<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>

This Is What Whales Are Betting On Cleveland-Cliffs

<p>U.S. metals and mining stocks posted their strongest one-day rally of 2024 on Tuesday, driven by China&#8217;s unexpected <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/09/41003814/chinese-stocks-jump-as-central-bank-unveils-major-stimulus-to-spur-economy-a-step-in-the-right-direc">and substantial monetary easing. </a></p>
<p>The People&#8217;s Bank of China&#8217;s (PBoC) stimulus measures, including cuts to the reserve requirement ratio and repo rates, boosted global demand for raw materials, sparking a surge in metal prices and mining stocks.</p>
<p>The <strong>SPDR S&amp;P Metals &amp; Mining ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XME#NYSE">XME</a>) surged 4.2%, marking its best one-day performance since November 2023.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Precious, Industrial Metals Shine</h3>
<p>Gold prices hit yet another fresh record on Tuesday, rising 0.3% to $2,638 per ounce, the highest in history, as the metal benefited from expectations of higher liquidity from global central banks. </p>
<p>The People&#8217;s Bank of China&#8217;s 50-basis-point cut to the reserve requirement ratio is expected to boost bank lending, while the reduction in key interest rates provides relief to heavily indebted sectors. This move is also seen as a strong signal that further monetary easing may be on the horizon.</p>
<p>Silver jumped 1.2%, while copper saw an even bigger rally, surging over 3%. The broad gains in metals prices were driven by expectations of increased Chinese demand, as the country&#8217;s easing measures are aimed at stimulating domestic economic activity.</p>
<p>Last week, the Federal Reserve slashed interest rates by 50 basis points to 4.75%-5%, offering another strong tailwind to metal commodities. </p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Mining Stocks, ETFs Post Gains</h3>
<p>Mining-related stocks and ETFs are enjoying strong performance Tuesday.

Cleveland-Cliffs Unusual Options Activity For September 10

<p>Steelmaker and iron-ore miner <strong>Cleveland-Cliffs Inc.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>) said late Thursday that it is ready to buy <strong>United States Steel Corp.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/X#NYSE">X</a>) assets if the Biden administration <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/09/40724057/biden-administration-reportedly-warns-nippon-steels-14-9b-acquisition-of-us-steel-poses-national-sec">blocks a $14.9-billion deal</a> with <strong>Nippon Steel Corp. </strong>(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NPSCY#OTC">NPSCY</a>).</p>
<p>"Cleveland-Cliffs stands ready to immediately acquire and invest in any and all union-represented assets that U.S. Steel shuts down," Cleveland-Cliffs CEO <strong>Lourenco Goncalves</strong> said in a statement Thursday afternoon.</p>
<p>The announcement came after U.S. Steel said it would "largely pivot away" from its blast furnaces without $2.7 billion in investment in Pennsylvania and Indiana facilities that would come if Nippon is allowed to buy U.S. Steel. </p>
<p>U.S. Steel added that the lack of a deal with Nippon "raises serious questions" about the company maintaining its headquarters in Pittsburgh, a major city in the presidential election battleground state of Pennsylvania.</p>
<p><em>Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/09/40738844/bidens-expected-veto-of-us-steel-deal-is-hunt-for-labor-union-votes-says-top-japan-official">Biden&#8217;s Expected Veto Of US Steel Deal Is Hunt For &#8216;Labor Union Votes,&#8217; Says Top Japan Official</a></em></p>
<p>Goncalves added that his company has the backing of the United Steelworkers union and "ample" financial support from its bank group led by <strong>JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) and <strong>Wells Fargo &amp; Co.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>).</p>
<p>Goncalves also applauded Biden's decision to block the deal on national security grounds and slammed U.S. Steel.</p>
<p>"The last-minute threats by U.S. Steel to shut down integrated steelmaking production, fire union workers, and move their headquarters from Pittsburgh if their deal does not close, is just a pathetic blackmail attempt on the United States government and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania," Goncalves said.</p>
<p>U.S. Steel shares plunged more than 17% Wednesday after the deal was reportedly flagged by the Biden administration as a national security risk. They regained some of that ground Thursday but closed at $29.97, nearly 16% below the $35.60-level where they closed before the news.</p>
<p><strong>Jefferies</strong> maintained a Buy rating on U.S. Steel Thursday but dropped its price target from $47 to $41.</p>
<p>Despite the stock pullback, U.S. Steel's credit remains stable, according to <strong>Evan Mann</strong>, senior high yield analyst with corporate bond research firm <strong>Gimme Credit</strong>.</p>
<p>"While this news disappointed U.S. Steel shareholders with the stock dropping by double digits yesterday, it had little impact on the company's bond yields," Mann said Thursday in a note</p>
<p>His firm kept its credit score for U.S. Steel at Stable.</p>
<p>Mann said that U.S. Steel over the medium term should benefit from a new mini-mill, new galvanized and electric steel lines and a new flat-rolled pellet facility and other upgrades. But that view is tempered by a slowing U.S. economy in the near term, he said.</p>
<p>Mann added that an independent U.S. Steel could consider joint-venture investment with Nippon on some of the U.S. company's assets.</p>
<p>Mann also noted U.S. Steel CEO&nbsp;<strong>David Burritt</strong>'s&nbsp;comments on closing older, less efficient mills and likely moving its home base out of Pittsburgh if the Nippon deal were blocked.</p>
<p>"It is not clear to us how much of this statement was true versus trying to gain political support," Mann said.</p>

