<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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Kinder Morgan 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 Kinder Morgan'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://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Kinder Morgan's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.32%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

How Is The Market Feeling About Kinder Morgan?

WIIM

Shares of energy companies are trading higher after President Trump declared a national energy emergency and vowed to drill more.

Donald Trump wasted no time in his return to the White House, signing a flurry of executive orders, and, most notably, declaring <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43086509/trump-unleashes-executive-orders-on-border-security-oil-drilling-domestic-manufacturing-in-first-acts-as-president">a national energy emergency. </a>
During his inauguration speech on Monday, he reaffirmed his commitment to fossil fuels, pledging to &#8220;drill, baby, drill&#8221; and revoke the electric vehicle mandate. 
&#8220;The inflation crisis was caused by massive overspending and escalating energy prices. And that is why today I will also declare a national energy emergency. We will drill, baby, drill,&#8221; Trump said. 
Trump also announced his intent to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris Climate Accord, calling wind turbines "ugly" and reiterating his policy against renewable energy expansion. His focus is clear: expand drilling, restore the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and flood global markets with U.S. oil and gas.
Oil markets are already reacting, but will this push for American energy dominance send crude prices soaring or lead to an oversupply crisis?
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What Happens To Oil Prices?</h3>
The immediate impact of Trump's pro-drilling stance on oil markets has been strong, with traders already reassessing their outlooks on crude prices. 
The U.S. benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude – as tracked by the United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>) – tumbled by 2.6% during morning trading on Tuesday, heading for a third straight session of losses. 
"Mr. Trump's full-throated yell for U.S. producers to: ‘Drill, baby, drill!' is not new. And it's perfectly logical that prices should fall at the prospect of increased supply. But producers are highly price-sensitive, and there comes a time/price where it's uneconomical to raise production," commented David Morrison, senior market analyst at Trade Nation.
&#8220;Day 1 executive orders in these areas are expected to be followed by further action in the coming days and weeks, with Trump set to test the limits of presidential authority to pursue an agenda that aims to unravel Biden's energy and climate policies,&#8221; wrote Energy Intelligence in a note Tuesday. 
David Goldman, head of trading at Novion said Trump's policy shift "is unlikely to have any significant impact in the short term but may have bearish repercussions in the long term."
Goldman highlighted that a sharp increase in U.S. production, particularly if global demand slows due to the ongoing transition to renewable energy, could weigh on prices. "Increased production without sufficient export infrastructure risks bottlenecks, while protectionist trade measures could stifle international cooperation and reduce market efficiency."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Energy Stocks See A Small Lift</h3>
Oil and gas stocks saw modest gains in premarket trading Tuesday as investors weighed the potential for increased drilling activity. 
The Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>), which tracks major oil companies, was up 0.1% during premarket trading, while the SPDR S&amp;P Oil &amp; Gas Exploration &amp; Production ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOP#NYSE">XOP</a>) saw similar gains.

Scotiabank Reinstates Sector Perform on Kinder Morgan, Announces $26 Price Target

