Every time the Federal Reserve (the Fed) cuts interest rates, investors tend to flock to the sectors they believe will outperform the most due to historical reactions and fundamental reasoning. However, this rate cut is a bit different than the ones experienced in the recent past, as the United States economy is more globalized and a bit slower than before.
This will be a different case study, one in which rising credit card delinquency rates and spiking car repossessions will place a headwind in the consumer discretionary sector despite interest rate cuts, one that will slow down easier financing rates to boost the energy sector now that the 22-month contraction in the manufacturing PMI index drove business activity down, and one in which the dollar is as strong as it was during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Mixing these factors together, investors should focus on the effect of interest rates on company fundamentals rather than consumer or economic impacts since those may be a bit blurred in today&#39;s environment. By company fundamentals, the balance sheet is kept in the first place, especially the way lower interest expenses can affect utility stocks like Dominion Energy Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/d#NYSE">D</a>) and dividend real estate investment trusts (REITs) like Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bip#NYSE">BIP</a>).
<h2>Why Utility Stocks Thrive in a Low Interest Rate Environment</h2>
Typically, utility stocks carry more debt on their balance sheet than the average industry and, as a result, will have a higher interest expense on their income statement. For this reason, lower interest rates open up more room in their financials due to lower interest expenses, directly pushing earnings per share (EPS) higher.
Since stock prices are driven by their underlying earnings, investors can see how a domino effect can benefit the utility sector if the underlying stocks and their individual balance sheets carry enough debt to make this factor a reality. One such example can be made out of Dominion Energy.
This utility stock carries up to 61% debt on its balance sheet, so it is safe to assume that lower rates will significantly impact its earning power. Now that the stock trades at 98% of its 52-week high, investors can note how the market has recently rewarded this name with better price action than even the S&amp;P 500.
More than that, this stock offers shareholders up to 4.6% as an annual dividend yield today, beating the Fed&#39;s target inflation rate by twice as much. Since utility stocks also have a subscription-based business model, investors can see how cash flows are safer and more predictable here to cushion any potential market volatility.
This is why Wall Street analysts forecast up to $0.75 in EPS for the next 12 months in Dominion Energy stock, a significant jump from today&#39;s 0.65 a share or a 15.3% jump.
Leaning on these projections, Jefferies Financial decided to initiate coverage on the stock at a $58 a share valuation, which is roughly where it trades today, though that might change soon.
Facing this fundamentally bullish trend, bears decided to move out of the stock during the past month, as Dominion&#39;s short interest declined over the past quarter to show signs of bearish capitulation today. Low interest rates can help utility stocks improve their earning power and dividend strength, and other sectors like real estate benefit as well.
<h2>Low Interest Rates Boost Rental Income Potential in Dividend Real Estate Stocks</h2>
Here is how lower rates push the income potential for property stocks, especially REITs in agnostic asset classes like infrastructure. This is where Brookfield Infrastructure Partners stock comes into play.
As financing rates and liquidity become available, acquisitions and additions to the company&#39;s real estate portfolio automatically generate more income from tenants and create higher upside potential through the ensuing appreciation of these new properties.
This REIT&#39;s balance sheet shows 64.3% debt, so the same effect in the utility sector is true here: lower interest expenses lead to better earning potential.
These fundamental truths led Wall Street analysts to forecast up to $0.84 in EPS for the next 12 months, up from today&#39;s net loss of $0.10 a share.
Driven by this potential profit growth in the next 12 months, management feels comfortable paying investors up to 4.8% in a dividend yield, which could see further strength as lower interest rates enable the company to expand its property income.
More than that, analysts have also landed on a consensus price target of $37.6 a share, calling for up to 11.1% upside from the stock&#39;s current level. Considering that it already trades at its 52-week high, analysts are directly calling for the stock to reach a new high in cadence with bullish price action and sentiment toward the stock and the sector.

Jim Cramer Says This Utilities Stock Is A Buy: 'We Need Cheap Power'

Jefferies analyst Paul Zimbardo initiates coverage on Dominion Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/D#NYSE">D</a>) with a Hold rating and announces Price Target of $58.

