<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 Analog Devices'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>, Analog Devices's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.67%, 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>

Is the Market Bullish or Bearish on Analog Devices?

President Donald Trump has set up a new body within the Commerce Department to manage the CHIPS and Science Act, 2022. 
What Happened: A new entity, the United States Investment Accelerator within the Commerce Department, will now oversee the CHIPS Act program, as established by an executive order signed by Trump on Monday.
Despite Trump&#8217;s past criticism of the bipartisan legislation, the White House said in its fact sheet that the new office will focus on &#8220;negotiating much better CHIPS Act deals&#8221; and streamlining investment processes through reduced regulatory burdens and faster permitting.
According to the <a href="https://www.semiconductors.org/chip-supply-chain-investments/">Semiconductor Industry Association</a>, the CHIPS Program has granted awards worth $32.5417 billion and provided loans up to $5.85 billion to 32 companies across 23 states. 
However, the new entity — Investment Accelerator that will be controlling the CHIPS Act, not only plans to expedite corporate investments but promises to deliver &#8221; the benefit of the bargain for taxpayers,&#8221; as per the Whit House fact sheet.
Other primary goals of the body include;
<ul>
<li>Reducing regulatory burdens</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Speeding up permitting;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Coordinating responses to investor issues across multiple Federal agencies; </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Increasing access to national resources;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Facilitating collaboration with national laboratories; </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Working with all 50 state governments and their economic development organizations.</li>
</ul>
Here are the U.S.-listed beneficiaries that have received grants under the CHIPS and Science Act, 2022 in the past.

Why It Matters: Trump has been vocal about his criticism of the CHIPS Act. On March 4, during his joint address to Congress, he said, &#8220;Your Chips Act is a horrible, horrible thing.&#8221;
He also urged U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson to &#8220;get rid&#8221; of it and use &#8220;whatever is left over&#8221; to &#8220;reduce debt or any other reason you want to.&#8221;
However, the White House&#8217;s new plan has passed on the management of the act to the new entity. Since his time in office, Trump has been able to convince companies to invest in the U.S.
In early March, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (NYSE: TSM revealed its plans to inject another $100 billion into U.S. advanced semiconductor manufacturing, significantly expanding its ongoing $65 billion Arizona initiative and bringing total investment to $165 billion.
Similarly, the Magnificent 7 companies are widely expected to spend more than $330 billion on capex in 2025. While the chipmaker Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) hasn't explicitly mentioned a target during its earnings call, the iPhone maker Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) broadly expects to spend $500 billion over the next four years. The remaining companies, however, have provided a specific target for 2025.

Days After Calling The CHIPS Act A 'Horrible Thing,' Donald Trump Sets Up New Entity For 'Negotiating Much Better...Deals:' Here's More