After weeks of significant gains, U.S. natural gas prices at the Henry Hub facility plunged on Friday, dropping over 7% to $3.39 per million British thermal units (MMBtu), <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities">the lowest in a week. </a>
The sharp decline was driven by milder-than-expected cold weather forecasts and a smaller-than-anticipated inventory withdrawal, which weighed on near-term demand expectations and erased recent momentum.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Latest Natural Gas Storage Data Reveals Softer Pull</h3>
The Energy Information Administration reported Friday that natural gas inventories decreased by 116 billion cubic feet (Bcf) in the week ending Dec. 27. 
While this draw was larger than the prior week&#8217;s 93 Bcf decline, it fell short of analyst expectations for a 127 Bcf pull. For comparison, the five-year average for this time of year shows a decrease of 104 Bcf, while the same period last year saw a much smaller draw of 35 Bcf.
Despite the lower-than-expected draw, this marks the seventh consecutive week of inventory declines as colder conditions drive heating demand.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Frosty Weather Conditions Persist, But Extreme Risks Ease</h3>
The National Weather Service continues to warn of a major winter storm impacting large portions of the central Plains, Midwest and eastern U.S. through Monday. Heavy snowfall and icing are expected along key corridors, including Interstate 70 between Kansas and Indiana, and lake-effect snow will persist around the Great Lakes.
Yet, forecasts for the eight- to 15-day period turned milder, according to NatGasWeather, with American and European weather models projecting eight to 12 fewer heating degree days (HDDs) than prior estimates. This could result in less severe cold across the eastern U.S. for mid-January, moderating demand expectations.
Eli Rubin, senior analyst at EBW Analytics Group, told NaturalGasIntel that, although the market remains tight, "a severe market shortage and Henry Hub price dislocation higher to double digits appears less likely."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Natural Gas Sector Reactions</h3>
Despite the sharp drop in natural gas prices – as tracked by the United States Natural Gas Fund LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNG#NYSE">UNG</a>) – stocks of key companies in the sector demonstrated resilience on Friday.
EQT Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQT#NYSE">EQT</a>), the largest natural gas producer in the U.S., saw its shares edge up 0.7%, while Cheniere Energy Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LNG#NYSE">LNG</a>), the leading U.S. exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG), gained 1.8%, eyeing its fifth consecutive session of growth.
Midstream players also performed well, with Kinder Morgan Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMI#NYSE">KMI</a>) rising 1.2% to reach levels last seen in late November, and Williams Companies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMB#NYSE">WMB</a>) climbing 1.6%.

US Natural Gas Prices Drop Sharply As New Weather Forecasts, Lower Weekly Inventory Pull Weigh On Demand

An arctic air blast across the U.S. is driving up heating demand and creating volatile <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities">conditions in energy markets</a>.
What Happened: Natural gas futures bounced back Thursday morning, with February contracts climbing by over 2% to $3.71 per million British units.
According to the National Weather Center (NWC), "Periods of locally heavy coastal rains and higher elevation snow continue for much of the northwestern U.S."

The next two days will see a deluge of rain and snow over the Northwest. The heaviest moisture will target the northern California coast and Oregon today. The NWC highlighted an isolated threat of flash flooding in these areas.
"Accumulating snow is possible over the highest elevations of the Cascades, Sierra and Northern Rockies," the NWC added, noting that snow showers will continue in the Northern and Central Rockies, while rain and snow showers expand across the Northwest on Friday.
The Great Lakes region is bracing for heavy snowfall, with isolated areas expecting accumulations of up to one foot. Snowfall of six to 12 inches is also forecast for parts of the Central Appalachians by Friday.
Why It Matters: Winter weather is driving much of the action, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports continue to fuel demand as Natural Gas Intel reported.
Natural gas-related stocks posted notable gains by mid-morning Thursday, reflecting optimism about rising demand and cold-driven volatility in the market.
U.S. natural gas prices — as tracked by the United States Natural Gas Fund LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNG#NYSE">UNG</a>) — have risen by 15% over the past month.
Pipeline giant ONEOK Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKE#NYSE">OKE</a>) soared 1.57%, trading at $102.28, while Kinder Morgan Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMI#NYSE">KMI</a>), a major natural gas transporter, advanced 2% to $27.94.
Shares of NGL Energy Partners LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NGL#NYSE">NGL</a>) rose 1.2% to $5.05. It was buoyed by expectations of increased activity in the natural gas infrastructure sector.
What&#8217;s Next: Traders are anxiously awaiting Friday&#8217;s U.S. Energy Information Administration storage report.
Withdrawal estimates for the week ended Dec. 27 range from 77 to 159 billion cubic feet, with an average expectation of 127 Bcf.
If realized, the 127 Bcf draw would erase much of the 166 Bcf surplus left after last week's 93 Bcf withdrawal. For comparison, last year's pull for the same period was just 35 Bcf, while the five-year average is 104 Bcf.

