<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.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737732647_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Xcel Energy 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 Xcel Energy'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>, Xcel Energy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.30%, which means the company has less 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>

On Thursday, Xcel Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XEL#NASDAQ">XEL</a>) announced that it will extend the operation of its Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant, following a recent license renewal by the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b42767152/xcel-energys-monticello-nuclear-plant-receives-federal-approval-to-extend-operations" rel="noreferrer noopener">U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.</a>
The federal approval allows the plant to continue operating for an additional 20 years, until 2050, subject to approval by state regulators. This extension is pivotal to Xcel Energy&#8217;s goal of achieving 100% carbon-free electricity by reinforcing the role of nuclear energy in its clean energy transition.
The Monticello plant has been a vital source of clean, safe, and reliable energy for more than 500,000 homes in the Upper Midwest.

Xcel Energy Chairman, President, and CEO Bob Frenzel emphasized the importance of the plant in accelerating the company&#8217;s clean energy journey.
&#8220;As the only 24/7 carbon-free energy source we have, nuclear energy will be key to accelerating our journey to a clean energy future while ensuring we also meet the unprecedented growth in our customers&#8217; demand for electricity,&#8221; Frenzel added.
The NRC&#8217;s decision follows a thorough multi-year review process, including extensive inspections, audits, and technical assessments to ensure the plant meets rigorous safety and environmental standards.
The Minnesota Public Utilities Commission has already approved extending Monticello&#8217;s operations through 2040, and Xcel Energy will seek further approval for the remaining 10 years.
In addition to its environmental role, the Monticello plant is a major economic contributor to the region, providing significant employment and tax revenue to the local community.
Price Action: XEL shares are trading lower by 0.64% to $67.09 at last check Thursday.

<h3>Xcel Energy P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry 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. 
Xcel Energy has a better P/E ratio of 20.24 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 17.84 of the Electric Utilities industry. Ideally, one might believe that Xcel Energy Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1735223411_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