Following his industry update report, BofA Securities analyst Vivek Arya spotlighted his three diversified <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">semiconductor top picks </a>on Friday.
Recovery processes will be staggered and related to company-specific exposures. Still, the bottom seems to be near for most, with industrial semiconductors leading the way (improving PMIs, Europe re-industrialization) and auto semiconductors following in the second half of 2025 if/when OEM/EV production data points improve.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/emerging-markets/25/03/44535967/tariff-fears-and-ease-in-demand-hype-slows-semiconductor-expansion" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tariff Fears And Ease In Demand Hype Slows Semiconductor Expansion</a>
Arya acknowledged lingering risks around tariffs and economic contraction but noted that diversified stocks are defensive and tend to outperform when SOX declines &gt;10%.
In order from &#8220;lower beta&#8221; in recovery to &#8220;higher beta,&#8221; Arya&#8217;s top picks are Analog Devices, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADI#NASDAQ">ADI</a>) ($280 price target), NXP Semiconductors (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXPI#NASDAQ">NXPI</a>) ($235 price target), and ON Semiconductor Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ON#NASDAQ">ON</a>) $60 price target.
The top analog/industrial-semi pick is ideal for defensive exposure as Analog Devices has outperformed the PHLX Semiconductor Sector 23 out of the last 29 times the index declined +10% since 2010. Higher confidence in the second half of 2025 recovery supported by the analog semiconductor market returning to growth (according to SIA data) and sequential KPI improvement. FIFO recovery &#8211; consensus expects Analog Devices to rebound fastest in calendar 2025 at +13% sales growth (peers -15% to +10%).
Using the fiscal 2018 and 2019 baselines, Analog Devices&#8217; industrial sales are still 15-20% below the trend, leaving upside headroom. The superior free cash flow generation with a line of sight to 37% margins in fiscal 2025, well above peers&#8217; average of 17%, while buybacks may double with $10 billion new authorization.
Arya liked the relatively benign sales peak-to-trough correction to date at -18%, tied with Infineon for the shallowest downcycle thus far among peers, indicating prudent execution. The multiple NXP Semiconductors-specific product cycles make up ~40% of auto sales and accelerate growth in recovery, including software-defined vehicle products. The recent acquisitions of Kinara, TTTech, and Aviva Links enhance the total portfolio value proposition.
ON Semiconductor has weathered a -30% drawdown year-to-date, but as per Arya, the stock setup is compelling, given high leverage to any improvement in Auto/EV sentiment. Estimates reset hard post-fourth-quarter earnings, now show calendar 2025 sales down -15%, below peers ranging from -13% to +13%. 
Even with tariff and demand uncertainty, much seems baked in. The steady Silicon carbide share gains at Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and intense exposure at China EVs where 800v demand reflecting.
Allegro MicroSystems, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALGM#NASDAQ">ALGM</a>) deal, if secured, may deliver 4%-7% accretion by calendar 2027 while augmenting the sensor portfolio. Despite the downturn, free cash flow % could improve to mid-20% from calendar 2024&#8217;s 17%. On the calendar 2026 EV/FCF basis, 11 times multiple is 50% below the 5-year median of ~20 times.
Price Actions: ADI stock is down 3.52% at $201.58 at last check Friday. NXPI is down 4.79%, and ON is down 6.03%.

Shares of semiconductor stocks are trading lower. The sector has been under pressure amid tariff uncertainty.

Shares of semiconductor stocks are trading lower amid recession worries due to uncertainty regarding tariffs and trade policy. President Trump said there is a "period of transition."

President Donald Trump during his joint address to Congress on Tuesday evening called for ending the CHIPS Act, which provides manufacturing incentives to semiconductor companies setting up their facilities in the U.S.
What Happened: During a primetime address to Congress on Tuesday, the president criticized the legislation, saying, "Your Chips Act is a horrible, horrible thing." Trump urged U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson to "get rid" of it and use "whatever is left over" to "reduce debt or any other reason you want to."
According to <a href="https://www.semiconductors.org/chips-incentives-awards/">Semiconductor Industry Association</a>, the CHIPS Program has fueled investments in American semiconductor manufacturing. About $38 billion in grants and loans have been awarded to 32 companies across 23 states, mobilizing over $380 billion in private investment and creating an estimated 145,000 new jobs by 2030. 
Most notably, the Departments of Defense and Commerce awarded Intel Corp. up to $3 billion in CHIPS Act funding to expand domestic manufacturing of advanced semiconductors, strengthening the U.S. supply chain for critical national security needs.
Taiwan Semiconductor Mfg. Co. Ltd., on the other hand, was the recipient of $6.6 billion worth of grants, out of which $5 billion was a loaned amount for setting up projects worth $65 billion in Phoenix, Arizona.
Here are the U.S.-listed beneficiaries that have received grants under the CHIPS Act.

Why It Matters: A few hours before Trump&#8217;s Congress address, TSMC announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/03/44124444/taiwan-semiconductor-rises-as-100-billion-u-s-expansion-defies-market-downturn">plans to invest</a> an additional $100 billion in advanced semiconductor manufacturing in the United States. Building on a $65 billion project already underway in Arizona, this expansion brings the company&#8217;s total U.S. investment to a massive $165 billion. 
Addressing TSMC&#8217;s latest investment, Trump said, &#8220;All that was important to them was they didn't want to pay the tariffs. So they came and they're building. And many other companies are coming. We don't have to give them money, we just want to protect our businesses and our people, and they will come because they won't have to pay tariffs if they build in America.&#8221;

Trump Seeks To End CHIPS Act: Who Stands To Lose? Here's A List Of Beneficiaries That Could Be Affected

Shares of chip stocks are trading higher, rebounding after falling this week in sympathy with NVIDIA.