Jefferies Initiates Coverage On Dominion Energy with Hold Rating, Announces Price Target of $58

Americans receiving <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40800774/gen-xs-looming-retirement-crisis-is-worse-than-they-realize-expert-compares-it-to-being-handed-a">Social Security payments</a> may see less of an increase next year, according to a nonprofit group that represents senior citizens.
The Social Security Administration is poised to announce its yearly cost of living adjustment (COLA) for payments to 71 million Americans in the middle of next month, effective in January 2025. The government agency handed out a 3.2% increase for this year last October.
The Senior Citizens League expects a 2.5% increase for next year, based on inflation falling from 2.9% in July to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40815794/fed-is-all-clear-for-launch-on-cutting-rates-as-inflation-falls-to-lowest-point-in-">2.5% in August</a>.
By law, the annual inflation adjustment is based on the average inflation during July, August, and September&nbsp;as measured by the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W).

The Bureau of Labor Statistics averages the CPI-W for these three months and then compares it with the same time frame from the previous year. The percentage difference between the two is the COLA, payable for checks received in January 2025. 
The league says the expected 2.5% increase will not be enough for seniors to meet the higher cost of living. 
Nearly 80% of senior households report that their monthly budget for essential items like food, housing, and prescription drugs had increased over the last 12 months, according to a 2024 survey taken by the organization. Almost two-thirds &#8212; 63% &#8212; say they&#8217;re worried that their income won&#8217;t be enough to cover these basic costs in the coming months.
&#8220;Ensuring that seniors have enough to feed and house themselves with dignity is a major reason why we advocate for a minimum COLA of 3%,&#8221; said Shannon Benton, the league&#8217;s executive&nbsp;director.&nbsp;
She said about two-thirds of seniors rely on Social Security for more than half of their monthly income, and 28% depend on it entirely.

Social Security Payments Set For 2.5% Increase Next Year; Retirement-Oriented Dividend Stocks Like Coca-Cola, Wells Fargo See Gains

Dominion Energy's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/D#NYSE">D</a>) short percent of float has risen 3.17% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 16.36 million shares sold short, which is 1.95% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 5.39 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 Dominion Energy 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 Dominion 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>, Dominion Energy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.90%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Markets experienced a sharp downturn, driven by heightened geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainties that negatively impacted investor risk sentiment, just a day after the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting signaled a potential interest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/07/40080168/jerome-powell-finally-concedes-rate-cut-could-be-on-the-table-in-september-stocks-gold-rise-dollar">rate cut in September.</a>
U.S. economic data released Thursday revealed a larger-than-expected rise in weekly jobless claims and a more pronounced contraction in manufacturing activity for July. 
Initial unemployment claims increased to 249,000, up from 235,000 the previous week, marking the highest level in nearly a year. The ISM manufacturing PMI dropped to 46.8% in July, extending its contraction for the fourth consecutive month and reaching its lowest point since December 2023.
In geopolitical developments, Israel announced the elimination of Hamas&#8217; military leader Mohammed Deif in a Gaza strike last month. This event followed the assassination of another top Hamas official in Tehran and the killing of Hezbollah&#8217;s commander in Beirut. Iranian officials are considering retaliatory measures against Israel, which has vowed to respond to any threats with force.
Amid rising risk aversion, Wall Street abruptly reversed prior session gains. The S&amp;P 500 Index declined by about 1% in midday trading in New York, while the Nasdaq 100 fell by 1.5% due to another wave of semiconductor selloffs driven by disappointing corporate earnings reports.
The economically-sensitive Russell 2000 index plummeted over 3%, heading for its worst session since April.
Safe-haven assets gained traction, with both the U.S. dollar and Treasuries seeing increased demand. The U.S. dollar index (DXY), tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>), rose 0.3%, while long-term Treasuries, as represented by the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>), surged 0.7%.
Oil prices declined by 1.5% after a 4.4% surge the previous day, as investors focused on demand concerns amid weakening economic indicators. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) fell by 2.6%, trading at $62,900.

