Sanmina Corp

Sanmina's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SANM#NYSE">SANM</a>) short percent of float has fallen 8.15% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 1.21 million shares sold short, which is 3.38% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 4.45 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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Sanmina 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 Sanmina'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>, Sanmina's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.84%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Shares of companies within the broader tech sector are trading lower amid AI competition concerns from China's DeepSeek AI model.

U.S. stock futures dropped sharply on Monday after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43223228/satya-nadella-said-we-should-take-development-out-of-china-very-very-seriously-now-deepseeks-r1-has-emerged-as-chatgpt-killer-outperforming-openai-with-50x-cheaper-prices-heres-more">rise in the popularity of DeepSeek</a>, a Chinese artificial intelligence model that demonstrates high performance at a significantly lower cost. This development sent shockwaves through the market, challenging the belief that massive GPU investments are necessary for powerful AI, particularly threatening big tech companies.
All major index futures were down, with the Nasdaq 100 falling more than 4.3%. This drop comes after the indices had posted gains for two consecutive weeks.
Apart from this, five of the total ‘Magnificent Seven' will report their earnings this week.
The 10-year Treasury yield stood at 4.50%, while the two-year yield was at 4.17%. According to the CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>, there is a 99.5% chance that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates unchanged later this week.

Insights From Analysts
Assessing the DeepSeek impact, the global macroeconomic expert and market strategist, Anish Nanda said that the speed, cost, and focus of China's progress on chips is causing a rotation out of growth into value stocks.
However, he added that it remains to be seen if DeepSeek will prove to be a viable, cheaper alternative in the long term and if they can consistently innovate and take a leadership position in the sector that can be sustained. "Also little is known about the lab and its founder, Liang WenFeng," he told <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga</a>.
"Nevertheless, it still poses a risk if U.S. tech giants' pricing power is finally being threatened and if their massive AI spending needs a rethink. Only time will tell who will emerge the winner in the long run. A tough battle seems to be on the cards.&#8221;
Ed Yardeni and Eric Wallerstein of Yardeni Research pointed out that this week will see a slew of big tech companies report their earnings.
"The next round of fun begins this week and next week when the Magnificent-7 report Q4 results," the note said.
Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), and Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) will report earnings on Wednesday, Jan. 29. Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) will report on Thursday, Jan. 30.
Whereas Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) will report on Tuesday, Feb. 4, Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), on the other hand, won&#8217;t report until Feb. 26.
"The question is whether they will disappoint because their capital spending on AI is soaring faster than their revenues. That could squeeze their collective profit margin. The forward profit margin of the Mag-7 has soared from 18.0% at the start of 2023 to 25.5% during the Jan. 25 week," the note added.
As per the CME's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>, the probability of having no change in the rates was at 65.6% for March and 44.4% for May.
Talking about this and Bank of Japan's hike last week, the CEO of Mind Money Julia Khandoshko said, "In the current environment of global monetary uncertainty, with no clear timeline for when the Federal Reserve might further continue its easing rates, the BoJ's decision looks like a calculated response to economic challenges."

Earnings Scheduled For January 27, 2025

Sanmina's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SANM#NYSE">SANM</a>) short percent of float has risen 16.09% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 1.44 million shares sold short, which is 4.04% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 4.47 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.

<h3>Sanmina Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1735314315_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Sanmina has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Sanmina'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>, Sanmina's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.21%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
