What Analysts Are Saying About Quanta Services Stock

A Reddit user recently posted a simple question in <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/passive_income/comments/1lkamoo/what_is_that_one_thing_that_gave_you_the/">r/passive_income</a>: "Can someone kindly share the one thing that happened in their life that changed their finances for the rest of their life?"&nbsp;
The post titled, &#8216;What is that one thing that gave you the financial freedom you have today?&#8217; got wide-ranging, honest, and surprisingly relatable responses.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Military Pensions To Vending Machines</h2>
For some, it was the structure and sacrifice of military life. One person wrote, "I decided to stay in the military till retirement. There are not a lot of jobs anymore that have a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43432805/workers-long-for-the-day-pensions-make-a-comeback-83-say-everyone-deserves-a-pension-not-just-public-employees">guaranteed pension</a>. It was a long haul&#8230; but now I have a pension for life." Others echoed this, calling it "definitely worth it on the back end, minus all the aches and pains."

</ul>
Others found their turning point in investing. One person shared: "Getting a side hustle and constantly funneling my earnings into [Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (Arca: VOO)] and just letting it compound." Another kept it simple: "I <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-on-a-60000-salary">started investing</a>. Hard."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Power Of Saving And Self-Discipline</h2>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40465160/think-youre-saving-enough-heres-what-the-top-10-have-saved-for-retirement">Saving consistently</a> showed up as one of the most powerful forces behind financial freedom. One person said they saved 25% of every paycheck since their first job and invested it: "It's now worth over $400K. I still treat it like money I can't touch."
Another shared, "Save and invest as much as you can but still have fun sometimes. Time is the most valuable resource."
Journaling also came up in a surprising way. "I just started a journal about my financial situation," one person said. "From starting out to now, I've moved through two jobs seeing my income go from $60K to over $180K."
Trending: Invest early in CancerVax's breakthrough tech aiming to disrupt a $231B market. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/this-company-may-have-found-a-way-to-treat-cancer-by-tricking-the-bodys-immune-system-and-early-studies-show-some-promise-find-out-how-you-can-invest-in-the-future-of-cancer-treatment">Back a bold new approach to cancer treatment with high-growth potential.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Taking Unusual Routes</h2>
A few users shared unconventional yet profitable paths. One started arbitrage betting and claimed to have made $120,000 since 2022. Another used their U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-va-loan-rates">loan</a> to buy a duplex, living on one side and renting the other short-term to cover the mortgage.
An entrepreneurial user started a vending machine business with just one machine in a bar. "Fast forward, I've got 75+ machines placed in nightlife spots and it became real income," they wrote.
One of the most unique stories came from someone who seized an opportunity during the pandemic: "I advertised, &#8216;Let me run your errand for only $3.&#8217; Next morning my phone was flooded with messages. Made over $5K."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Seeing Opportunity Everywhere</h2>
Shifting how people think about money was just as important as what they actually did with it. A top commenter explained, "I became financially secure once I changed my mindset and started thinking outside the box." They added that spotting a dryer repairman inspired them: "It was easy to do and can be learned watching a 5-minute YouTube vid. It's in demand, cheap to start, and high margin."
From fixing appliances to investing in cannabis stocks during the hype, the stories reflect different strategies but a similar realization: taking action matters more than waiting for the perfect plan.
Whether it was grinding through hard work or getting lucky once, the biggest lesson from the thread wasn&#8217;t about getting rich fast. It was that usually, there&#8217;s just one habit, decision, or mindset change that ends up making a big difference.

<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.

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>, Western Union's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.05%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

<h2>Analyst Ratings: Simplified</h2>
Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.
Analysts attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish their ratings on stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter or whenever the company has a major update.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.

Rockwell Automation Stock: A Deep Dive Into Analyst Perspectives (18 Ratings)

Element Solutions's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESI#NYSE">ESI</a>) short percent of float has fallen 19.6% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 4.95 million shares sold short, which is 2.83% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.25 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.

<h3>Comparing Element Solutions'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>, Element Solutions's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.63%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

How Is The Market Feeling About Gartner?

In the current market session, Western Digital Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WDC#NASDAQ">WDC</a>) stock price is at $63.80, after a 0.06% drop. However, over the past month, the company's stock went up by 17.40%, and in the past year, by 9.62%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751464818_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Western Digital P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Western Digital has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 28.59 of the Technology Hardware, Storage &amp; Peripherals industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751464818_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