<img alt="Money in the hands of the people — Photo" class="article-image-one" src="https://www.marketbeat.com/logos/articles/med_20250224163803_massive-buybacks-3-stocks-returning-big-cash-to-sh.jpg" style="height:800px; width:1200px" />
When it comes to share buyback authorizations, not all programs create equal value. A $1 billion repurchase program can have a very different impact depending on the size of the company authorizing it.
The greater the value of the buyback program compared to the size of the company, the more positive an impact it could have on earnings per share (EPS).
Thus, looking at the size of a company&#39;s total buyback capacity versus its overall value helps determine how significant an impact buybacks could have on the share price. Below are three firms that now have buyback capacity equal to close to 10% or more of their market capitalization. This percentage is large and could have a significant positive impact on shares.
However, it is important to note that just because a company plans to buy back shares doesn&#39;t automatically mean shares will rise. All figures below use data and prices as of the Feb. 24 market close unless otherwise indicated.
<h2>Fiserv: Big-Time Buyback Capacity With a History of Utilizing It</h2>
First is payments company <a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NYSE/FI/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Fiserv (NYSE: </a><a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fi#NYSE">FI</a>). The company <a href="https://investors.fiserv.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/104/fiserv-announces-share-repurchase-authorization" rel="noopener" target="_blank">recently announced</a> a buyback authorization of 60 million shares, in addition to any other repurchase authorization still outstanding. On its Feb. 5 earnings call, Fiserv executives announced that they ended 2024 with 18 million shares in buyback authorization. Thus, the firm&#39;s total buyback capacity is approximately 78 million shares now.
[content-module:Forecast|NYSE:FI]
Although most companies quote their buybacks in dollar figures, investors can calculate the dollar figure with some quick math.
Multiplying 78 million by Fiserv&#39;s share price of $232 puts the value of its buyback capacity at over $18 billion. With a market cap of $130 billion, the company&#39;s buyback capacity is large, equal to nearly 14% of its value.
Fiserv has a strong history of actually using the buyback capacity it has authorized. In 2024, the company spent $5.5 billion on repurchases. That figure has been rising steadily since 2022. That year, the company only repurchased $2.5 billion worth of shares. This is an increase in buyback spending of 120%.
It moderately outpaces the 103% rise in Fiserv shares from the end of 2022 to the beginning of 2025. This indicates that the firm is continuing to aggressively repurchase shares despite the strong rise in its stock price.
<h2>Analog Devices: Chip Stock With Large Buyback Capacity and Notable Tech Dividend Payer</h2>
Next up is <a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NASDAQ/ADI/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Analog Devices (NASDAQ: </a><a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/adi#NASDAQ">ADI</a>). The <a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/compare-stocks/semiconductor-stocks/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">semiconductor</a> company recently announced a new <a href="https://investor.analog.com/news-releases/news-release-details/analog-devices-raises-quarterly-dividend-8-and-increases-share" rel="noopener" target="_blank">buyback program of $10 billion</a>. This brings its total buyback capacity to approximately $11.5 billion. Compared to its market cap of over $117 billion, the company&#39;s repurchase capacity is equal to 9.8% of the firm&#39;s value.
[content-module:Forecast|NASDAQ:ADI]
In addition to adding substantial buyback capacity, the firm also announced a substantial increase to its dividend of 8%. This gives Analog an indicated dividend yield of nearly 1.7%.
Although that&#39;s not impressive compared to many firms, this yield is strong compared to firms in its sector and industry.&nbsp;
Compared to U.S. large-cap tech stocks, this yield is among the top 20 largest. When looking at U.S. large-cap semiconductor stocks, it is in the top six.
Analog Devices uses its buyback capacity much more slowly than Fiserv. Over the past 21 years, Analog has repurchased an average of $760 million worth of shares each year.
However, this slower pace could be a sign that the firm is more selective in repurchasing shares. For example, repurchasing shares when the company&#39;s value is lower can mean that each dollar spent goes further.
<h2>Allison Transmission: Strong Buyback Capacity Stock Achieving Record Revenue and Earnings</h2>
Last is <a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NYSE/ALSN/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Allison Transmission (NYSE: </a><a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/alsn#NYSE">ALSN</a>). The company recently announced an <a href="https://ir.allisontransmission.com/news-releases/news-release-details/allison-transmission-announces-8-increase-quarterly-dividend-1" rel="noopener" target="_blank">additional $1 billion share buyback authorization</a>. This brings its total buyback capacity to $5 billion.
[content-module:Forecast|NYSE:ALSN]
With a market capitalization of $8.4 billion, this capacity equates to a massive 59% of the firm&#39;s value.
In 2024, the company spent more than $250 million on buying back shares. While low compared to its current capacity, this pace is significant compared to its relatively low market cap.
Allison may not be a typical high-flying stock, yet it has posted an impressive total return of 163% over the last three years. That is over three times higher than the total return of the <a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/types-of-stock/sp-500-stocks/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">S&amp;P 500</a> over that period and the highest return of the firms on this list.
In 2024, Allison reported&nbsp;<a href="https://ir.allisontransmission.com/news-releases/news-release-details/allison-transmission-announces-record-fourth-quarter-and-full-0" rel="noopener" target="_blank">record full-year sales</a> of $3.2 billion and record diluted EPS of $8.31. These numbers increased by 6% and 12% compared to 2023, respectively.

