<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 Progressive'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>, Progressive's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.51%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

21 Analysts Assess Progressive: What You Need To Know

WIIM

Progressive shares are trading higher after Morgan Stanley raised its price target on the stock from $310 to $320 and maintained an Overweight rating.

Over the past three weeks, shares of Progressive Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PGR#NYSE">PGR</a>) have declined by 8%, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/s-p-500">underperforming the S&amp;P 500</a> by more than 1,000 basis points, according to BofA Securities.
The Progressive Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58c6ab8bb85e9300015f1ad8/joshua-shanker">Analyst Joshua Shanker</a> upgraded the rating from Neutral to Buy, while raising the price target from $297 to $312.
The Progressive Thesis: Earlier this month, the company announced its March 2025 results, adding a net 572,000 new personal auto customers, representing a month of the highest growth in its history, Shankar said in the upgrade note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
"It remains to be seen to what degree tariffs will be implemented by the Trump administration, creating uncertainty," the analyst wrote.
Shankar pointed out that supply-chain disruptions during the pandemic and post-pandemic periods resulted in the steepest auto insurance price hikes in 50 years, boosting profitability and market share gains for Progressive. Similarly tariff-induced inflation may act as "a tailwind to Progressive&#8217;s success and PGR stock performance," he further stated.
PGR Price Action: Shares of Progressive had risen by 1.7% to $274.19 at the time of publication on Tuesday.

Shares of stocks in the broader financial sector are trading lower amid overall market weakness amid President Trump's criticism of Fed Chair Powell.

Progressive's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PGR#NYSE">PGR</a>) short percent of float has fallen 12.93% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 5.89 million shares sold short, which is 1.01% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.43 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>Progressive Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744916420_0_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Progressive 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 Progressive'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>, Progressive's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.41%, 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?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
