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.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Camden Property Trust</h2>
RBC Capital Markets <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/595e3a7c988ca80001dc7da1/brad-heffern">analyst Brad Heffern</a> downgraded the ratings for Camden Property Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPT#NYSE">CPT</a>) from Outperform to Sector Perform, while keeping the price target at $122.
While Camden Property Trust reported stronger-than-expected July quarter results, these were largely driven by the peak leasing season rather than improving fundamentals, Heffern said in the downgrade note. He expects the company to miss its guidance for the back half of 2024.
This may be "another long fall/winter for the Sun Belt," the analyst wrote. "While tapering supply is in sight, the supply problem could be replaced by a demand problem if move-outs to buy a home return to normal levels as rates come down," he further stated.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Invitation Homes</h2>
RBC Capital Markets <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5aabc09cb023000001cb8b57/bill-peterson">analyst Brad Heffern</a> downgraded the ratings for Invitation Homes Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INVH#NYSE">INVH</a>) from Outperform to Sector Perform, while lowering the price target from $37 to $36.
The leasing spreads for Invitation Homes in the third quarter "show further deceleration, and we think renewals show a higher level of tenant push back on rate increases," Heffern said. "For-sale housing could potentially become a headwind with mortgage rates moving lower.&#8221;
Given the high average resident income, tenants are more likely to afford a house, the analyst stated. "We continue to think 2025 consensus estimates are too high, especially with headwinds from INVH&#8217;s swaps rolling off," he further wrote.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">LGI Homes</h2>
Wedbush <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5967569b988ca8000127b8db/jay-mccanless">analyst Jay McCanless</a> upgraded the ratings for LGI Homes Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LGIH#NASDAQ">LGIH</a>) from underperform to Neutral, while raising the price target from $97 to $125.
LGI Homes generated sales absorption of 4.6 homes per month in August, the highest absorption pace since December 2023, McCanless said in the upgrade note. 
The company appears to be on track "to achieve our F3Q24 closing forecast of 1.8k homes assuming September&#8217;s sales absorption and community count are in line with August&#8217;s levels," he added.
The catalysts for the stock include the pullback in share price from Aug. 30 to Sept. 6, a potential for positive cash flow reversal and steady declines in mortgage rates so far in the third quarter, the analyst stated. 
"Cash flow trajectory should shift from a net outflow to a net inflow during F4Q24 and F1Q25," he further wrote.
Price action at the time of publication:
<ul>
<li>Camden Property Trust's shares were down by 0.29% to $121.84</li>
<li>Shares of Invitation Homes had declined by 1.17% to $35.54</li>
<li>LGI Homes' stock had jumped by 2.14% to $107.04</li>

Goldman Sachs analyst Julien Blouin initiated coverage of several multifamily REITs and single-family rental REITs companies.
Initiating with a Buy rating, the analyst kept the price target for Invitation Homes Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INVH#NYSE">INVH</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/INVH/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">at $46</a>,&nbsp;&nbsp;Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAA#NYSE">MAA</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MAA/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">at $187</a> and American Homes 4 Rent (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMH#NYSE">AMH</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/amh/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">at $48.</a>
The analyst says that for single-family REITs like AMH and INVH, strong demand driven by demographics, home affordability, and migratory trends is expected to lead to re-accelerating same-store revenue growth in 2025 and 2026 as competitive rental supply pressures ease.
In particular, the analyst expects AMH and INVH to experience the highest same-store revenue growth among their covered stocks in 2025. Additionally, Blouin says that AMH&#8217;s upcoming development projects will enable the company to achieve superior external growth.
On the other hand, Blouin started coverage at a Neutral rating on Camden Property Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPT#NYSE">CPT</a>), Equity Residential (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQR#NYSE">EQR</a>), and Essex Property Trust, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESS#NYSE">ESS</a>), with a price target of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/cpt/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">$139</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eqr/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">$81</a> and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ess/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">$318</a>, respectively.
The analyst expects rent growth in ESS's markets to stay strong, driven by improving migration trends in the company's suburban areas (~60% of exposure based on GS estimates, 47% per CoStar).
However, they anticipate that EQR to encounter a significant supply challenge in its urban submarkets.
Apart from this, the analyst initiated coverage on UDR, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UDR#NYSE">UDR</a>) at a Sell rating, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UDR/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">with a price target of $42</a>.
For UDR, Blouin expects solid rent growth for UDR, driven by improving migration in suburban areas (~70% exposure per GS and UDR's estimates, ~50% according to CoStar). This will be partially offset by outmigration from urban areas (~30% of the portfolio).
Also, same-store expense growth is projected to be in the low 4% range, about 100 basis points above consensus, adds the analyst.
Overall, the analyst writes that in residential REIT sector, declining supply is creating a favorable growth environment. For Sunbelt multifamily REITs, while suburban migration is moderating, Blouin anticipates a sharper decline in supply, which will drive accelerating same-store revenue growth.