Alibaba, Super Micro Computer And XPeng Are Among Top 10 Large Cap Gainers Last Week (Feb 17-Feb 21): Are The Others In Your Portfolio?

Trading in Analog Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADI#NASDAQ">ADI</a>) is flat Thursday. This follows yesterday&#8217;s gain of over 21% which was driven by an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/earnings-beats/25/02/43855595/analog-devices-posts-q4-beat-industry-shows-early-signs-cyclical-recovery-analysts">earnings release</a>.
It isn't a surprise the rally stalled out where it did. Stocks frequently hit resistance at price levels that had been resistance before. That's the case with Analog and the $242 level.
Good traders can recognize which price levels are important in markets. They know that when a stock reaches one of these levels, the tendency is for them to either reverse, break out, or break down. These are called support and resistance levels.
Back in May when ADI reached $242, the sellers came out of the woodwork. They overpowered the buyers and pushed the price lower.
When this happened, many of the traders and investors who bought shares around $242 came to believe their decision to buy was a mistake. Some of them decided to sell their shares, but they didn't want to lose money.
As a result, they made the decision to hold onto their shares and eventually sell if they can get out at breakeven. So, when the stock returned to $242.00 in July they placed sell orders. This large concentration of these orders created resistance at the same price that had been resistance before.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="547" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20150030/120-1024x547.png" alt="" class="wp-image-791787" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20150030/120-1024x547.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20150030/120-300x160.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20150030/120-768x410.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20150030/120.png 1518w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>

Now that the price has returned to this level, a similar dynamic is occurring. People who bought shares around $242 in July are placing sell orders so they can finally exit the position at breakeven. Buyer remorse has once again caused resistance to form at a price that had previously been resistance.
When stocks reach important resistance levels, they tend not to stay at them for an extended period of time. They tend to either reverse and sell off, or break out and move higher.
This is why Analog is on the radar screen of many traders as a possible idea.
If the resistance breaks and the shares move higher, this will mean that the sellers have left the market. They have finished or canceled.&nbsp; This could be a setup for another bullish move.
If buyers enter the market, they may have a tough time finding someone to buy shares from. They may need to push the price higher to draw sellers back into the market. This could force an uptrend to form.
If the resistance doesn't break, sellers may fear missing out and reduce the prices they are willing to sell for. If they start to undercut each other this could force a downtrend to form.
Important price levels are like a fork in the road. When stocks reach them, they tend to go one way or another. Some savvy traders are waiting to see which way Analog Devices will trend before they take positions.
