE">TTE</a>) is trading at $54.07, after a 0.35% drop. Over the past month, the stock fell by 6.03%, and in the past year, by 20.89%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1735059607_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Evaluating TotalEnergies P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 13.72 in the Oil, Gas &amp; Consumable Fuels industry, TotalEnergies Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 7.65. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1735059607_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.

Achilles Therapeutics Announces $12M AstraZeneca Deal, Plans Job Cuts

Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) shares are hitting new highs on Tuesday. Here&#8217;s a look at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42668157/stanley-druckenmiller-dumps-streets-hottest-ai-stocks-heres-what-the-billionaire-investor-is-betting-on-next">what&#8217;s going on</a>. 
What To Know: Palantir shares are up more than 380% since the start of the year, driven largely by the company&#8217;s positioning in the AI space. 
The rally in Palantir shares accelerated at the beginning of November after the company reported&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41730179/palantir-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-customers-up-39-raises-guidance-results-driven-by-unrele" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">strong quarterly results</a>&nbsp;driven by&nbsp;&#8220;unrelenting&#8221; AI demand.&nbsp;
Revenue jumped 30% year-over-year on continued strength in the U.S. and customer count grew 39% after the company closed 104 deals worth over $1 million during the quarter.
&#8220;The growth of our business is accelerating, and our financial performance is exceeding expectations as we meet an unwavering demand for the most advanced artificial intelligence technologies from our U.S. government and commercial customers,"&nbsp;Alex Karp, co-founder and CEO of Palantir, said in a letter to shareholders last month.

Over the weekend, the Financial Times <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/6cfdfe2b-6872-4963-bde8-dc6c43be5093">reported</a> that Palantir and defense technology company Anduril are communicating with several competitors about the potential of forming a consortium to make a joint bid on U.S. government contracts.
The report indicates that SpaceX and OpenAI are among the companies in talks to join. The group is planning to announce itself publicly as soon as January, people with knowledge of the matter said. 
"We are working together to provide a new generation of defense contractors," one person involved in organizing the group reportedly said. 
The Financial Times further reported that tie-ups between some tech groups expected to be involved with the consortium have already started. Palantir&#8217;s AI platform was integrated with Anduril&#8217;s autonomous software earlier this month and Anduril has linked its counter-drone systems with OpenAI models.
Palantir announced last week that it extended its long-standing partnership with the U.S. Army&nbsp;through 2028. The four-year agreement extension is valued at more than $400 million and has a total available ceiling of approximately $619 million. 
By leveraging Palantir&#8217;s software, the U.S. Army is able to create AI-enabled data solutions to analyze information from multiple data sources, enabling operational efficiencies and optimizing business processes.
PLTR Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/pltr">Palantir shares </a>were trading at all-time highs at last check. The stock was up 1.31% at $81.79 at the time of publication Tuesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
