The action in Advance Auto Parts, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAP#NYSE">AAP</a>) has some investors and traders confused. The company released its earnings report Thursday<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41972250/advance-auto-parts-q3-earnings-miss-new-strategy-outlook-more"> and it was well short of estimates</a>.
But the shares are trading higher. This is why it is our Stock of the Day.
The company reported a loss of four cents per share. This was well below the Street's estimates of a profit of 49 cents. The revenue was also well short of estimates. It came in at $2.15 billion. Analysts were looking for $2.65 billion.
But sometimes the headlines don't tell the whole story.
Operating margin is an important metric studied by analysts. It is a measurement of how profitable a company is.
For example, if a company has an operating margin of 5%, after all costs and expenses, it makes five cents for every dollar of sales. If the margin is 7%, it makes seven cents on every dollar of sales, and so on.
If the operating margin is increasing, it means the company is becoming more efficient and profitable.
Advance Auto's management team predicts an operating margin of 2%-3% in 2025. But their guidance for 2027 is 7%. So, despite current losses, some investors are buying shares because they believe the company will turn things around and that the long-term picture is bullish.

As you can see on the chart, the stock may be breaking out.
Resistance is a large concentration of sell orders that are at, or close to, the same price. Uptrends tend to end and even reverse when they reach resistance.
This was the case with Advanced Auto in September.
If the price eventually moves above resistance, traders say it is a &#8220;breakout.&#8221; This isn't just symbolic. It illustrates an important supply and demand dynamic.
It shows the investors and traders who created the resistance are gone. They have either canceled or finished their orders. This means a large amount of supply has left the market.
This could set the stage for a move higher.
If new buyers enter the market, they will have a hard time finding someone to buy shares from. As a result, they will be forced to pay higher prices to get the interest of sellers. This could force the stock into an uptrend.
On Wall Street, the headlines may not tell the whole story and the initial reaction may be wrong. This could be the case with Advance Auto.

Hillenbrand Posts Better-Than-Expected Earnings, Joins Beazer Homes, Tapestry, Walt Disney And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Thursday

Advance Auto Parts Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAP#NYSE">AAP</a>) reported third-quarter adjusted loss per share of 4 cents, compared <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/b41966872/advance-auto-parts-reports-third-quarter-2024-results-and-completes-comprehensive-review-of-operat" rel="noreferrer noopener">with the street view for EPS of 49 cents</a>. Quarterly sales of $2.15 billion missed the analyst consensus of $2.65 billion. Comparable store sales decreased 2.3%.
On November 1, 2024, the company successfully completed the sale of Worldpac for total cash consideration of approximately $1.5 billion, subject to adjustments for working capital and other items.
The company&#8217;s gross profit increased 11.0% to $907.9 million. This represents 42.3% of net sales, compared to 36.9% in the third quarter of the prior year.
The improvement in leverage was mainly due to lapping the one-time inventory reserve adjustment from the previous year. Additionally, stabilizing product costs helped, though this was offset by strategic pricing investments.

It has identified opportunities that could increase adjusted operating income margin by more than 500 basis points by fiscal 2027. The plan is built on three main areas: store operations, merchandising, and supply chain.
For store operations, the company will reduce its U.S. asset footprint by closing 523 Advance corporate stores, exiting 204 independent locations, and shutting down four distribution centers. It will also standardize the store operating model and improve labor productivity. Additionally, the company plans to accelerate new store openings.
In merchandising, the company aims to improve sourcing to lower first costs and bring products to market faster.
For the supply chain, the company plans to consolidate distribution centers and operate 13 large facilities by 2026. It will also open 60 market hub locations by mid-2027 and optimize transportation routes and freight to reduce costs and improve productivity.
The company exited the quarter with cash and equivalents worth $464.49 million.
Outlook: Advance Auto Parts expects FY24 net sales from continuing operations to be approximately $9 billion, with adjusted EPS from continuing operations ranging from $(0.60) to $0.00.
The company aims to achieve over 500 basis points of operating margin growth by fiscal 2027, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">focusing on core retail improvements.</a>

Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks ended Wednesday on a mixed note, with the Dow Jones and S&amp;P 500 closing the day in green, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq registered a decline.
Crude oil prices remained under the $70 mark but continued to edge up due to concerns about strained supply.
Treasury yields edged up again as investors wait for Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell's speech on the economic outlook.
On the economic data front, the U.S. annual inflation rate rose to 2.6% in October from 2.4% in the previous month, which is in line with market estimates. The CPI rose 0.2% month-over-month in October.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with consumer discretionary, energy, and real estate stocks recording the biggest gains on Wednesday.
However, information technology and communication services stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session lower.

Insights From Analysts:
Jeremy Schwartz, chief investment officer at WisdomTree, said that the CPI data was "even better than reported."
To explain this, he used more real-time data to note that the headline inflation fell from 2.6% to 1.3%.
"The Fed should continue recalibrating to neutral," said Schwartz.

CME Group's FedWatch tool <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">reflected</a> this positive sentiment for another rate cut next month, with its probability rising from 60% to 70%.
Sonu Varghese, Vice President at Carson Group, downplayed fears of a rebound in inflation, stating that there are "disinflationary trends" that will "likely keep a lid" on a rise in prices.
On the other hand, analysts at BlackRock Investment Institute <a href="https://www.blackrock.com/us/individual/insights/blackrock-investment-institute/weekly-commentary">expressed</a> caution on inflation.
"We focus on U.S. CPI to see if inflation will keep falling toward the Fed's 2% target. Short-term inflation has been decreasing, with immigration boosting the labor supply and cooling wage growth. However, recent services PCE data remains sticky, indicating that inflation may settle above 2% in the medium term."
On the equity front, though, Varghese expressed a bullish outlook.
"Overall, economic strengths clearly outweigh areas of weakness, and the opportunities likely have a higher probability of coming to fruition than the threats. The balance favors continued strength for equities, which is why we're maintaining our overweight to stocks, especially US stocks."
WisdomTree and Wharton School economist&nbsp;Jeremy Siegel echoed similar sentiments.
"The ‘bull market' sentiment remains intact, though valuations remain a watch point," he said, adding that the expectations of "lighter regulations" from President-elect Donald Trump's administration would benefit equities.

Earnings Scheduled For November 14, 2024

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed a slight improvement in the overall market sentiment, while the index remained in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Wednesday.
U.S. stocks settled mixed on Wednesday, as investors digested the recent inflation data. The U.S. annual inflation rate rose to 2.6% in October from 2.4% in the previous month, in line with market estimates. The CPI rose 0.2% month-over-month in October.
Shares of Rumble Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RUM#NASDAQ">RUM</a>) fell around 10% on Wednesday after the company posted downbeat third-quarter results. CyberArk Software Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CYBR#NASDAQ">CYBR</a>) reported better-than-expected earnings for its third quarter.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with consumer discretionary, energy, and real estate stocks recording the biggest gains on Wednesday. However, information technology and communication services stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session lower.
The Dow Jones closed higher by around 47 points to 43,958.19 on Wednesday. The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.02% to 5,985.38, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.26% at 19,230.73 during Wednesday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>), Advance Auto Parts, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAP#NYSE">AAP</a>), and Applied Materials, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 67.5, the index remained in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Wednesday, versus a prior reading of 66.5.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

Advance Auto Parts's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAP#NYSE">AAP</a>) short percent of float has risen 4.77% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 10.57 million shares sold short, which is 23.49% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<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.

