<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

Shares of companies in the broader technology sector are trading higher after President Trump issued a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for all countries except China, which is restoring investor confidence.

Cadence Design Systems's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDNS#NYSE">CDNS</a>) short percent of float has risen 18.97% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 5.05 million shares sold short, which is 2.07% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.14 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?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">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/2025/1743789728_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Cadence Design Systems 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 Cadence Design Systems'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://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Cadence Design Systems's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.11%, 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?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

$100 Invested In This Stock 20 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/momentum-trading">momentum trade</a> just hit a wall and the unwind has been nothing short of brutal.
JPMorgan analysts Dubravko Lakos-Bujas, Arun Jain and Bhupinder Singh note that the sharp reversal in momentum has erased two years of gains in just three weeks &#8211; one of the fastest unwinds in four decades. 
With mega-caps leading the drop and a dramatic shift towards low-volatility stocks, investors need to rethink their strategies.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Behind The Crash?</h2>
Extreme crowding in momentum stocks &#8211; primarily fueled by AI enthusiasm, high-rate expectations and pro-growth bets—came under pressure as macro risks resurfaced. 
The result? A 17% average decline among the Mag-7, triggering a $5.8 trillion market cap wipeout in the S&amp;P 500.
While forced liquidations and systematic deleveraging have cooled the immediate risk of another crash, JPMorgan warns that if this is a true regime shift, the unwind may only be one-third complete.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Where Is Momentum Flowing?</h2>
Momentum is rotating away from quality growth and into low volatility and defensive plays. 
According to JPMorgan, stocks in the following sectors are seeing the strongest bid:
Utilities: NiSource Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NI#NYSE">NI</a>), Ameren Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEE#NYSE">AEE</a>) and Evergy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVRG#NASDAQ">EVRG</a>)
Insurance: Arthur J. Gallagher &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AJG#NYSE">AJG</a>), Brown &amp; Brown Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRO#NYSE">BRO</a>) and Aon PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AON#NYSE">AON</a>)
Financial Services: Visa Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>) and Mastercard Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>)
Crowding in low volatility names has surged, pushing relative P/E valuations to record highs.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What To Watch Next</h2>
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">The Low-Volatility Boom</h4>
With the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>) (small caps) lagging and defensive ETFs like the Invesco S&amp;P 500 Low Volatility ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPLV#NYSE">SPLV</a>) seeing inflows, the shift towards safety is clear. But JPMorgan warns that a further rate drop could push low volatility stocks into bubble territory, much like 2016.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">High-Volatility Bargains</h4>
According to JPMorgan, stocks that have seen heavy multiple compression, making them attractive for value-seeking investors, include:
Semiconductors: Monolithic Power Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPWR#NASDAQ">MPWR</a>), Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>))
Software: (Synopsys Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/snps#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>), Cadence Design Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDNS#NASDAQ">CDNS</a>), ServiceNow Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOW#NYSE">NOW</a>))
Tech Hardware: (Arista Networks Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/anet#NYSE">ANET</a>), NetApp Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTAP#NASDAQ">NTAP</a>), Dell Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>))
However, without an intra-cycle reset or Fed pivot, a broad move into beaten-down growth stocks may be premature.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">The Fed's Next Move</h4>
If rate expectations shift lower, expect bond proxies to gain further. If not, the defensive rally may stall, forcing a reassessment of positioning.
Momentum traders just got whipsawed and the rotation into low-volatility stocks has been rapid. While some safety plays look solid, overheating risks remain.
Investors should watch for signs of a structural shift &#8211; and be ready to pivot before the next wave hits.

Shares of companies in the broader technology sector are trading higher. The sector may be rising amid an overall rebound after investor uncertainty and several risk factors led to markets entering correction territory last week.

Intel Corp&#8217;s&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) incoming CEO, Lip-Bu Tan, is planning a major overhaul of the company&#8217;s chip manufacturing and artificial intelligence operations, aiming to breathe new life into the struggling tech giant.
What Happened: Tan is considering significant changes to the company&#8217;s approach to AI and chip manufacturing. This includes staff cuts to address what he sees as a slow-moving and bloated middle management layer, according to a Reuters report on Monday.
Revamping the manufacturing operations, which once exclusively produced chips, but now also cater to external clients like Nvidia, is one of Tan&#8217;s key priorities.
Tan, who was previously a member of Intel&#8217;s board and&nbsp;CEO of chip design software&nbsp;firm Cadence Design Systems (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDNS#NASDAQ">CDNS</a>) is poised to lead the company after a decade of setbacks under previous CEOs. These missteps led to Intel missing out on the booming demand for AI processors and smartphone chips, allowing competitors like Arm Holdings and Nvidia to dominate these markets.
Under Tan&#8217;s leadership, Intel is striving to enhance the performance of its manufacturing division, Intel Foundry, by actively securing new customers. The company also plans to restart the production of&nbsp;chips that drive AI servers&nbsp;and explore areas beyond servers, such as software, robotics, and AI foundation models.