UnitedHealth Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>) shares are moving lower Wednesday in sympathy with Centene, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/guidance/25/07/46209736/centene-withdraws-2025-guidance-shares-dive">withdrew its 2025 guidance</a>. 
What Happened: Late Tuesday, health insurer Centene warned that it expects earnings to come up short of prior expectations. The company withdrew its 2025 earnings per share guidance as a result.
Centene said that overall market growth in 22 of the company's 29 marketplace states was lower than previously expected based on the company's preliminary interpretation of marketplace data from independent actuarial firm Wakely.&nbsp;
Centene forecasted an estimated reduction of its previous full-year net risk adjustment revenue transfer&nbsp;expectations of approximately $1.8 billion, representing an adjusted earnings impact of approximately $2.75 per share.
United Health and other health insurer stocks moved lower alongside Centene. In May, United Health <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45373368/unitedhealth-stock-plunges-names-new-ceo-suspends-2025-guidance">suspended</a> its 2025 guidance as care activity accelerated and broadened to more types of benefit offerings and medical costs remained higher than the company expected. 
Shares of Elevance and Humana were also moving lower at last check, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
United Health shares are down approximately 35% year-to-date amid rising medical costs. The company said on an earnings call earlier this year that even common procedures can cost up to four times more in the U.S. than in other countries.
CEO Andrew Witty stepped down as CEO in May and was replaced by Stephen Hemsley, who previously held the CEO role from 2006 to 2017. United Health has said it expects to return to growth in 2026. 
UNH Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/UNH">United Health shares</a> were down 2.18% at $319.02 at the time of publication Wednesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) shares are trading relatively flat on Wednesday, following a batch of mixed news, including a federal investigation, solid brand <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" rel="noreferrer noopener">performance, and a corporate update</a>.
The company is facing a federal recall <a target="_blank" href="https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/inv/2025/INOA-RQ25002-13790.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">probe</a> by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) concerning nearly 299,000 Stellantis vehicles.
The investigation, known as Recall Query RQ25002, is focused on gear shifter cable bushings, which could deteriorate and detach, potentially causing the transmission to remain in an unintended gear despite the shifter appearing normal. This poses a risk of the vehicle rolling away if the driver exits without it being in PARK.

This issue was previously addressed in a 2019 recall (19V-293) for 2013–2016 Dodge Dart vehicles, but 44 complaints of recurring problems prompted the new probe to assess the effectiveness of the prior fix and explore other potential causes.
In corporate news, the company announced it will report its first-half 2025 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/g46217299/stellantis-to-announce-first-half-2025-results-on-july-29" rel="noreferrer noopener">financial results on Tuesday, July 29.</a>
In a separate release, Stellantis said FCA US reported a total of 309,973 vehicles sold in the U.S. during the second quarter of 2025, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/n46210551/fca-us-reports-second-quarter-2025-us-sales-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">down 10% from the prior year</a>.
However, the Ram and Jeep brands showed strength, with the Ram 1500, ProMaster van, and Jeep Wrangler among the standout performers.

What's Going On With Bitcoin Mining Stock Cipher (CIFR) Wednesday?

With President Trump's &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/financing/25/07/46215975/trumps-big-beautiful-bill-offers-seniors-a-6000-bonus-tax-deduction-heres-how-you-qualify-for-the-">One Big Beautiful Bill</a>&#8221; narrowly passing the Senate, market watchers say the broader economic fallout could create tailwinds for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and digital assets, even as direct crypto measures were left out of the legislation.
What Happened: Santiment <a href="https://x.com/santimentfeed/status/1940150509283020800">data</a> points out how the Big Beautiful Bill passing may be bullish for cryptocurrencies. 
Though the bill contained no specific crypto provisions, traders and analysts are focused on its economic ripple effects: large tax cuts and bonus depreciation may benefit Bitcoin miners, rising Treasury issuance could prompt Fed easing, injecting liquidity into markets and there's a possibility of looser monetary conditions if debt pressures mount.
Analytics firm Santiment noted that the bill could revive investor appetite for digital assets, with $107,000 BTC eventually seen as a bargain entry once broader bullish sentiment returns.

Why It Matters: The bill's exclusion of Senator Cynthia Lummis' (R-Wyo.) crypto tax amendment, which aimed to address taxation issues for staking, mining, and micro transactions, was a letdown for the industry. Still, the macro backdrop remains favourable for crypto.
Nic Puckrin, founder of CoinBureau, believes the bill will accelerate dollar devaluation by adding $3.3 trillion to U.S. debt. 
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) has already logged its worst start to the year since 1973, signalling weakening fiat sentiment, typically bullish for Bitcoin as a hedge.
Puckrin emphasized that while Fed Chair Jerome Powell remains cautious, growing pressure from Trump and some FOMC members to slash rates, possibly to 1%, could soon force a pivot. 
He believes once the rate cuts arrive, liquidity will flood markets, and Bitcoin's bull run will ignite, with current prices offering deep value.
What's Next: Markets may be experiencing a brief "sell-the-rumour, buy-the-news" reaction, but traders expect momentum to shift as the House votes and macro conditions evolve. 
In Puckrin's words, the bill "sets the stage for a macro-driven Bitcoin expansion," and once dust settles, the crypto market could see explosive upside.