<h3>Advance Auto Parts Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1730736059_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Advance Auto Parts has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Advance Auto Parts'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>, Advance Auto Parts's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 11.43%, which means the company has more 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/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Peering Into Advance Auto Parts's Recent Short Interest

Former President Donald Trump's four years in the White House offer insights into which stocks and sectors might benefit or suffer if he secures a second term <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">in the 2024 election.</a>
Here's a look back at the worst-performing stocks in 2017, Trump's first year in the White House.
Worst Performing 2017 Stocks: The stock markets saw <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/futures/18/01/11066769/the-stock-markets-rally-under-trump-among-the-best-ever-heres-how-his">impressive gains in 2017</a>, which were among the best ever for a president's first year in the White House.
The S&amp;P 500, tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), gained 21.7% in 2017, an impressive gain compared to the 12.0% increase in 2016. Presidential election years have historically outperformed other years.
While many stocks in the S&amp;P 500 were up in 2017, there were also plenty of names that finished the year in the red. Here's a look back at the 10 worst-performing stocks in the S&amp;P 500 from 2017, as reported previously by Marketwatch.
<ol>
<li>Baker Hughes (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BKR#NASDAQ">BKR</a>): -51%, energy</li>
<li>Range Resources (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RRC#NYSE">RRC</a>): -50%, energy</li>
<li>Under Armour (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UA#NYSE">UA</a>)(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAA#NYSE">UAA</a>): -50%, consumer discretionary</li>
<li>Scana Corp: -46%, utilities</li>
<li>Envision Healthcare Corp: -45%, health care</li>
<li>General Electric (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>): -45%, industrials</li>
<li>Mattel Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAT#NASDAQ">MAT</a>): -44%, consumer discretionary</li>
<li>Chesapeake Energy Corp (NASDSAQ:EXE): -44%, energy</li>
<li>Advance Auto Parts (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAP#NYSE">AAP</a>): -41%, consumer discretionary</li>
<li>Signet Jewelers (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SIG#NYSE">SIG</a>): -40%, consumer discretionary</li>
</ol>
It's important to note that some of the companies have undergone some changes since this old list. 
<ul>
<li>Baker Hughes previously traded as BHGE and was merged with the oil and gas division of General Electric. </li>
<li>Scana Corp was acquired by Dominion Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/D#NYSE">D</a>) in 2019. </li>
<li>Envision Healthcare underwent Chapter 11 bankruptcy and now is two separate privately owned companies. </li>
<li>Chesapeake Energy changed its name to Expand Energy after merging with Southwestern Energy. The company also underwent bankruptcy protection in 2020, emerging successfully from the protection in 2021.</li>
</ul>

<li>Congress Is Making Huge Investments. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/gov-trades/?utm_source=BZprocontent102924">Get Tips On What They Bought And Sold Ahead Of The 2024 Election With Our Easy-to-Use Tool</a></li>
</ul>
Why It's Important: The list of the top 10 worst performers in 2017 overlaps with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/10/41584466/these-10-stocks-were-the-best-s-p-500-performers-in-2017-when-trump-was-president-will-history-r">best performing stocks </a>that Benzinga recently shared.
Stocks in utilities, health care, industrials, and consumer discretionary appeared on both the best and worst performer lists. Top-performing stocks included technology and homebuilders, with no overlap among the worst performers.
Energy is likely a potential big loser based on the trends above if Trump wins the 2024 election. What likely happened in 2017 that could happen again is a run-up in stocks during the election year and then a potential selloff in the year after as investors take profits.
While some believe that energy stocks could be winners under Trump, past results could suggest otherwise. A president who supports more drilling and has different foreign policies could also impact the price of oil barrels and lower energy companies&#8217; profits.
With less than two weeks until the 2024 election, investors are likely positioning their portfolio based on a Trump or Kamala Harris victory in some regards. With a close election predicted, investors may want to look to sectors that could benefit under either candidate.
Freedom Capital Markets Chief Global Strategist Jay Woods previously<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/24/08/40515453/exclusive-trump-or-harris-12-stocks-2-etfs-could-win-no-matter-whos-president-says-market-strate"> shared some sectors </a>and stocks to watch with Benzinga that could benefit regardless of whether Trump or Harris wins the 2024 election.
Woods named defense stocks and cybersecurity stocks as two of the top sectors to watch ahead of the 2024 election.
"I think you've got to watch this sector closely," Woods said of the defense sector.
Woods said defense stocks could continue to benefit from geopolitical concerns and the world&#8217;s many negative events.
