JP Morgan analyst Andrea Teixeira initiated coverage on Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CELH#NASDAQ">CELH</a>)<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CELH/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener"> with an Overweight rating and a price forecast of $37.</a>
Celsius Holdings ranks as the 3rd largest energy drink brand in the U.S., aligning with key consumer trends like health, wellness, and zero sugar. Despite a slowdown in the U.S. energy drink market, Teixeira sees the company&#8217;s strong growth prospects in these sectors will continue to drive top-tier growth.
According to the analyst, Celsius stands out in the energy drink market with broader appeal, attracting higher-income and female consumers. Its premium, &#8216;better-for-you&#8217; positioning and fruit-forward flavors make it more accessible to younger, white-collar workers, in contrast to brands like Monster Beverage Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MNST#NASDAQ">MNST</a>) or Red Bull.

The Vibe line, with bolder flavors, adds to its unique appeal. Unlike other emerging brands that faded, Celsius maintains staying power due to its distinct identity and differentiation, Teixeira writes.
Long-term, Celsius is positioned to benefit from key consumer trends, driving market share gains both in the U.S. and internationally.
As the category recovers and consumers increasingly choose functional beverages, Celsius&#8217; valuation discount may narrow compared to other fast-growing consumer brands.
The analyst suggests that Celsius&#8217; current 10% share of the U.S. market could see a 10-29% increase in equity value, assuming Monster&#8217;s U.S. market share drives 60-70% of its valuation.
This estimate, however, doesn&#8217;t account for further market share growth, international expansion, entry into new categories, or margin improvements, Teixeira adds.
The analyst projects the company to report adjusted earnings per share of $0.70 in FY24 and $0.96 in FY25.
Price Action: CELH shares are trading higher by 5.38% to $31.36 at last check Thursday.

<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 Monster Beverage 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 Monster Beverage'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>, Monster Beverage's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.62%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

The S&amp;P 500 index surged past the 6,000-point milestone, setting fresh record highs, and small-cap stocks are poised for their best weekly performance since April 2024 as investor optimism surrounding the &#8220;Trump trade&#8221; continued to fuel a strong risk-on sentiment by the end of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">wild week in the market</a>.

If you could go back in time to January 1, 2000, and tell your past self to make just one investment, what would it be?
Maybe&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), which has sold 1.5 billion iPhones since 2007 and reported a $21.45 billion profit last quarter?
Or&nbsp;Tesla Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:TSLA, which went from selling just 937 cars in 2009 to over 1.8 million last year?
Some savvy income investors might consider&nbsp;Altria Group Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MO#NYSE">MO</a>). The tobacco giant, formerly Phillip Morris International Inc., has grown its dividends by over 700% since the early 2000s. In fact, Altria was the most successful stock of the 20th century, turning every $1 invested into over $6,000.
But that was the 20th century. Since the year 2000, one little-known company has left these Wall Street darlings in the dust.
How an Energy Drink Company Thrashed Apple's, Tesla's, and Nvidia's Returns
Monster Beverage Corp.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MNST#NASDAQ">MNST</a>) is a company no one ever described as changing the world. It's not putting an iPhone into every third human's hand or solving climate change.
Yet this energy drink company returned over 140,000% from 2000 to 2024 so far — enough to turn every $1 invested into $1,400 and change.
Why was Monster Beverage able to dramatically outperform these world-changing companies?
Part of the reason comes from its size. Monster Beverage recorded $92 million in revenue in 2002 while Apple reported $5.7 billion. A smaller company can grow revenue—and ultimately its earnings and share price—much faster than a company that's already a behemoth.
But there's bigger factor at play. Apple spent $446 million on research and development in 2002 to stay ahead of its competitors and maintain its existing operations. By 2022, its annual operating costs had reached $274 billion.
To keep the lights on, Apple had to spend $274 billion, or the company could no longer make and sell products. By contrast, Monster Beverage spent just $4.6 billion on operating costs in 2022.
It turns out that an energy-drink business is a lot less capital-intensive than a tech business—and this difference, compounded over the years, means that Monster Beverage had hundreds of billions of dollars more to plow into growing its business by expanding operations and claiming greater market share.
A similar dynamic benefitted&nbsp;Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>). If you've ever wondered why the ticker symbol is KO rather than CO or CC, it's because Wall Street settled on an acronym for "knock out." The sentiment was that investing in Coca-Cola was a slam dunk because the invaluable brand name commanded loyalty from hundreds of millions around the world. How could investors go wrong?
Sure enough, $100 invested in Coca-Cola at the time of its 1919 initial public offering (IPO) would have turned into $1.25 million a century later. A lot of factors are behind that performance, but it's not a coincidence that Coca-Cola had to pay just $24 billion in operating costs in 2020, or less than 10% of what Apple paid.
So, while tech stocks understandably get most of the mainstream media's attention, investors should never discount the power of companies that can grow earnings each year without massive research and development budgets. As they say on Wall Street, "boring can be beautiful" when it comes to markets—and Monster Beverage proves it.