Natural Gas Prices Surge As Arctic Blast Freezes US: 3 Stocks On The Move

U.S. natural gas prices jumped Thursday, with the Henry Hub benchmark – as broadly tracked by the U.S. Natural Gas Fund LLP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNG#NYSE">UNG</a>) – climbing 6.5% to $3.59 per million British units, eyeing the highest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities">close since January 2023. </a>
Since the start of the week prices are up 9.5%, cementing the likelihood of witnessing the eighth week of gains in the last nine. 
The recent rally came on the back of robust withdrawals from storage, robust domestic and global demand, and ongoing geopolitical uncertainties in Europe.
Rising natural gas prices spell trouble for inflation and the economy, potentially leading to higher utility bills for U.S. consumers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/12/42598354/wall-street-pins-hopes-on-fridays-crucial-fed-inflation-report-yet-a-miracle-is-needed-to-shift-the-narrative">in the near future. </a>
For investors, rising natural gas prices add to the concerns sparked by a more hawkish-than-expected Federal Reserve meeting this week, in which policymakers raised inflation forecasts for next year and signaled a slower <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/12/42563299/feds-powell-shocks-markets-its-a-new-phase-were-significantly-closer-to-neutral">pace of rate cuts.</a>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">EIA Data Confirms Third Consecutive Triple-Digit Storage Drop</h3>
The U.S. Energy Information Administration reported a 125 billion cubic feet withdrawal from natural gas storage for the week ending Dec. 13, in line with market expectations of a 126 Bcf decline. This marks the third straight week of triple-digit draws and the fifth consecutive week of inventory reductions.
The most significant declines in storage were recorded in colder regions of the Midwest, down by 48 Bcf , and East, down 34 Bcf.
As of Dec. 13, total U.S. natural gas stockpiles stood at 3,622 Bcf—0.6% higher than the same period last year and 3.8% above the five-year average.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Domestic Demand Soars, Breaking Records in 2024</h3>
The EIA's Natural Gas Annual report released Wednesday forecasted record-breaking domestic consumption in 2024, largely driven by a surge in power sector demand. 
The report revealed that AI data centers are an important source of increasing natural gas consumption.
<ul>
<li>Electric Power Sector: Natural gas use averaged 35.4 Bcf/d in 2023, a 6.7% increase (2.2 Bcf/d) from the previous year, making up 40% of total U.S. consumption.</li>
<li>Residential Sector: Consumption hit a five-year low, averaging 12.4 Bcf/d, an 8.9% drop from 2022.</li>
<li>Commercial Sector: Usage decreased by 4.8%, or 0.5 Bcf/d.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Geopolitical Risks Drive LNG Demand</h3>
Global liquefied natural gas markets are also influencing U.S. natural gas prices.
Uncertainty surrounding Europe&#8217;s access to Russian gas via Ukraine has prompted EU countries to seek alternative suppliers, boosting demand for U.S. LNG.
This trend is further fueled by President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s promises to expand LNG export permits. U.S. firms are already favoring lucrative LNG exports over cheaper domestic sales, amplifying the focus on global markets despite abundant local supply.
"If weather remains mild this winter as in the past two winters, we expect a relatively stable global supply-demand balance with prices similar to the previous two winters," the EIA said in a recent report. 
The agency cautioned that colder-than-expected winters in Europe or Asia could tighten supply-demand balances, leading to price spikes.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reaction: Natural Gas Stocks On The Move</h3>
Natural gas stocks outperformed within the broader energy sector on Thursday. 
Major gainers included Kinder Morgan Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMI#NASDAQ">KMI</a>), up 2.8%, The Williams Company Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMB#NYSE">WMB</a>), up 1.6% and EQT Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQT#NYSE">EQT</a>), up 0.9%:

On CNBC's &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mad-money-lightning-round">Mad Money Lightning Round</a>,&#8221; Jim Cramer said Occidental Petroleum (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OXY#NYSE">OXY</a>) is one of his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/OXY/analyst-ratings">&#8220;least favorite oils.&#8221;</a>

Archer Aviation Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACHR#NYSE">ACHR</a>) is the &#8220;ultimate speculative, and as long as you know that, then I'm absolutely fine with it,&#8221; Cramer said.
Cramer recommended to keep owning Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ET#NYSE">ET</a>) and also recommended buying more in case it goes down.
The Mad Money host said he likes Abbott Laboratories (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABT#NYSE">ABT</a>). &#8220;I think that their legal stuff is really largely behind them,&#8221; he added.
When asked about Kinder Morgan, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMI#NYSE">KMI</a>), he said, &#8220;It's a good situation.&#8221;
As for Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMS#NYSE">WMS</a>), the company &#8220;missed the numbers by a mile,&#8221; Cramer said. &#8220;And when I see that, that often means that the next numbers' going to be missed too. So let's be careful there.&#8221;