Why It Matters: Despite the ambitious plans, Tan&#8217;s strategy seems to be an enhancement of former CEO Pat Gelsinger&#8216;s turnaround plan, which sought to reshape Intel into a contract chip manufacturer. However, Gelsinger&#8217;s plan had to be scaled back due to cooling demand for Intel&#8217;s core products.
Tan&#8217;s appointment as CEO was announced on March 13, and it led to a surge in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44297910/intel-stock-soars-nearly-12-in-thursday-pre-market-whats-going-on">Intel&#8217;s stock</a>. His incoming leadership and the proposed changes are seen as a potential turning point for Intel, which has been struggling to keep up with competitors in the rapidly evolving tech industry. In a town hall address held after his appointment, the CEO cautioned employees that the company will need to make &#8220;tough decisions.&#8221;
As Tan steps into his new role, the tech industry will be watching closely to see if his planned changes can turn around the fortunes of the ailing tech giant.
Intel stock has surged more than 18% over the past 5 days to close at $24.05 on Friday, as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Intel holds a momentum rating of 31.37% and a growth rating of 80.60%, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/report/INTC" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga's Proprietary Edge Rankings</a>.

Shares of companies in the broader technology sector are trading higher. The sector may be rising as the overall market rebounds after falling recently on tariff concerns.

Lip-Bu Tan, once praised by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) founder Morris Chang for rescuing Cadence Design Systems (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDNS#NASDAQ">CDNS</a>) from turmoil, is now <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/management/25/03/44291118/intel-stock-rallies-after-company-names-new-ceo-what-to-know">stepping in to lead</a> Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) at a critical turning point for the American chip giant.
What Happened: Back in 2016, Bu Tan was honored with the prestigious Morris Chang Exemplary Leadership Award by the Global Semiconductor Alliance (GSA), recognizing his transformational leadership as CEO of Cadence Design Systems.
At the time, Chang didn't hold back his praise.
"In 2009, Cadence was in pretty big trouble," Chang said. "And Lip-Bu led Cadence out of the trouble. In the last seven years, he has made it a very strong company. He instituted an execution-first, technology-first attitude in Cadence, made key acquisitions, attracted top talent, into Cadence and even more importantly he rejuvenated Cadence&#8217;s design tool."

Now, Tan has been appointed CEO of Intel. In a letter to employees, Tan said they were "in many ways" the "founders" of the "New Intel," signaling a fresh start for the struggling chipmaker.
Tan <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42344006/intel-interim-co-chief-expects-ceo-to-have-foundry-experience-stands-by-forecast">succeeds former CEO</a> Pat Gelsinger after months of executive search. A respected veteran with a background in physics and nuclear engineering, Tan previously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40593141/intel-board-member-lip-bu-tan-reportedly-left-after-disputes-with-ceo-and-other-directors-over-c">served on Intel's board</a> and has led numerous high-tech ventures throughout his career.
He reportedly resigned from the company's board following a dispute with Gelsinger.

Why It's Important: Intel's turnaround is a matter of national interest, as it plays a vital role in the U.S. semiconductor ecosystem. Tan is stepping in amid rising competition from TSMC and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43761300/intel-could-be-split-in-two-as-broadcom-and-tsmc-explore-deals-trump-white-house-resists-foreign-ownership-report">mounting pressure to keep Intel's</a> design and manufacturing operations intact.
Tan's legacy at Cadence — where he oversaw a revival in revenue and stock performance — suggests he may be the steady hand Intel needs.
At 65, he is no stranger to the chip industry. Born in Malaysia, he earned a degree in physics from Nanyang Technological University, then went on to get a master's in nuclear engineering from MIT and an MBA from the University of San Francisco.
A longtime technology investor, Tan has also chaired Walden International, a venture capital firm he founded in 1984, and served on the boards of Hewlett Packard Enterprise and SoftBank Group.
He led Cadence from 2009 to 2021, guiding the company from financial instability to market leadership in electronic design automation. In 2022, Tan joined Intel's board and was later given oversight of manufacturing operations.
Whether he can repeat his Cadence success at Intel remains to be seen. But if Chang's words hold true, Intel may have just handed the wheel to the one person capable of steering it through stormy waters.
Investors appear optimistic: Intel shares jumped about 11% in after-hours trading following the announcement. Year-to-date the company's shares are up 2.27%, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