Dominion Energy Reaffirms 2024 Adj. EPS Outlook Of $2.62-$2.87 vs $2.79 Estimate

After Wednesday&#8217;s tech-led rebound amid the Federal Reserve&#8217;s rate decision, the stock market could be in for further gains. The major index futures point to a higher opening, although suggesting a slowdown in the upward momentum is in the cards. Despite <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/07/40080168/jerome-powell-finally-concedes-rate-cut-could-be-on-the-table-in-september-stocks-gold-rise-dollar">Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell&#8217;s non-committal stance, </a>the market has begun discounting a September rate cut. This is evident from the extended pullback in bond yields and the rally in dollar-denominated commodities. The imminent release of the July non-farm payrolls report could introduce some caution.
The market could receive support from positive reactions to Meta Platforms, Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) earnings even as it may choose to remain on &#8220;wait-and-watch&#8221; mode ahead of another batch of mega-cap tech earnings from the likes of Amazon, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>).

In premarket trading on Thursday,&nbsp;the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) moved up 0.31% to $547.16, and the&nbsp;Invesco QQQ ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) rose 0.48% to $473.35, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks closed Wednesday&#8217;s session higher, with the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite rising solidly amid positive reaction to tech earnings. The Dow Jones Industrials Averages saw some moments of anxiety but stayed mostly in the green before closing modestly higher. All three averages experienced some degree of volatility amid the Fed decision, rising sharply following the release of the post-meeting policy statement. They gave back much of these gains after Powell&#8217;s presser and yet closed firmly in the green.
As expected, the central bank used the July meeting to prepare the markets for a September rate cut, said Jeffrey Roach, chief economist at LPL Financial. The rate-setting committee noted a slowdown in the labor market and said Inflation continued to move into better balance.
Weighing in on Powell&#8217;s press conference, &nbsp;Chris Zaccarelli, Chief Investment Officer at Independent Advisor Alliance, said the chairman tried to strike a neutral tone. Powell explained &#8220;why today was too soon to cut rates, but effectively said that his base case was for a 25 bps rate cut even while leaving open the possibility that they may be forced to wait again (e.g. zero cuts) or even that they would move even more quickly (e.g. several cuts),&#8221; he said.
IT stocks rallied strong and hard, while communication services, consumer discretionary, industrial, material and utility stocks also gained ground.

Insights From Analysts:
Monica Guerra, Head of Policy, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, said analysis of several key economic indicators suggests the Republican candidate may still have an edge in the November election. &#8220;Recent economic cooling may be a disadvantage for Democrats, with slower annualized first-quarter GDP growth of 1.3%, down from 3.4% in 2023's fourth quarter, corresponding to a 1.4% drop in the president's approval rating this year,&#8221; she said.
Still elevated prices and interest rates, which will likely remain high by historical standards even after the Fed cut rates, may not bode well for the Democratic nominee, she added
Guerra said the performances of different equity sectors also point to a Republican win. She noted that her team experimented with two equity baskets each containing 12 sectors and industry ETFs that could benefit from a Democratic or Republican win. &#8220;So far this year, the Republican basket (which includes sectors such as Energy, Materials, Utilities and Real Estate) has outperformed by 9% the Democratic basket (including solar energy, tech and infrastructure stocks). This suggests growing investor confidence in a GOP victory,&#8221; she said.
Upcoming Economic Data:
<ul>
<li>The Labor Department is due to release the weekly jobless claims report at 8:30 a.m. EDT. Economists, on average, expect the number of individuals claiming unemployment benefits to come in at 235,000 in the week ended July 27, flat with the number for the previous reporting week.</li>
<li>The S&amp;P Global will release the final July manufacturing purchasing managers&#8217; index at 9:45 a.m. EDT. Flash reading released in July showed a reading of 49.5, suggesting contracting activity, down from 51.6 in June.</li>
<li>The Institute for Supply Management is due to release the results of its national manufacturing survey at 10 a.m. EDT. The manufacturing PMI for July is expected at 48.9, slightly up from 48.5 in June.</li>
<li>The Commerce Department&#8217;s construction spending report, due at 10 a.m. EDT, is expected to show a 0.2% month-over-month increase following a 0.1% drop in May.</li>
<li>The Treasury will auction four- and eight-week bills at 11:30 a.m. EDT.</li>
