<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 State Street'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>, State Street's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.12%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

Wall Street Rebounds, Eli Lilly Rallies, UnitedHealth Group Plummets: What's Driving Markets Thursday?

State Street Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STT#NYSE">STT</a>) shares are trading lower on Thursday after the company <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported its first quarter results.</a>
The company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://s203.q4cdn.com/888565246/files/doc_financials/2025/q1/STT-1Q25-Earnings-Press-Release-vFinal.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">quarterly </a>earnings per share of $2.04, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $1.99.
Quarterly sales of $3.28 billion (+4.7% year over year) missed the street view of $3.32 billion.
&#8220;Through broad-based year-over-year fee revenue growth and continued expense discipline, we achieved positive fee and total operating leverage alongside healthy pre-tax margin expansion, all while continuing to return capital to our shareholders,&#8221; said State Street CEO Ron O&#8217;Hanley.

Net interest income remained broadly flat year over year to $714 million, as higher investment security yields and continued loan growth were offset by lower average short-end rates and a deposit mix shift.
Provision for credit losses fell year-over-year to $12 million from $27 million in the year-ago period.
In the quarter under review, State Street returned a total of $320 million of capital to common shareholders, including $100 million of common share repurchases and $220 million (or 76 cents per share) of declared dividends.
Common equity tier 1 ratio at the end of first quarter was 11%, compared with 11.1% a year ago.
O'Hanley noted that investors and the global economy face heightened uncertainty driven by geopolitical tensions and shifting government policies on trade, deficits, taxation, and deregulation.
&#8220;State Street has a long-standing history of resilience and adaptability, which has seen us through many challenging operating environments and has equipped us to effectively support our clients,&#8221; he added.
Price Action: STT shares are trading lower by 1.81% to $78.19 at last check Thursday.
