HEICO Buys Marway Power, Widens Power Distribution Solution Capacity

Curtiss-Wright's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CW#NYSE">CW</a>) short percent of float has fallen 26.51% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 207 thousand shares sold short, which is 0.61% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.0 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 Curtiss-Wright 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 Curtiss-Wright'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>, Curtiss-Wright's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.21%, 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>

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil futures, closely followed by the United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>), surged 3.6% to close at $79.60 per barrel on Monday amid rising tensions <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/middle-east">in the Middle East. </a>
This marked the fifth consecutive day of gains and the second-strongest one-day surge year-to-date as the prospect of a war between Israel and Iran has stoked fears of significant disruptions to global oil supplies.
The tensions have been exacerbated by reports that Iran, along with its Lebanese proxy Hezbollah, is considering retaliatory action against Israel following the death of Ismail Haniyeh, a top Hamas leader, in Tehran on July 31.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">US Military Moves To Reinforce Middle East Presence</h3>
In response to the rising risk of a broader regional conflict, the Pentagon has significantly ramped up its military presence in the region. On Monday, <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2024/08/11/politics/defense-secretary-strike-group-iran/index.html">CNN</a> reported that U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordered the deployment of a carrier strike group equipped with F-35 jets and additional forces to deter potential Iranian aggression toward Israel.
On Sunday, the Pentagon disclosed that it had ordered the nuclear-powered submarine USS Georgia, armed with cruise missiles, into Middle Eastern waters. 
The USS Georgia had recently been operating in the Mediterranean Sea, completing training exercises near Italy. The movement of U.S. missile submarines is typically shrouded in secrecy.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Escalating Violence In Gaza</h3>
The situation in Gaza remains dire. On Saturday, Israeli airstrikes targeted a school building in Gaza City, killing hundreds of people, according to Palestinian health authorities.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) on its official account on X said the building housed 31 terrorist from Hamas and Islamic Jihad.
LTG Herzi Halevi, IDF chief of the general staff, stressed the importance of maintaining a high level of preparedness for both offensive and defensive operations. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">US Defense Stocks Moving On Monday</h3>
Despite the escalating tensions, U.S. defense stocks, tracked by the iShares U.S. Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITA#NYSE">ITA</a>), closed relatively flat on Monday, but are trading around 3% below record highs.

Peering Into Curtiss-Wright's Recent Short Interest

The aerospace defense equipment industry has maintained its northbound journey amid supply-chain woes. Nevertheless, improving defense budget funding from the U.S. administration and impressive year-over-year projections for global air passenger numbers are likely to boost this space in the second half of 2024.
The aerospace defense equipment industry comprises companies that primarily design and manufacture heavy-built products like commercial as well as military jets and helicopters, tankers and other combat vehicles, missiles, combatant ships as well as auxiliary ships, submarines, bombs, guns, space transportation vehicles, military satellites and a few more.
The industry stood its ground on the back of steady government support. Importantly, in March 2024, the fiscal 2025 defense budget request was submitted by President Joe Biden. This included a funding proposal of $849.8 billion for the U.S. Department of Defense, which reflected a 1% increase from the fiscal 2024 enacted funding amount.
Steadily improving global air traffic data in recent times has been boosting the near-term growth prospects of the industry. As stated in the latest report published by the IATA in June, total travelers are expected to reach 4.96 billion in 2024 &mdash; a record high. Total revenues are expected to reach $996 billion in 2024 &mdash; a record high, reflecting an improvement of 9.7% year over year.
The Zacks-defined Aerospace &ndash; Defense Equipment Industry is currently in the top 14% of the Zacks Industry Rank. In the past year, the industry has provided 28.1% returns, while its year-to-date return is 15.2%. Since it is ranked in the top half of Zacks Ranked Industries, we expect the consulting services industry to outperform the market over the next three to six months.
<h3>Our Top Picks</h3>
We have narrowed our search to five aerospace defense equipment stocks that have strong growth potential for the rest of 2024. These stocks have seen positive earnings estimate revisions in the last 60 days. Each of our picks sports either a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy).
The chart below shows the price performance of our five picks year to date.

The partnership has decided to use hermetically sealed (canned) motors instead of traditional mechanical seals for the subsea pumping motors. This should significantly increase the efficiency and reliability of the pumping system. Increased reliability means fewer unplanned disruptions, thereby reducing subsequent production losses for the company. Additionally, these subsea pumping motors can extract a mixture of raw oil and gas from water depths of up to 4,921 feet.
In a press release, Petrobras stated that the new equipment is aimed at reducing the cost associated with vessels and reviving old, mature fields. The new pumping system will also facilitate production over long subsea flowlines that connect the well directly to the platform.&nbsp;
Petrobras and Curtiss-Wright have stated their plans to start prototype testing of this technology in 2026. The testing is expected to take place in the Jubarte and Espadarte fields, located in the Campos Basin offshore Brazil. The companies have further stated that the technology could be introduced in the market as early as 2028, if the testing proves to be a success.
Subsea pumping systems are useful in pumping the reservoir fluid to the platform at increased flow rates. However, with the current technology available in the market, these pumps have a short lifespan of approximately three years and can cost nearly $70 million to exchange them at the end of their service. Petrobras has highlighted that with the development of the new technology, the lifespan of these pumps could be doubled.
The new pumping system may share similarities with other motors available on the market, including those used by Curtiss-Wright. However, a key feature of this new system is a sealless mudline pump specifically designed to process oil. Petrobras believes that this new technology will be revolutionary for the entire oil and gas industry. This also demonstrates the oil giant&#39;s dedication to continuous innovation that will improve its operational efficiency and help earn huge profits.
Specialists from both companies are also studying an advanced version of the prototype under development. This version will have an increased lifespan of nearly 10 years with the capacity to operate more than one well simultaneously. This will contribute to significant cost reduction and boost productivity, per Petrobras&#39; statement.
Curtiss-Wright is a multinational business specializing in highly engineered products and solutions, primarily catering to the Aerospace &amp; Defense markets. The company is also involved in the development of critical technologies used in demanding sectors such as Commercial Power, Process and Industrial markets.
