Benzinga's 'Stock Whisper' Index: 5 Stocks Investors Secretly Monitor But Don't Talk About Yet

Xylem's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XYL#NYSE">XYL</a>) short percent of float has fallen 11.73% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.99 million shares sold short, which is 1.58% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.0 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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Xylem 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 Xylem'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>, Xylem's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.26%, 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>

$100 Invested In Xylem 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Mark Cuban extended his support to President Donald Trump&#8216;s new &#8216;Gold Card&#8217; scheme to obtain U.S. citizenship if these cards were sold to corporations who hire immigrants. Billionaire entrepreneur and Dallas Mavericks owner added that the &#8220;H1b Visa game is ridiculous.&#8221;
What Happened: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43985233/mark-cuban-calls-deductibles-the-biggest-problem-in-healthcare-system-needs-to-be-redesigned">Cuban</a> proposed a new way for high-skilled workers to obtain U.S. citizenship in his latest X post.
Agreeing with President Trump on generating revenue via handing over citizenships, Cuban added that corporations could pay $5 million for an employee earning over $500,000 per year to get immediate citizenship, provided they pass a thorough background check.
Cuban argues that if a person is highly valuable to a company, the company should be willing to pay for the right to employ them in the U.S. He further suggests that if companies are not going to hire American workers, they should at least contribute to the tax base for the privilege of hiring foreign talent.
The billionaire investor also believes the current H-1B visa system, which uses a lottery and has caps, is &#8220;broken.&#8221;

This comes after Trump addressed the amount of revenue that could be generated via selling &#8216;Gold Cards&#8217; during a press conference. He said, &#8220;If we sell a million &#8211; that&#8217;s $5 trillion… if we sell 10 million, that&#8217;s $50 trillion. That means our debt is totally paid off, and we have $15 trillion above that.&#8221;

Why It Matters: As the President and corporate tycoons agree to generate revenue via this route, a 2024 report by the American Immigration Council highlighted that immigrant entrepreneurs make up 22.6% of all entrepreneurs nationwide.
According to the study, from the New American companies that made the 2024 Fortune 500 list, 46%, or 230 companies, were founded by immigrants or their children and each company employs about 67,332 workers.
Here are the names of a few listed entities that are new entrants in the Fortune 500 list, hiring and led by immigrants.

Analysts typically assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

Baird Maintains Outperform on Xylem, Raises Price Target to $148

U.S. stocks advanced midday Tuesday, demonstrating resilience despite escalating geopolitical tensions and trade uncertainties between the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">world&#8217;s two largest economies.</a>
China responded to President Donald Trump&#8216;s 10% import tariff with targeted countermeasures, including restrictions on key mineral exports to the U.S. and tariffs on American energy products.
Beijing is raising tariffs by 10%-15% on select U.S. imports, including coal, liquefied natural gas, crude oil, agricultural machinery and vehicles. Additionally, China added PVH Corp.

Market participants had anticipated a call between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday, but media reports indicated the conversation would not happen today.
The trade developments had an immediate impact on oil markets, with West Texas Intermediate crude futures plunging 3% overnight to as low as $70 per barrel.
