<h3>Arbor Realty Trust P/E Compared to Competitors</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. 
Arbor Realty Trust has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 10.48 of the Mortgage Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued.

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.

IonQ Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IONQ#NYSE">IONQ</a>) shares rebounded Monday after initially trading lower alongside other quantum computing stocks. The stock, which was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/contracts/25/01/42951228/whats-going-on-with-ionq-stock-today-3">down nearly 10% earlier</a> in the session, bounced back following an article detailing Bill Gates' comments on the timeline for useful quantum computing. 
What To Know: The sector potentially came under pressure after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang suggested at CES 2025 last month that practical quantum computing could still be 15 to 30 years away. His remarks triggered a selloff, with some quantum stocks falling more than 40%. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg echoed similar skepticism in a podcast, calling quantum computing &#8220;still quite a ways off from being a truly practical paradigm.&#8221;
Gates spoke on <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bill-gates-theres-a-possibility-quantum-computing-will-become-useful-in-3-to-5-years-152007398.html">Yahoo Finance's Opening Bid podcast</a>, he said there&#8217;s a possibility that quantum breakthroughs could happen within three to five years, allowing systems to reach enough logical qubits to solve difficult problems. He acknowledged that the field is uncertain but pointed out that Microsoft, where he remains involved, is actively working on quantum computing and expects to release what it calls "the world's most powerful quantum machine" later this year.
IonQ also announced a $21.1 million research contract with the U.S. Air Force Research Lab to develop quantum network infrastructure, furthering its previous $54.5 million agreement with the military. The stock initially dropped despite the news but reversed course after Gates' comments gained attention. Gates, through his Breakthrough Energy venture, has previously invested in IonQ.
While the broader quantum sector remains volatile, IonQ is holding up better than its peers. D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) and Rigetti Computing (RGTI), two other heavily traded quantum names, are still down sharply this year. Rigetti, despite a massive run-up in 2024, remains under pressure after its CEO warned that significant commercial sales are still years away.
IONQ Price Action: IonQ shares were up 4.65% at $41.32 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Merck &amp; Co Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRK#NYSE">MRK</a>) and Pfizer Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) are duking it out for investor attention with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">fourth-quarter earnings</a> being reported on Tuesday.
Both pharmaceutical heavyweights have very different technical setups, leaving investors to wonder which stock will have the upper hand.
Let's break down the charts and what the technical signals are saying about each company as they prepare to report.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Merck Stock's Mixed Signals: Bullish Short-Term, But Long-Term Resistance Looms</h1>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent020325&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="626" height="490" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/03115322/Screenshot-2025-02-03-at-10.22.11-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-763045" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/03115322/Screenshot-2025-02-03-at-10.22.11-PM.png 626w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/03115322/Screenshot-2025-02-03-at-10.22.11-PM-300x235.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 626px) 100vw, 626px" /></a></figure>
<a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent020325&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chart created using Benzinga Pro</a>
Merck stock has shown some solid short-term strength, with its stock price of $98.90 comfortably sitting above its eight-day and 20-day simple moving averages (SMAs) of $97.81 and $98.64, respectively. These short-term buying signals, along with a neutral Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 50.39, suggest a continuation of the current trend, barring any earnings surprises.
However, the story changes when looking at Merck stock&#8217;s long-term trend. Its 50-day SMA of $99.64 and 200-day SMA of $114.28 are higher than its stock price, indicating that the stock may face resistance moving forward. Merck&#8217;s Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) of a negative 0.47 suggests bearish momentum in the near term, adding an element of risk.
On the flip side, analysts are bullish on Merck with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MRK/analyst-ratings">consensus target of $124</a>, representing an implied upside of 20.25%. That positive outlook could be enough to offset the short-term technical pressure, making Merck stock a bit of a mixed bag heading into earnings.

In stark contrast, Pfizer stock is looking much weaker technically. The stock has been firmly entrenched in a bearish trend, with its share price sitting below its five-, 20- and 50-day exponential moving averages (EMAs), signaling ongoing selling pressure. Pfizer stock at $26.30 has eight-day SMA at $26.51 and the 20-day SMA at $26.56, both signals pointing to potential further downside.
Pfizer stock's 50-day SMA of $26.15 provides some minor support, but overall, the chart points to more trouble ahead. The MACD indicator of 0.04 shows only a glimmer of bullish potential, while the RSI of 47.61 reinforces the neutral sentiment surrounding the stock. While there's a chance for some short-term recovery, Pfizer's overall trajectory looks weaker than Merck's.
Despite the challenges, Pfizer's analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PFE/analyst-ratings">consensus price target</a> is $36.74, offering an implied upside of 13.80%. However, with the Pfizer stock trading significantly below its 200-day SMA of $27.87, it's clear Pfizer has a tough road ahead.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Merck Vs. Pfizer: Who Will Win The Earnings Showdown?</h1>
When it comes to earnings, Merck's solid analyst outlook and bullish short-term signals seem to give it the edge over Pfizer, which is struggling with technical bearishness. 
While both stocks face risks, Merck's upside potential, supported by a 20% price target boost from analysts, makes it the more promising candidate for investors looking for stability and growth. 
Pfizer, on the other hand, remains a riskier play, though it does offer some upside potential if it can overcome its technical hurdles.

As of Feb. 3, 2025, two stocks in the energy sector could be flashing a real warning to investors who value momentum as a key criteria in their trading decisions.

Hartford Finl Servs Gr's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HIG#NYSE">HIG</a>) short percent of float has risen 3.38% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 3.82 million shares sold short, which is 1.53% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.49 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/">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.