<p>タバービル氏は、<strong>Ark Innovation ETF</strong>（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>）のコールオプションとプットオプションも購入した。</p>
<p>この議員は、メディア会社<strong>Paramount Global</strong>（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>）（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>）の株式も売却しているが、この会社は以前、破談になった合併の対象となった。</p>
<p>最新の開示におけるオプション以外の唯一の購入取引は、追加のIntel株と、ヘルスケア企業<strong>Solventum Coproration</strong>（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOLV#NYSE">SOLV</a>）に対する1000ドルから15000ドルのポジションである。</p>
<p>「緊急ニュース：タバービル上院議員が、意図的に金曜日の午後に何百万ドルもの取引を報告し、メディアの報道を回避しました」と、Congresstradingは金曜日に<a href="https://x.com/congresstrading/status/1801709082299994303">ツイート</a>した。</p>

<p><strong>なぜ重要なのか:</strong> タバービル氏は議会の中で複数の委員会に<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/04/38304279/tommy-tuberville-trades-raise-eyebrows-again-senator-sells-put-options-buys-small-biotech-linked-to">参加している</a>。彼の委員会の地位について、彼の銘柄取引に対する注目が高まっており、彼の銘柄取引は、彼の武装軍事委員会、そして農業・栄養・林業委員会のアサインメントに関連する運輸および商品に関連した銘柄のセクターに集中している。</p>
<p>以前にも、ヒュマサイトのような株式取引に対してこのような注目が集まったことはある。</p>
<p>今年の夏以前、タバービル氏が地域銀行<strong>Southern States Bancshares</strong>（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSBK#NASDAQ">SSBK</a>）の株式5万ドルから10万ドルを取得したことは、彼のキャンペーンへの寄付を受けた銀行のCEOも注目を集めた。</p>
<p>彼はまた、CHIPS法がバイデン大統領によって署名される前に、インテルの株式も購入した。 CHIPS法はIntelを含むチップ会社に500億ドルの資金提供を行った。</p>
<p>タバービル氏の代表者は、以前にモンゴメリーアドバタイザーに対して、彼の投資ポートフォリオを管理する金融アドバイザーがいると語っている。</p>
<p>議員の中には、株式やオプションの取引を禁止する法案を提案している者もいるが、タバービル氏は過去にこのような対策に反対し、「ばかげている」と批判している。</p>
<p>「これは本当に、ここに上院議員になりたいと思っている人々の数を削減することになると思います。私は本当にそう思います。これは私たちには必要ありません」と、タバービル氏は2022年に<a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/tommy-tuberville-stock-ban-congress-b2011612.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Independentに語った</a>。</p>
