Alcoa's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AA#NYSE">AA</a>) short percent of float has risen 10.32% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 9.09 million shares sold short, which is 4.17% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<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.

<h3>Comparing Alcoa'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>, Alcoa's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.83%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Looking Into Burlington Stores's Recent Short Interest

Goldman Sachs analyst Bonnie Herzog reiterated a Buy rating on the shares of Colgate-Palmolive Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CL#NYSE">CL</a>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CL/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast of $106.</a>
CL reported fourth-quarter earnings per share of $0.91, surpassing expectations (compared to the GS/FactSet consensus of $0.88/$0.89).
However, fourth-quarter organic sales growth of 4.3% fell short of predictions, impacted by a 50 basis point drag from lower private label volumes in Pet Nutrition, said the analyst.
Additionally, Hill&#8217;s Pet Nutrition faced challenges in Europe, leading to a miss in segment growth.
North America&#8217;s organic sales declined by 0.7%, while Europe and APAC experienced low-to-mid single-digit growth. Latin America and Africa/Eurasia saw high single-digit increases, opined the analyst.
Weaker organic sales growth, combined with higher-than-expected inflationary pressures, contributed to lower-than-anticipated gross margins and slightly weaker operating margins.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/43316332">What&#8217;s In The Cards For Walmart This Earnings Season?</a>
According to the analyst, lower tax rate of 21.6% provided a $0.04 EPS boost, contributing to CL&#8217;s small EPS beat for the quarter.
Management has provided its initial FY25 guidance, which largely aligns with expectations, although foreign exchange headwinds are expected to impact net sales and possibly EPS for the year, per the analyst.
The analyst asserted that the company&#8217;s organic sales growth forecast of 3%—5% is consistent with its long-term target. This guidance accounts for the planned exit from private label pet nutrition in 2025, which is expected to have a larger impact than in the fourth quarter.
Overall, the analyst expects the stock to see modest declines due to weaker-than-expected organic sales growth.
The analyst considers CL one of the top-tier companies in the HPC coverage, consistently outperforming and raising its FY24 outlook, even amidst challenging market conditions.
After three years of strong growth, the analyst anticipates a more balanced environment in FY25 with slower price growth and improved volume/mix trends.
However, foreign exchange remains a potential risk, likely impacting gross margins and dollar EPS growth. Looking ahead, the analyst expects the company to maintain healthy revenue growth driven by favorable market trends and market share expansion, benefiting from household penetration and premiumization.
Price Action: CL shares are trading lower by 4.33% at $86.95 at the last check Friday.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">STM Stock Prediction For 2025</h2>
